Have you ever tried the method of planting by the moon? by Sandy Hollingsworth

Have you ever tried the method of planting by the moon? Although most scientists have much skepticism since scientific evidence of the moon’s influence on plant growth is lacking, it is intriguing and has been practiced by believers for centuries. A class at the past Timberline Gardens in Arvada inspired further pondering of the anecdotal evidence. The teacher had practiced these methods for decades and was a true believer reporting measurable differences in seed sprouting successes by their growers. Planting by the moon is a theory by which gardeners plant on dates based on the phases of the moon and its purported influence on water in the soil and plants. The theory is coupled with the moon traveling through each of the twelve zodiac signs staying in each for two or three days, then these dates are used for planning. Water and earth signs are considered “fruitful” days to sow, while air and fire signs are considered “barren” days. You can decide what you think as you read references
