March is a "hot season" for the gardener and the gardener, as the sowing season begins on the suburban area. The lunar planting calendar for 2021 will help to correctly plan the work, taking into account favorable days, in order to get an excellent harvest soon.

Influence of the phases of the moon

The sun and moon have a huge impact on the growth and development of plants. Thanks to many years of observations, scientists have repeatedly found confirmation that plants consume less moisture on a new moon. Therefore, during this period, you should not be zealous with watering.

The gravity of the two planets of the solar system has a depressing effect on the root system, so it is better to wait a little with some work (weeding, loosening, transplanting, pruning and harvesting).

Active absorption of water by plants and the formation of new shoots occurs on the growing moon. This means that the time is perfect for sowing seeds and fertilizing. If necessary, moderate watering and surface loosening of the soil is allowed.

Weeding weeds, breeding perennials, taking preventive measures - all this should not be done on the waning moon, since the reverse processes occur during this period. For such work, the full moon is suitable, when all the energy is collected in the stems, flowers and fruits.

Garden work

At the end of the first spring month, they put things in order at the site, carry out sanitary pruning of trees (the timing depends on weather conditions). To prevent stagnation of melt water, appropriate grooves are prepared. Urea, diluted with water, is sprayed on trees and all the soil under them from pests.

If lichens are found on trees and shrubs, measures are taken to destroy them. Prepare a 7-10% solution of ferrous sulfate (1 tsp per 100 ml of water) and spray them.

This must be done before the start of sap flow, otherwise there is a high risk of damage to the bark and kidneys, which will subsequently lead to the death of the plant.

It is also necessary to prepare the beds: remove snow from them, spill them with hot water and sprinkle them with ash. On the site intended for carrots, the last step must be skipped due to the fact that the ash lacks nitrogen, which is necessary for the complex feeding of this vegetable.

And also check the onion for damage, lay out rodent bait in the house in order to get rid of uninvited guests at the time of the opening of the summer season. In March, as in February, you should take care of adding feed to the bird feeders and tidying up the greenhouse for planting radishes and greens.

Sowing seeds

The lunar planting calendar for March 2021 will help novice gardeners and gardeners. It indicates favorable days for sowing seedlings. If for some reason you did not have time to sow the seeds of peppers, eggplants and tall tomatoes for seedlings in February, it's time to do this in the first days of the first spring month.

By increasing the soil temperature to 28-32 degrees, it will be possible to accelerate the emergence of seedlings. Having created such conditions, after ten days you can wait for the appearance of peppers, after a week - eggplant shoots, and after 5 days - tomatoes. If the soil temperature is slightly lower, seedlings will appear a couple of days later.

Too low temperature (+20 ° С) and too high (+40 ° С) have a detrimental effect on the plant. In the first case, the seeds will either sprout much later than the due date, or they will not sprout at all. In the second case, with a high degree of probability, they will die.

Answering the question when and what else to plant in March 2021, it is worth noting that the month is suitable for sowing onions with seeds. Due to the early period, the growing season is stretched, and there is every chance of getting the largest heads possible.

In the middle of the month, you can start sowing cauliflower, white cabbage (including late varieties) and broccoli. To enjoy the aromatic basil in late spring, sow its seeds in mid-March.

In the presence of a warm greenhouse, cucumbers are planted in the middle of spring. And after the first shoots appear, it's time to apply top dressing, and in June it will be possible to harvest the first crop.

Flower crops

The first month of spring is perfect for sowing small-seeded flowers. These include:

1. Petunia - it develops very slowly, therefore planting in March will allow you to admire the beautiful flowering already in late April - early May.
2. Verbena is a very beautiful perennial plant that is planted at the same time as petunia.
3. Erect marigolds - experienced gardeners know firsthand that this is a plant with a long growing season. Therefore, it is worth taking care of planting seedlings in advance, then with a greater degree of probability in May it will please with abundant flowering.
4. Annual dahlias - compact varieties of flowers look gorgeous both in flowerpots and in the background of flower beds.
5. Snapdragon - who would have thought that strong plants grow from small seeds, pleasing the eye with abundant flowering. Since they need quite a long time to grow, March is the most suitable time for disembarkation.

Even a novice gardener has every chance to grow a good harvest to the delight of himself and his family, subject to the simple rules and tips of the lunar calendar.
