anyone planting by the moon phase?

ANyone using moon phases for your garden grow this year, if so whats your plans? I see may 25th is waxing moon all the way up to full moon on June 5th. Have any experiences using moon phases please share them. I harvested some of mine last fall by moon phase but now I cant remember what it was I followed.

I used to plant when the moon was waxing in a earth sign, water when the moon was in a water sign, prune when the moon was in an air sign, and harvest when the moon was in a fire sign. I don't do that anymore. I pretty sure it's all bullshit.

Not much difference you think? I may try it cause it will fit in with my time frame.

Not sure about the moon phases, but there's plenty that want to harvest by 4/20!

I harvested my purple chem last 420. On a scale of 1-10, I'd give it a nine last year. I still have an eighth I'm saving till 4/20/20. I'm wondering how much flavor and potency is lost in one year. I'll do the same in 2021 and 2022. Sample is in a tiny jar in the dark.

The theory is plants grow better roots before the full moon and better leaves after. Farmers plant carrots onions potatoes before, corn lettuce after.

in 9 days the moon will be waxing the 22nd. Be a good day to plant, way too wet this weekend.

harvest before during or after full moon

Fullmoon for maximum lunachromes

I did not get an almanac this year but my calendar says the 9th thru the 16th are good days.
