Many experienced gardeners try to work with plants on their site and in the house with an eye on moon calendar. As practice shows, indeed, cultures transplanted, planted, grafted or cut off at a favorable time look healthier and more attractive than the rest, grow faster and gain strength, in every possible way pleasing their owners. Therefore, even for those who are quite skeptical about the influence of the moon on the wildlife of our planet, it will not be out of place to find out the lunar transplant calendar indoor plants for December 2017.
Home plants are transplanted quite often. If the roots become cramped in the pot or the leaves turn yellow and fall off the flower, you need to think about the possibility of an early transplant. Why is it necessary to correlate this time with the phase of the moon?
Scientists have long come to the conclusion that our closest satellite has a direct impact on the state of all life on the planet. This also applies to plants. It is believed that during the waning moon, the bulk of the plant's juices go to the root system. If the Moon, on the contrary, is growing, then it is more supplied with juices above-ground part flower.
In order for the plants to endure transplant manipulations most favorably, without injury, it is better to perform such work when the Moon is at its growth stage. The most optimal period in this case will be the presence of a satellite in the sign of Virgo. A good option for a transplant would be the period of the growing moon, which is in the sign of Taurus or Capricorn. All these signs belong to the signs of the earth element, which allows the root system to feel great and quickly cope with the stress of transplanting.
At the same time, the new moon and the period when the Moon is in the sign of Aquarius will become a completely unfavorable time for transplantation work. Of course, readers of "Popular about Health" are better off postponing the transplant until later with the waning moon.
Better days for transplanting indoor plants in December 2017
Of course, winter planting is not the best. best idea. In the cold season, indoor crops endure such manipulations quite hard, which is explained by unfavorable conditions. temperature conditions(and in the apartment, often, low humidity environment) and deficiency of sunlight. But sometimes you can't do without them.
It's believed that the best period for transplanting indoor crops at the end of 2017, it may be the first and second of December, because at this time the Moon is growing and is in the sign of Taurus.
Already from the third of December, a completely unfavorable stage for such work begins, since the Full Moon sets in, which is soon replaced by the waning Moon.
The moon rises again from the nineteenth of December. Both this day and the next (December 20) she is in the sign of Capricorn, which allows flower growers to start transplanting indoor crops. In principle, the moon continues to grow until the end of the month (until December 31). But it is better to engage in transfer work only on the twenty-eighth and twenty-ninth of December, when the satellite is in the sign of Taurus.
So, in December 2017, it is worth transplanting flowers on the 1-2, 19-20 and 28-29 numbers.
If necessary, you can transplant indoor crops at any time of the year. However, experienced flower growers still recommend waiting for spring and after the onset of this time of year, adhere to the optimal days according to the lunar calendar. In any case, a houseplant after a transplant needs to organize complete comfort. It must be protected from drafts, provide it with sufficient lighting and comfortable environmental humidity.
It is a mistake to assume that indoor plants require less care than their ground counterparts. In fact, it turns out that keeping beautiful flowers in pots is as laborious as any work in the garden or in flower beds. To help lovers and professionals of indoor plant growing, experienced astrologers have compiled a lunar calendar for indoor grower, which contains useful and up-to-date information on when is the best time to transplant, water and prune indoor plants.
How does the moon affect indoor plants?
It is well known that all plants on Earth, including indoor plants, obey the solar calendar. In autumn and winter, the movement of juices in the stems slows down, and plant care is minimal, while with the onset of spring, additional chores come. And yet, not only the calendar of seasons familiar to us affects flowers in pots. It is also necessary to take into account the lunar calendar of the florist 2017 for indoor plants, which indicates suitable days for watering, transplanting and propagating indoor flowers.
Scientists through experiments and observations have proven that the Moon is responsible for the regular change in the water level in the oceans, seas and rivers. The same effect is exerted on all liquids on Earth, including those found in plants. Therefore, in the first quarter of the moon, home and team plants are planted, propagated and transplanted - at this time, growth will be stimulated by the accelerated movement of juices along the stem. But to improve the root system, nourish and fertilize flowers, it is better to wait last quarter when the movement of the liquid begins to decline and all the strength of the plant is concentrated underground.
How to properly care for indoor plants according to the lunar calendar?
First of all, you need to consider the features various kinds plants and their purpose. For example, for a bedroom, it is better to choose deciduous, non-flowering houseplants, as pollen and an intoxicating aroma can disturb sleep and cause allergies. But orchids or hippestrum will be very appropriate in the living room, as well as other flowering plants. It is also important to provide the flowers with enough light. If you have dark apartment or in the corner where the flower garden is located, not enough sunlight penetrates, and you do not want to put lamps, choose those plants that prefer shade or are not too sensitive to lack of lighting.
Lunar calendar for indoor plants for 2017: care and transplant
Caring for indoor plants is tied not only to the lunar phases, but also to the position of the moon relative to the signs of the zodiac.
As the florist's calendar for 2017 tells, indoor plants can be planted and transplanted to the growing Moon in Virgo - it is believed that this is the most favorable time: the plants will take well, will not get sick for a long time and will soon take root. Also to auspicious days for transplant work include periods when the Moon is in Taurus and Capricorn. It is good to plant indoor flowers on the days of Scorpio, Libra, Pisces and Gemini. But the Moon in Cancer will favor the growth of plants only in the last quarter.
- If you need to transplant tubers and bulbous plants, use the days of the growing moon in Capricorn and the waning moon in Scorpio.
- It is better to transplant curly flowers on the waning Moon so as not to harm the stem, and do this when the Moon is in Virgo and Sagittarius, if you need to urgently transplant, and the Moon is in the first quarter, wait until it is in Gemini.
- In order for the rooting of the cuttings to be successful, do the work on the days of the Moon in Scorpio and Capricorn (the phase of the Moon does not matter). And in the growing Moon, the time of passage through the constellations of Libra, Aries, Cancer and Taurus will be favorable, in the waning - Pisces.
- Traditionally, houseplant seeds are sown on the waxing moon in Virgo, as this is the perfect time for germination and ensures that your plants are strong and robust. But you can also do crops in the waning moon, only on the days of Cancer and Scorpio.
- If you're planning on trimming houseplants or pinching out to form a crown later, wait for the waning Moon in Gemini or Aquarius.
Since the reproduction of indoor plants most often occurs by tearing off a shoot or leaf, it is best to do this on the waning moon, so that by the time of planting the leaf has time to take root. To do this, it must be placed in water and wait a few days. The New Moon period is perfect for this. But remember that not all plants reproduce in this way, if “kids” appear on your plant and you plan to transplant them into new separate pots, follow the general transplant rule. The same applies if your plants are propagated by dividing the bush, just carefully separate the parts of the plant and place in new pots.
Lunar calendar for watering indoor plants
In the lunar calendar 2017, a flower grower for Belarus is distinguished special days for watering indoor plants. Traditionally, watering should be carried out on the days of Water - Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio - with a 7-9 day break. And since in summer the plants need more moisture, you can additionally irrigate them in the days of the Earth - Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn. But during this period, it is important to follow the basic rules for watering home plants in pots: do not pour more than necessary, drain excess water from the pan, as stagnant water will lead to rotting of the roots.
On the days of Air - Aquarius, Gemini and Libra - it is strictly forbidden to water the plants, as they do not absorb moisture and nutrients well. And you need to be extremely careful when watering on the days of Fire - Leo, Aries, Sagittarius - it is better to do this after sunset so that the plant does not get burned.
for watering suitable flow water, but first you need to let it stand for a day or two. This is important as the chlorine added to water purifiers can seriously damage the plant and cause a range of diseases and damage. When watering flowers from above, pour water at the edge of the pot so as not to expose the roots, if you pour into a pan, as violets require, for example, try to check the water level after half an hour - too much moisture can harm. And if the plant has a funnel of leaves (leaf plant), drop some water there too.
It is also important to spray indoor plants. This is especially true for those whose homeland is located in the tropics, where the humidity of the air is much higher than in our latitudes. This should be done about once a week, but it is better to focus on the dryness of the air in the room. If you are not sure, you can install a special measuring device or substitute a pallet with wet expanded clay for especially capricious plants. Just watch the flower carefully, you may overdo it and only harm it.
If you have been away for a long time and left your indoor flowers without watering, resuming the watering schedule according to the lunar calendar, that is, on the days of Water and Earth, will help restore their healthy appearance, but do not try to flood the plants, let everything be on schedule.

Lunar calendar of indoor plants: how to properly fertilize
All indoor plants need to be fertilized, as they are constantly in the cramped space of their pot and cannot receive nutrients from the soil for a long time. She becomes poorer over time. Therefore, top dressing with a variety of fertilizers, first of all, enriches the soil, which helps to prolong flowering and increase the immunity of flowers to various pests and diseases.
When choosing fertilizers, please note that not all of them are universal and can only be intended for one type of indoor plants, while others will be poisonous. Since in most fertilizers the main components are phosphorus, nitrogen and potassium, which are necessary for flowering plants, strengthening the root system and immunity, you can choose those fertilizers that contain additional minerals and trace elements in their composition.
It should also be borne in mind that such fertilizers are usually very concentrated and must be diluted with water. Instructions and proportions are usually on the packaging itself. And since it's all about water, and fertilizer time is best combined with watering and focus on those days when the waning moon is in Pisces, Cancer or Scorpio. Fertilizers are contraindicated in winter, as well as in late autumn. This is best done in spring and autumn, before and after the flowering period. And if the plant after the transplant did not take root well or is sick for a long time, pour in an additional dose of fertilizer on the days of Taurus and Capricorn.
