If you are fond of gardening - a table of sowing and planting different types of crops, compiled for a summer resident and a gardener on the dates recommended by the lunar sowing calendar for 2024, will help you get high yields.
Lunar calendar
At the heart of all calendars used by gardeners and gardeners is the classic lunar calendar, in which the phases of the moon and the main periods are clearly distinguished:
- new moon;
- growing moon;

If you want to create a sowing calendar for 2024 yourself, based on the phases of the moon in a particular month, we suggest downloading a table of lunar cycles for all 12 months.

Zodiac Signs
You can also use the garden lunar calendar, focusing on the signs of the Zodiac indicated for each day.
The best signs
To get a good harvest, and the plant was strong and resistant to various diseases, it is recommended to sow and plant those days when the Moon is in the most highly productive signs:
- Cancer;
- Scorpio;
- Taurus;
- Pisces.
Neutral signs
If the gardener for some reason cannot plant on the best days, then it is safe to work in the garden when the Moon is in neutral signs:
- Libra;
- Capricorn.
Unproductive signs
A plant planted during the dominance of these signs will not grow actively enough, which as a result may negatively affect the harvest. The low-productive signs of the lunar calendar include:
- Gemini;
- Virgo;
- Sagittarius.
Unproductive signs
The periods in which the Moon is in the signs of Aries or Leo are undesirable for sowing seedlings or planting young plants in open ground, as the growth process will be slowed down, and productivity at the fruiting stage will be several times lower than when planting in period of productive signs.
Unproductive signs
The least productive zodiac sign is Aquarius. Sowing or planting on such days is highly undesirable. The root system will not be able to form strong enough, so the plants will be extremely weak and vulnerable to all sorts of diseases.
In 2024 it is not recommended to work with plants on these days:
