Growing with the Moon in December

Hi Mg...
Wanted to nominate this for GoYpedia, but not sure where is most appropriate... any suggestions please ? Thanks.

Well the planting info is only valid for this December, so should it go to Goypedia?

Maybe not, but it is useful if GoYpedia covers as many aspects as possible of gardening and horticulture...

what about the grow your own section MG ? thats for addvice on growing your own veg etc and when to do it, just a thought :o)

oh,htis new stuf for me, but i hav intrest so ask:

apart from gravty and light, what ohter efect do moon hav mg?

ohter puzzel me - if stars in constelations do not effect other stras in same constelation via gravity,how can htat effect us over thousandsof time grater distance?

also, if constelations hav only exist for last few 100thousands of yrs, anwill only do so for hte next few thousand, like as in our pole star not be so in futur, hten any efect you clame can only be a pass phase of minute efect, befor our sun go supernova, your efects wil only havinfuence for less htan 1% of erths histry. so, if evrythin elvove happy,hwta difrence it make?

please no ofend my ???- i just try understand

Sanbaz yes the grow your own section would work.

Derekf may I direct you to the blog site I write which is ll about growing with the moon rather than repeating the info here... http://intunewithmoon.findhornpress.com/ You can also download a sample of the 2010 calendar by going to http://www.findhornpress.com/free-sample-ebooks-35/in-tune-with-the-moon-2010-free-ebook-sample-317.html

glad to help :o)

Good idea Sandra....I'll nominate for that category :o)

:o)) didnt do it because you said you were going to Terra.

mg-i reed your blog site wiht intrest,but it no hav evidunce of hwat you sayin. for eg. hte ascend moon hav sap rise,but you no say why - same for desend,so i no undestan why you say waht youdo/ you talk bout breethin,yet no say magnetic felds
evrythin in natur hapen for reeson, yet no reeson do you say. maybe your blog site is for hte masses- hav you got link to sunthin mor technacal? it is reely intestin subjct- i lik to no more pleese

Hi Derekf, Michel Gros has been running trials and test for 30 years whilst Maria Thun has been doing so for over 50 years. Their studies all indicate that as the moon waxes the sap rises and as it wane the sap drops back down into the roots of the plant. Obviously there is always sap in the whole plant otherwise it could not survive.

Take a look at http://continuousharvest.com/Documents/Bio-Dynamic%20Agriculture%20book.pdf if you want a long, and serious, look at the science behind the practice.

ok yes i understan all htis alreedy, but can you tell me HOW lunar efect hapen? also, your coment not reely true, as thins can make the wanin moon prduce mor surge growth htan a wax m,oon- but sure you nkow htis? This is what i try to understan you sayins - so far you keep direct me away- hwat you say the evidence is? When we conduct feld trialson new strane of wheet, sayin it just grow beter is a bit litewate,so we hav to show evidence, for eg, we wuld investagate solar storms durin hte period etc. hte moon deos not radite light, only reflect, so solar actvity shuld be parmont in your reserch, yet so far, you no mentin it at all. atmospheer polution, ozone, el nino, tropcal cyclone, light polution, magnetic felds, lay line, compres density gravity and orbital efect, gravitation warp, etc etc.all can be cited to suport your idea but no do you say. 50yrs of result meen nothin unles you can say WHY - sayin "it just dose" leeve me reely want ot no more.

your link i go to - serch lunar, and first coment say:
last 50-70 yrs, 107 lunar rythms in organisms, but hten say growth is influenced chiefly from soil life/ - so, hwat on erth is a lunar rhtym? And, if grow is more influenc by microorgan in the soil, hwy look at lunar anyway?

i also baffal by your choosin of link, in htat of all 266 pages, the word "lunar" only apeer on ONE page -so why direct me theer?

i wsa hopin to lern fro this, but ansers seeem to be elusiv

Hi Derekf. I am not trying to give you the run around - I directed you to the pdf of a book which explains the scientific side of things. I could also send you the complete In Tune with the Moon book as a pdf file via YouSendIt if you send me a pm with your e-mail address. There are as you say lots of different factors and they are explained in both books - I do not feel competent to paraphrase and talking directly with Michel and with the biodynamic association am happy that what is written in the book is correct.

In fact I don't even need your e-mail address, I can send the file to myself, copy and paste the url for collecting from YouSendIt and send to you as a pm. Will do so now...

Derek that whole book is on biodynamic growing and the science behind that is why I sent you there.

yes, i get your pm MG - thankin you so much- i wil hav to look sumtim later as late now.
i just get bak fro walk- hte moon good and get me thinkin- htese 50-70yrs in pdf, an "Michel Gros has been running trials and test for 30 years whilst Maria Thun has been doing so for over 50 years", seem al rathre piontless, as hte info is useles in hte futur cos hte moon is no a static object, so theer result no based pon a fixe pointof refrence, am hte moon contnue to mov further away day byday.
maybe i miss sumthinm heer so far, so my hopin your new pdf link will help. hte last,alas,was litewate and more softback junior school wiht litle suported evidence, an yet your thinkin is htat it scientific/ big mystry htat
dos htismeen htat you not no hte science behind it yourself? oh i not no- pleese no beoffend-i was hopin for some exsiting new insite into devlop wheet an barleyyelds - ohw ell- thanin you for trinin

Derekf I doubt I can answer your questions in a way you will find scientific, I'm not worried or offended by this just recognise we are coming from different places and spaces.

Well its got me interested, MG! I'll have a look at the links you've pt up when I've got time to absorb the info! Thanks!

You're welcome!
