Planting flowers according to the lunar calendar in 2021

In the modern world, it is difficult to find a garden plot without flowers. To decorate flower beds, gardeners make up compositions in advance and plan plantings.

This work is carried out annually. To make their work easier, gardeners use a flower seed sowing calendar. Why do you need this data, and how does it benefit from following the calendar recommendations? Experts and those who simply grow flowers for pleasure know that each crop requires specific care and conditions. In our climate, many flower varieties cannot grow without human help. And the lunar sowing calendar for flowers for the year contains information about favorable and unfavorable days for sowing seedlings, picking, watering and feeding. There is useful information in it for any action of the gardener.

Seedling calendar

Almost all types of flowers are grown in seedlings.

This is especially true for exotic or very demanding varieties. Flowers that cannot be transplanted are considered the only exception. In this case, they are grown by direct seeding into the ground.

Seeds of annual, biennial and perennial crops are sown on seedlings. We list the advantages of the seedling method:

  1. Annuals in this case will bloom earlier, and varieties with a long growing season will have time to please with their flowering before frost.
  2. It is possible to get quality plants from very small seeds. If such seeds are sown directly into the ground, then they may either not grow at all, or give very weak plants. Another compelling argument is to pay attention to small-seeded flower seedlings. They need good lighting from the first days of sowing. Therefore, when growing seedlings, there is a guarantee that the gardener will provide the seedlings with enough light.

There are several reasons why gardeners in 2021 use a calendar for planting flowers for seedlings:

  1. The calendar contains the exact dates of auspicious days for sowing garden flowers for seedlings.
  2. The calendar contains knowledge about the change in the phases of the moon and the influence of the luminary on the development of plants. It is impossible to avoid this influence, and it is very easy to use it with benefit if you have a calendar table.
  3. In 2021, planting calendar recommendations will be especially helpful when growing new varieties.
  4. In each month, several days are indicated on which it is recommended to carry out certain work. This allows gardeners from regions with different climates to choose the most suitable numbers.

To explain the structure of the calendar, let's turn to scientific data.

Flowers and moonbeats

The influence of the moon on the growth and development of flowers is very great. Indeed, the movement of fluids on Earth depends on the position of the Moon in the sky. Flowers, like other plants, are fed with water.

If you take into account the influence of the planet on flower crops, then you need to remember that during the growing moon, the sap moves up. When the moon wanes, the movement changes direction towards the roots.

The lunar calendar tells gardeners the best days for planting flowers. This is the day in which the sap flow is directed upward to the leaves, and the roots lose their elasticity and become pliable. In this state, they can easily tolerate a transplant, and the flower takes root well.
Also, gardeners noticed that if you sow seeds on an unfavorable day, then you can not wait for a good result. Even high quality seeds produce poor shoots.

Briefly about the influence of the Moon on the development of flowers, we can say this:

  1. Growing is the period from new moon to full moon. At this time, tall and lush varieties are planted.They also plan to sow plants with a high stem, but bulbous ones at this time should not be disturbed. It is also better to wait with a transplant of indoor flowers.
  2. Waning - from full moon to new moon. Now the flowers grow well roots, so it's time to cut. At the same time are planted bulbous and tuberous flowers or dig them up for storage
  3. On the days of the new moon, the plants are given rest and they try not to do any work.
  4. The full moon is the time for collecting seeds and cultivating the land.
  5. Eclipses are also included in the list of unfavorable days for planting or other activities.

In order to more effectively apply the recommendations of the lunar sowing calendar, consider what types of flowers are allowed for sowing during the year.

Astrologers' advice

The moon goes through its own cycle every month. Depending on the phase of the passage, the types of work that gardeners can carry out on the site change. We are interested in the question of when to plant flowers according to the lunar calendar.

Let's start from the beginning of the year.

January

A month with low daylight hours and low temperatures. Therefore, the list of colors for sowing is limited. In early January, the lunar calendar recommends sowing the following types of flowers for seedlings:

  • Shabo carnation so that the plant blooms in May-June;
  • tuberous and ever-flowering begonia for the same purpose;
  • aquilegia, clematis, perennial delphinium, primrose, perennial violet, irises, lavender, lumbago and varieties that require seed stratification (stimulation by low temperatures);
  • perennials with tough-like seeds, covered with a dense shell.

The second half of January is suitable for sowing lobelia, zonal and ivy-leaved pelargonium, heliotrope, and graceful cineraria. You can continue sowing primrose.

To make it easier to navigate by days, a small table has been compiled, which indicates the important days.

February

More favorable month for planting due to the increased amount of light. In February, they are already starting to grow seedlings:

  • snapdragon (antirrinum), coleus, turkish carnation, fragrant tobacco, gray levkoy, salvia, passionflower, narrow-leaved lavender, seaside cineraria, viola, daisy;
  • Shabo carnations and ever-flowering begonias, if they didn't manage to do it in January;
  • letniks for hanging containers - petunias, vervains, tunbergia;
  • fuchsia, cyclamen, balsam, gloxinia for indoor planting and in the garden.

The end of February is favorable for container marigolds, nemesia and gatsanii.

It is convenient to adjust the planting of flowers according to the lunar calendar for February 2021 according to the table.

March

The busiest month for gardeners. In addition to flowers, plantings of other crops are planned in it. In order to wait for the flowering of their pets in time, they plan to sow for March:

  • annuals - ageratum, godetia, levkoy, aster, gelchisium;
  • salvia, snapdragon, fragrant tobacco - in addition to the February sowing;
  • all types of petunias - ampelous, terry annual;
  • bells, annual phlox, Iberis, climbing cobea, verbena, lobularia (alissum).

The flower planting calendar table will help summer residents in a busy month of planting.

April

In April, many gardeners begin direct seeding into the ground. To speed up germination, the seeds are pre-soaked in water.

Important! The sowing date, according to the lunar calendar, is counted from the day the seeds are soaked, when the development processes begin in them.

But for flowers grown using seedlings, the flowering period begins earlier, so the recommendations of the flower planting calendar for 2021 remain relevant.

In April, seeds are sown for seedlings:

  • fast growing - sweet peas, zinnia, marigolds, annual phlox, clarke;
  • perennial - delphinium, aquilegia (catchment).

You need to choose a day taking into account the recommendations of the lunar body.

May

Gardeners consider this month the most capricious. The most important time to plant flowers can be very cold or very hot. During this period, most often the seeds of annuals with a short growing season are sown directly into the ground. An excellent option is to cover the seedlings with foil.In May, perennial bushes are also divided and the seeds of asters, marigolds, daisies, cornflowers are planted. Corms bloom well if planted on suitable dates of the lunar calendar.

June

Landing is scheduled in June:

  • decorative flowers - balsam, amaranth, begonia, coleus;
  • biennials for seedlings in open ground or a greenhouse - Turkish carnations, forget-me-nots, viola, daisies, hesperis.

In the second half of the month, the remaining seedlings are planted, which were sown in the spring, the germinated tubers.

The lunar flower sowing calendar advises in June 2021 to adhere to favorable days for planting.
July

An ideal month for cutting phlox and roses. If the leaves of the bulbous ones turn yellow, you can start digging. Gardeners during this period divide the roots, cut and remove faded flowers. But these usual works also need to be coordinated with the lunar calendar.

August

With the end of summer, gardeners will not be able to relax. In August, it is time to plant perennial tubers in order to achieve flowering next year.

Important! It is recommended to plant flowers at the end of summer that do not require painstaking care.

These include carnations, mallow, delphinium, or chamomile.

September

Autumn draft has its advantages. Flowers have time to adapt to spring and bloom much earlier. Such plants are distinguished by good hardening and health.

The time comes for planting bulbs - daffodils, tulips, crocuses, hyacinths, snowdrops.

This is best done on certain days.

October

In the empty garden for flower growers, the planting of bulbous plants, which they did not manage to submerge in the ground earlier, continue, and the excavation of tuberous perennials continues.

The calendar recommends to appoint planting work with flowers on fertile days.

November

November is notable for its unstable weather. But this does not prevent gardeners from continuing to plant flowers. During this period, seeds of calendula, lavater, mignonette, asters, marigolds are sown. With such a sowing period, seedlings appear very early in the spring, even with damp and cold soil. Planting is carried out on days when the vibrations of the moon help the plants.

December

A good time for planting flowers in the winter garden and on the balcony. At the same time, a new season of sowing seeds for seedlings begins. Some summer residents use an interesting option for sowing seeds in the snow. This requires a layer of snow of at least 25 cm. The seeds are sown into the thickness of the snow, then covered with a layer of soil and again a layer of snow. This "layer cake" protects the seeds from the invasion of rodents and birds.

It is better to open the new season according to the recommendations of the lunar calendar.

You can accurately determine the sowing date of your favorite flower, even if it is not in the list of the article. For this, there is a general table of the sowing calendar of flowers for 2021.

The timing for indoor flowers does not differ, which can be found out by watching the video:
