Lunar Gardening

Introduction
Man has long used the sun to guide agricultural activities. The sun has a profound effect on plants. The position of the sun relative to the earth determines the season of the year which in turn determines which plants will flower and which will bear fruit.

How it Works
Although the mass of the moon is much smaller than that of the sun, yet the moon is so close to the earth which causes its gravitational force to have a noticeable effect on the water content of the earth. The effect of the moon’s gravitational force clearly shows in its influence on oceans and sees in the form of ebbs and tides. The great amount of water in oceans and sees makes this phenomenon clearly noticeable to humans. Yet the moon also has the same gravitational force on water containing entities on the earth of smaller magnitude. Since the soil and plants both contain water, yet on a much smaller scale, the moon’s gravitational force pulls on the water content in both the soil and plants yet on a much smaller scale that can be barely noticeable by us. However, we can notice the effect of the moon’s gravitational force by observing plants and their growth patterns along the different phases of the moon.


Waning Moon
27th of the lunar month: New leaves start to show up.


During the time of the vanishing moon, the amount of water being pulled by the moon’s gravitational force is minimal. This leads water to sink deep into the soil and not at its surface. Roots tend to extend during such a period in search for water deep into the soil. At the same time, new leaves start forming to increase the length of the stem as a result of the increase in root length.


Waxing Moon
15th of the lunar month: Seeds start to germinate.


During the full moon, the gravitational force of the moon is at its apex. This leads water to be pulled to the top of the soil. Therefore, this is the best time for seeds to germinate, since they get the most amount of moisture.

Beyond the Phases
Besides observing the moon phases, every 9 days the moon passes by a different sky constellation.
