Waning Moon

The waning moon (time between full moon and new moon when the moon is getting smaller) is a great time to focus on preparing and renewing your soil. Make compost, mulch, use natural fertilisers such as worm juice or weed teas.

It is also a good time to transplant seedlings as plants are putting more of their energy into growing their roots at this time.

Root crops such as carrots, beetroot, turnip, parsnip, raddish, garlic and potatoes are best planted during the waning moon also.

    Hi there
    We’re based in Australia so I’m sorry to say we don’t know much about the American recycling system.
    Maybe try googling ‘Columbus Recycling’ or calling the local government representative. Good luck with that, it’s amazing that in 2009 it’s still difficult to access such facilities.
    grow well
