If we happen to speak to a colleague "grass farmer" of sowing and reaping in our kitchen garden, exchanging experiences and advice , usually during the conversation something strange happens. We would sometimes ask, "But you, the parsley, the seeds in the waning moon?".
Yet this sentence I just could not pronounce it, indeed, we almost ashamed to have thought. Suddenly we cultivate our garden (until a moment before, with dedication and love for the sound traditions and the wise doctrines of the "old") so archaic, mimicking a primitive style, now completely obsolete, and because of our failure or of a culture gone bad or attacked by pests.
Gentlemen, we do not fall into this trap sticky letting the frustration would affect our "green thumb"!

If today we do not hear more talk of a waning moon and crescent moon does not because it is no longer fashionable. The reason is simply that the procurement of vegetables for the kitchen table and the family moved from the orchard (which almost all families had) to industrial production.
To meet the market demand, the vegetables are today, for example, produced rapidly in a forced, even in heated greenhouses, where each cycle is shortened and the collection time is earlier than normal vegetation. Obvious that the moon phases in this process no longer makes sense.
only an example, consider the breeding of chrysanthemums: the technique to obtain the desired time is fiorituta to, among other things, to cultivate in greenhouses that are blacked out even during the day to believe the chrysanthemum that have passed most of those days have passed in real life ....
But the moon is there, and his influence is undeniable. Do not forget the tide if he can "move" a sea ..... To you take due consideration.
Returning to our kitchen garden, and especially biological science has confirmed the old rules handed down from ancient times. Cultivate vegetable gardens, orchards, fields and gardens in harmony with the cycles of our bright satellite is a guarantee of better results, more healthy and natural.
