Having the extreme of either too much or too little water in our gardens can be hazardous to growing plants. While the exact amount is ideal, today’s unpredictable climatic conditions means that rain isn’t guaranteed and that the right amount of water will arrive to sustain your plants and lawns. Therefore we have to prepare ourselves with every scenario if we want to maintain a healthy looking garden.
A helpful guideline is to garden in harmony with the moon. This way we can follow weather patterns to water our plants when the moon is in a water sign, as this is the time of maximum absorption. To help, one can buy astrological moon gardening calendars each year to check on seasonal moon days for potential water outcomes. Plus, with seasonal spring changes from winter into summer is an excellent time to address water storage or run-off issues.
