Does anybody here garden by biodynamics or the phases of the moon, I'm
thinking of giving it a try.


It's along the same lines - I can assure you that potatoes should only
be planted on Good Friday ;-)

and that the sun always passes in front of the sun at 3 pm on Good Friday.
I was
taught this at junior school.

and that a cloud always passes in front of the sun ...

It was never true while I was at the junior school. Often it rained the whole

So it was true, just a question of interpretation
