October is a golden autumn, a leaf cutter and a wedding man.

In October, frosts come and gradually increase. Berry bushes should be cut, trees and shrubs in early October, if you did not have time to do this earlier, it is worth feeding with phosphorus-potassium fertilizers. Many pests can remain on trees and bushes since the summer, so they need to be collected and destroyed.

Opinion about autumn pruning Trees: In autumn, it is advisable to limit yourself to sanitary pruning. Formative pruning fruit trees it is better to postpone until spring, especially for large branches:
- firstly, the cut of a large branch will not have time to drag on, and winters in Lately accompanied by frequent thaws, and even water can get under the garden pitch, which will inevitably lead to the appearance of rot;
- secondly, despite the frequent winter thaws, every five to seven years very severe frosts occur and it may happen that the branch scheduled for pruning turns out to be more tenacious than the one scheduled for growth ...

Depending on the sign in which the Moon was at the time of sowing, the plants are endowed with certain qualities. They can be productive with poor quality seeds or poor with high quality seeds, tall or short, brittle or strong. Therefore, sowing, planting and transplanting plants should be carried out when the Moon is in favorable signs for cultivating the land and watering: Taurus, Cancer, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces, taking into account the phase of the Moon for different plants. At the same time, cuttings, vaccinations, and mustache rooting are carried out.

The day of sowing the seed is considered the time when it touched the ground, or the time when we lowered it into the water for soaking. That is, as soon as moisture began to flow through the seed coat to the embryo, we can talk about the beginning of awakening. On this day, the plant's program for the harvest is laid, which cannot be changed during transplantation. Transplanting can only correct the condition of the plant. So, for example, if you sowed in Cancer, then picking in Virgo or Capricorn can make the root system and stem of plants less fragile.

There is one thing in agroastrology important rule: if the sign of the Zodiac is suitable for sowing, but the phase of the moon is not suitable, then you need to focus on the sign, and work should be carried out on the last day of the Moon's stay in this favorable sign. For example, good sign for sowing carrots Taurus, and the phase of the moon is growing, we are not satisfied. Then we sow in Taurus, but on the last day the Moon is in this sign. The phase of the moon on this day will have almost no effect on the growth and harvest of carrots in the future.
