On certain days it is better to plant, transplant, and on others it is preferable to water, weed or treat the garden from pests.

Garden work in April

It's time to finish pruning trees and shrubs. Pruning only in dry weather, so as not to expose the skeletal branches of trees to the danger of contracting diseases: cytosporosis, black cancer, etc.

Cut branches, pieces of bark do not leave for a long time in the garden, remove immediately and destroy.

Examine the tree trunks. Lubricate wounds from mice with garden pitch and tie with a dark film.

Close the hollows: rake out the dust, fill it with gravel or broken bricks, fill it with a solution of cement and sand. In the future, when pruning, do not leave stumps - they lead to hollows.

In April, we will hasten to plant trees and shrubs until the buds open. When choosing seedlings, check the condition of the roots: they should not have thickenings of root cancer, and the branches should not be dry, broken.

Do not save on food area, it will be difficult to replant mature trees.

In areas with high standing groundwater, plant plants with a superficial root system: sea buckthorn, honeysuckle, and other berry bushes. For dwarf and columnar trees, mounds will have to be added.

Sprinkle berry layering to get new bushes. Plant blackcurrant cuttings. Try a fairly simple rooting method: stick a cutting into a raw potato and plant it in the ground, leaving 2 buds on the surface.

Before the leaves begin to grow, clean the strawberry plantation from dry leaves and other plant residues and burn them, as gray rot pathogens accumulate in them. Correct the rows with strawberries: add earth to the bare roots, dig deep plants, free the hearts. In the middle of the month, you can plant new sockets in places of attacks.

Removing plant residues, cut branches, along with them, you remove the wintering stages of many pests and pathogens.

At the very beginning of April, weevils-flower beetles climb into the crowns of trees, feeding on swelling buds. You can block their path with non-drying adhesive belts, put on trunks, closer to the ground. It is necessary to cut ribbons from thick paper or cling film. Fix them tightly on the stem and grease in the middle with ALT glue.

The scutes of the California scale insect are dark gray, rounded. Under them are the larvae. On boles and bases of skeletal branches under exfoliating areas of the old bark, adult individuals of the pear sucker hibernate. The eggs of the apple sucker, despite their small size (0.3 mm), are noticeable on the dark bark, annelids, fruitlets, at the base of the side branches.

Aphid eggs are laid on annual growths, near the buds, under the scales of the bark. There are many of them on the branches of currants and gooseberries. Old 5-b-year-old branches of blackcurrant are most often inhabited by glass-box, currant gall midge, their ends are affected by powdery mildew. When pruning, they are removed first of all.

In the spring, with the resumption of the active life of plants, their pests are also activated. Spring development and pathogens begin. April is a very important time to protect the garden from them. The most suitable time for this is the beginning of bud break, the “green cone” stage.

Green cone.

If there are an alarmingly large number of pests and pathogens and they cannot be dealt with by agrotechnical methods, you will have to spray trees and berry bushes with insecticides: fufanon-nova, kemifos, alatar, actellik, kimmix, sempai. Against diseases, fungicides can be added to them: rayok, abiga-peak, hom. For stone fruits from fungal diseases, “blue spraying” with a 3% Bordeaux mixture (300 g of copper sulfate + 400 g of lime) is effective at this time.

In a cold, lingering spring, when the leaves begin to unfold, and the roots are not yet working (the earth has not warmed up), it is very useful to spray the trees with a solution - for 1 liter of water - 2 drops of epin-extra, 2-4 drops of zircon, 4 drops of uniflor growth and fitoverm: (4-5 drops).

During the budding period, the drug Ovary or Bud can be added to this solution (according to the instructions).

These drugs strengthen the immunity of plants to diseases, stress, accelerate the development and ripening of fruits, and improve their taste.

Lunar seed calendar for May 2018

The southern regions have already begun sowing, and in the Middle lane, the Urals, Siberia, the North-West, everything is just beginning.

Our Earth is only a part of the universe, which is subject to this most complex organism and its systemic cosmobiological rhythms. Stars and planets influence each other, and the stronger, the smaller the distance between space bodies.

The eternal satellite of our native planet, the Moon, due to its location, has an explicit and implicit, but rather strong influence on all earthly existence. Every 12.5 hours, under its influence, the gravitational field shifts, causing a tidal effect - an increase and decrease in the water level in large reservoirs (seas and oceans).

The movement of juices and other processes in plants are also subject to the influence of the moon. It occurs through light and electromagnetic impulses, as well as other planetary interactions perceived by plants. Therefore, the gardener's actions in accordance with these processes or contrary to them can both significantly increase the return of planted crops, and nullify their own efforts.

The sowing lunar calendar for 2018 was compiled taking into account all the nuances and provides an opportunity to optimally carry out agrotechnical work on the site without the need to conduct your own calculations and look at the moon in the sky.

With the advice provided in lunar calendar, you can find out which days are favorable, and which, on the contrary, are not suitable for gardening.

In April 2018, the new moon falls on April 16th. The full moon will come on April 30, 2018.

The sowing calendar for April 2018 indicates the most favorable dates for sowing seeds, transplanting plants and caring for them.

There are days in the month when planting is generally not recommended. They fall on the 15th, 16th, 17th and 30th.

care days fruit trees and bushes should also be checked against the lunar calendar.

Experienced people always notice the weather in April, because some natural processes can predict what the upcoming harvest will be like.

If the end of April is rich in warm rains, you should expect a bountiful harvest.

The frogs begin to croak - it's time to sow the oats.

April melt water flows on clear nights - there will be good weather when harvesting wheat.

If there were thunderstorms on the Annunciation, get ready to collect a lot of nuts, if there is frost, wind or fog - for a high-yielding year. On the day of the holiday it rains - in the summer there will be a lot of mushrooms in the forest.

If no swallows arrive in April, the spring will be cold.

The lunar month consists of a rhythmic change of two main states of the moon: growing (arriving) and waning. The beginning of each new phase of this process is the new and full moon, respectively. Full moons occur when the Moon is in that position with respect to the Sun, when it receives sunlight at its maximum and when its surface is at its maximum. New Moons occur when the Moon is on the same line between the Sun and the Earth, and therefore it is impossible to see the sunlight reflected by the Moon. The waxing moon is observed between the new moon and the full moon, and the waning moon is observed between the full and new moon. The growing Moon corresponds to the first and second quarters (phases) of the Moon. The waning moon is the third and fourth quarters of the cycle.

The influence of the growing moon on plant growth is positive: it good time to stimulate the growth of plantings, as well as their reproduction. The phase of the waning moon is the ideal time for all types of plant care, as well as for the fight against garden pests.

In addition, from centuries of experience and many traditions, it is known that the bioelectric field of plants fluctuates, that they grow and absorb water with irregular intensity. A rapid growth rate is often followed by a dormant period. So, the dormant period necessarily occurs immediately after fruiting. Having these ideas about the influence of the Moon on the growth and development of plants, it is easy to understand that competent "synchronization" of plant growth phases with the phases of the Moon gives both healthier plants and a more abundant harvest.

It is not for nothing that the lunar gardening calendar is compiled in such a way as to sow seeds on the full moon: our ancestors knew very well that seeds would germinate at this time at a faster pace. However, there is another approach: you can sow on the new moon to ensure germination before the growth spurt of this plant, which falls on the full moon.
