Before planting strawberries for seedlings, gardeners try to check the lunar calendar. In it, you can easily find suitable days in 2021 for sowing strawberry seeds for seedlings.

Influence of moon phases on the growth and development of strawberries

The moon is an unusual luminary, passing through several phases, on which the entire process of plant development largely depends. Experienced gardeners and gardeners are well aware of this and try to build on the data of the lunar calendar in their actions. For example, when determining the sowing period of seeds.

To enjoy the good germination of seeds and avoid unexpected losses of seedlings, you need to use the lunar calendar to correctly choose the most favorable planting days for each type of plant.

If you plan to plant strawberries in 2021 for seedlings, the lunar calendar will tell you when to do this. First, you need to keep in mind that the most active phase of the moon is considered to be a new moon, which lasts no more than three days.

During this period, it is useful:

1. Treat strawberries with insecticides, as well as weed the beds.
2. Carefully examine the leaves, if necessary, remove the rotten and affected by diseases and pests.
3. Make planned top dressing, loosen the soil in the beds.

On the days of the new moon, according to the lunar calendar, planting seedlings and grafting work is undesirable. The waxing moon phase is very favorable, especially for plants located above the soil surface. This practically does not affect their root system.

On the growing moon, it is ideal to plant seedlings and sow seeds in the ground, since the root system of plants planted at this time develops and grows well.

The waning moon has an effect on the root system of seedlings, but sowing seeds during this period is undesirable. If the roots of seedlings or seedlings are damaged, no lunar calendar can help, and it is advisable to avoid planting.

If the recommended periods are observed, high-quality and strong seedlings can be grown.

When to sow strawberries for seedlings in 2021

Experienced gardeners and gardeners know well how difficult it is to grow strawberries from seeds, since at the very beginning of their development they are extremely picky and capricious. To obtain high-quality seedlings, you need to spend a lot of time if you cannot get seedlings.

In 2021, the optimal time for sowing strawberry seeds for seedlings is early February. To get a good harvest, it is worth using the planting information in the lunar calendar and by region.

Taking into account the lunar calendar

If you plan to grow strawberries in greenhouses, it doesn't really matter when you sow the seeds, as this can be done all year round. To plant strawberries in open ground, sowing seeds must be done in late February - early March or late May - early June.

Sowing seeds early is a guarantee of a harvest by autumn. Seedlings grown in the summer will be planted in the beds in the fall, respectively, the harvest will be in the next season.

If the seedlings have grown weak and there is a fear that they will not have time to root in the garden before the onset of frost, it is better to keep them in pots until spring.

On packages with seeds, the manufacturer must indicate the dates of planting. For the seeds of varietal strawberries, there is a rather long time interval - from January to March, and the dates for planting early, middle or late strawberries are completely different.

The most favorable time for sowing strawberry seeds is usually February-March. In the lunar calendar for 2021, suitable and unsuitable days for planting all crops, including strawberries, are marked for the convenience of gardeners and gardeners. See the table below for more information on when to do this.

Month	The numbers
February	21-24
March	13-15
April	16, 17
May	15-21
August	4-8, 11-15
September	12-15

Taking into account the region of residence

Climatic features in the region of residence should not be discounted, since the time of sowing seeds also depends on this important factor. The optimal month for this is February, but it is necessary to take into account the differences in climatic conditions.

Each region has its own timing for planting seeds and seedlings. In the central regions of Russia, winter temperatures are not the lowest, so it is better to sow seeds from January to February. These terms are suitable for Moscow and Moscow region, Oryol, Vladimir, Smolensk and Tver regions.

The climate of the southern regions of Russia is milder, it is much warmer, and there are no extreme frosts in winter, so they deserve closer attention in identifying favorable and unlucky days. In southern Russia, strawberry seeds are sown in March - April.

Such recommendations are suitable for residents of the Rostov Region, Krasnodar and Stavropol Territories, as well as the North Caucasian republics.

In regions with rather cold climates and short summers, such as the Urals and Siberia, the time for sowing strawberries is from March to April.

Winter sowing of strawberries

The vast majority of gardeners prefer sowing strawberry seeds in spring or summer. But there are people who are very interested in whether it is possible to do this before winter and, if possible, in what period is better.

It is easy to find favorable days in the lunar calendar for 2021. This option has many advantages, since seedlings are expected at the very beginning of spring, during the spring-summer period the bushes will get stronger and can calmly withstand winter frosts.

Seeds for sowing before winter must be prepared approximately three months before planting in the ground. For this, the largest and ripe berries are suitable, which must be dried and the seeds separated.

The time of sowing strawberry seeds before winter also depends on the region and its climatic conditions. It is only desirable that the work be carried out on the growing moon.

If in 2021 it is planned to sow seeds in unprotected soil, it is not difficult to find favorable periods for this in the lunar calendar - days from 1 to 3 and from 24 to 31 July. August is suitable for planting seedlings under film. The first of August and the days from 23rd to 31st of the month are called favorable by the lunar calendar.

In 2021, experienced gardeners recommend purchasing high-quality seedlings of the first reproduction for planting strawberries, if possible. There is also an opinion that high yields can be provided by frigo - a strawberry bush that was dug up early in the fall, was stored all winter and survived it perfectly. It is also worth considering the landing dates according to the lunar calendar.
