Gardening and Planting by the Moon by Nick Kollerstrom

You won't have to get up in the middle of the night to sow your carrots! Country folk - and repeat buyers of this book, which has been published annually for over thirty years - know that planning their work in harmony with the rhythms of the moon produces better crops. It's that easy. They get higher yields and better flavour in vegetables. Flowers produce stronger displays and heightened colour. This gardening guide computes everything you need to know about the daily influence of the moon and the planets. With its full 15-month daily calendar, it creates an essential timetable for the year ahead and is also a fine means of self-discipline for keen gardeners.
5 starsAmazon. Robbiejay. Fantastic Item, great quality. I buy one of these every year and my flowers and crops are the best I've had. 5 stars. Alison C. Amazon.I can't do without this at my allotment now. Many thanks to Nick for putting this together every year. 5 stars, Amazon. John Mercer. For 6 years I've followed these recommendations and they certainly seem to work. Apart from anything else, they instil a discipline into seed sowing and planting, thus avoiding the sudden urge to do everything at once as soon as the spring weather comes! 5 stars, Amazon. Catherine Apps. This method of gardening has worked very well. I have been gardening for over forty years and the best results have been from biodynamic methods. 5 stars, Amazon. Jayne Turner. Brilliant book. Really works. Never garden without it.
