I've heard of lunar planting but this is a new one on me - planning according to the signs of the zodiac.

Hi Alan,
What a load of absolute B-----ks! I reckon these geeks try to out-do each other to find out how wacky they can be.
Rudolph Steiner is begining to look good well almost.
BTW what has happened to that thread? I simply cannot find it and put in a search for Rudolph Steiner and got no results!

Hmm
I just plant when the weather/season is right and have done so for 30 years. As I have had no notable disasters , I must have been lucky.
But then I'm a Libran.
What a load of carp.

What is 'amusing' is that nowhere is it mentioned that it should all be done according to the Sidereal Zodiac, which is anywhere between 23 and maybe 30 degrees out of phase with the Tropical Zodiac which is used in the West, depending upon which 'authority' you use. Much, if not all of this is, actually, a direct follow-on from Steiner.

I think that is very true Colin, kinda being tuned in to the elements, plants, and the whole garden.
