In 2020, according to popular beliefs and according to the weather in winter, difficult conditions are expected for planting and growing crops in the Moscow region. The sowing calendar for the year and tables compiled on its basis can become the main help for the gardener and the gardener.

To help farmers

The Moscow region is a fertile land for those who grow plants for their own needs and for the purpose of making a profit. Here, a relatively homogeneous relief, deep and wide river valleys, moderately cold winters and warm summers, the amount of stable precipitation - all this gives grounds to classify the Moscow region as an area in which the successful activity of flower growers, gardeners and gardeners is possible.

The agroclimatic reference book characterizes the Moscow region as a zone in which natural conditions and climate give good results when growing many cultivated (fruit-bearing, fresh eaten and harvested for the winter) and ornamental plants.

The sowing calendar for 2020, as in other years, involves the rest of the gardener and the gardener only in December, but this is very conditional, because the farmers have adapted to the climate with a relatively cold temperature and have developed a whole network of farms where vegetables and greens are grown in greenhouses conditions, and plants that are exotic for the Moscow region in greenhouses can bear fruit all year round.

In the understanding of amateurs, the sowing calendar and the lunar calendar are one and the same manual by which you can determine the approximate dates for planting plants for seedlings, transferring them to open ground, and carrying out winter plantings. Actually:

1. The sowing calendar is a conditional rate by which they are guided when planning the planting of seeds for seedlings. This is the time when more resistant plants can be squeezed into open soil.
2. It can change, but not drastically, for example, for 2020, according to the long-term weather calendar, warm March and April with frosts are predicted in many regions of Russia. Meteorologists do not exclude late frosts in May, so the long-term weather calendar compiled for the region is the second indispensable component necessary for a gardener and gardener.
3. The lunar sowing calendar makes it possible to choose favorable days for planting, to avoid those terms in which even the best seeds will not subsequently give the expected result. The phases of the moon are a reliable guide to identifying a plant species. Root crops are planted on the decreasing plant, and those plants that are cultivated because of the aboveground part are planted on the growing one. The full moon and new moon are definitely contraindicated for agricultural work.
4. Auspicious days for 2020 may not coincide with the working days of the gardener and gardener, and in this case, experienced growers use neutral days for planting plants, guided by the signs of the zodiac. They are fertile and medium-fertile when work in the garden or greenhouse is crowned with success. There are also those in which it is not recommended to plant any crops.

In the Moscow region, you can engage in universal planting - when several beds are planted at a summer cottage for their own use. There are gardeners and gardeners who cultivate 1-2 types of plants for profit.

They can use a separately compiled planting calendar for a grower, a planting calendar for a gardener or a similar publication for a gardener for 2020.

Lunar sowing calendar

The table of favorable and unfavorable days for 2020 according to the lunar calendar is not compiled for the Moscow region, but in general for residents of a particular hemisphere. People are guided by the phases of the companion not only when planting plants, but also when taking care of hair and nails, concluding business deals, and setting wedding days.

The gardener and gardener are usually not interested in all months of the year. Therefore, favorable and unfavorable days are usually indicated from February to September (these are the months in which the agrarians of the Moscow region work), but this table also indicates other months for those who work in greenhouses:

Month	Unfavorable days (full moon and new moon)	Good days for planting (waxing moon)	Good days for landing (waning moon)
February	8-9, 21-22	1-8, 24-29	10-22
March	7-8, 19-21, 24	1-8, 25-31	10-23
April	3-4, 15, 17, 20, 22	1-7, 24-30	9-22
May	1, 13, 14, 18-19, 29	1-6, 24-31	8-21
June	9-11, 14, 16, 24-25	1-4, 22-30	6-20
July	7-8, 11, 13, 21-22	1-4, 21-31	6-19
August	3-4, 8, 9, 17-18	1-2, 20-31	4-18
September	1, 4-5, 26-28	1, 18-30	3-16
October	1, 17-30	1, 17-30	3-15
November	16-29	16-29	1-14
December	15-29	15-29	1-13

When compiling a sowing calendar for 2020, one should not forget about the signs of the zodiac. Often it is the presence of the moon in a certain phase that can negatively or positively affect the quality of work, germination of seeds in open ground or in greenhouse conditions.

You can also navigate not by the sowing calendar, but simply by finding the earth's satellite in a certain phase under the influence of the zodiacal constellation. For those who have not previously been fond of astrology, and are forced to do this because of work at their summer cottage, it is recommended to remember such simple information about the signs of the zodiac:

Fertile	Medium fertile	Unproductive	Infertile
Taurus	Virgo	Sagittarius	Twins
Cancer	scales	Aries	a lion
Scorpion	Capricorn		Aquarius
Fishes

Experienced plant breeders and astrologers recommend combining several conditions to determine the timing of planting individual plants.

Of course, it can be difficult for gardeners and gardeners to determine the date of planting, however, if the planting calendar for 2020 strongly advises planting a crop in an unproductive or unproductive sphere of influence, it is better to do this on the very last day, when it weakens, giving way to a more acceptable constellation.

Sowing calendar

Drawing up a sowing calendar for the Moscow region in 2020 presents some difficulties, because it indicates only approximate and standard dates, focused on normal weather.

The problem is that in 2020 there is no usual norm of precipitation in winter, and snow is a third of the annual norm, the rest of the water enters the soil with rains.

Forecasters predict an unusually mild spring for Siberia, the Urals and Altai, a standard one for the southern regions, but in the Moscow region, according to long-term forecasts, April and March will swap places, which means that the usual dates for crops grown in the Moscow region may shift.

	January	February	March	April	May	June	July	August
Cucumbers		13-15	13-14	12-13, 16-18	13-15, 23	10-11
Tomatoes	17-19	13-15	13-14	12-13
legumes (except lentils and chickpeas)			13-14	12-13, 16-18	13-15, 23
Pumpkin, squash, melons and gourds			13-14	12-13, 16-18	13-15, 23	10-11
Solanaceae - Peppers and Eggplant	17-19	13-15	13-14
Onion	24-26	20-22	20-21	16-18	13-15, 23
Lettuce, dill (for constant overseeding)	24-26	20-22	20-21	16-18	13-15, 23	10-11, 19-20	17-18	13-14
Cabbage (broccoli and cauliflower)			15-17	16-18, 23	12, 21, 22	17-18
Beet			6-7	2, 3, 30	1, 27, 28
Carrot			6-7	2, 3, 30	1, 27, 28	5, 6

For those who have been growing plants for a short time and do not know how to navigate the surrounding nature and folk signs, it is better to look at the calendars compiled by experts for each month, or individual recommendations for planting crops - tomatoes, carrots, potatoes and others that are necessary and familiar to the food mentality …

Summarize

The sowing calendar is a significant help in determining the timing of planting seeds for seedlings and in open ground, however, you need to focus on other sources:

1. Long-term weather forecast for a specific region.
2. Lunar calendar and phases of the earth satellite.
3. Features of culture, variety, ripening terms.
4. Finding the Moon in the signs of the zodiac.
