Gardening by the moon
I read about this fellow RJ Harris, head gardener at Tressilian Estate
in Cornwall this week end. He apparently planted, fed, and harvested fruit and veg depending on the moon phase, and claimed this had a substantial effect on the success of the operation. Now, I know the lunar cycle has a substantial effect on nature (tides immediately spring to mind). But should it be taken into account when gardening ? I found his book he http://www.moongardening.cwc.net/BOOK%20cv.htm What do the experienced resident gardeners here think? Is there something in this, or is it just airy fairy bunkum? Do any of you practice gardening by the moon, and would you recommend it? Cat(h) |
