The lunar sowing calendar for July 2016 has been compiled for middle zone Russia and Belarus. Have a good harvest!

July has arrived - the hottest month of the year. Gardeners dedicate their main efforts to protecting their crops from the scorching, drying sun. Midsummer is also the time for harvests and weeds to flourish. And these matters also need to be dealt with.

Our Lunar sowing calendar for gardeners recommends paying attention to your health and not exposing yourself to scorching sun. It is better to carry out gardening activities early in the morning or in the evening, after 17:00. Having familiarized yourself with the Lunar Calendar Table for July 2016 presented below, you can easily and quickly navigate what work to carry out in a timely manner.

Lunar sowing calendar for July 2016

Days of the lunar calendar favorable for gardening activities:

  • The 1st day of July, as well as the 27th and 28th of the month under the waning moon in the earth sign, which means that you can harvest fruits, vegetables and root crops for further safe storage and processing. You can also plant and replant root crops and perennials.
  • From 5 to 7 – days of the waxing moon. You can engage in all types of gardening and gardening activities.
  • July 8 – 12 - in general favorable time in order to spend it at the dacha, but there are certain nuances, which are described in more detail in the Table of the Lunar Sowing Calendar.
  • 13-14 is a good time for watering and fertilizing, but you should not harvest the crop for further storage.
  • July 15-17 – lunar days pass under the influence of fire - the most successful period for planting and transplanting fruit plants, harvesting for storage and processing.

Unfavorable calendar days in July:

  • July 2, 3 are barren lunar days: not only are they under the influence of air, but also before the New Moon.
  • 4 – New Moon. All the energy is hidden deep in the plants, and the owner of the garden often doesn’t get around to anything on such days. It’s better to just spend these days with your family and enjoy each other’s company than to uselessly wave a hoe.
  • On July 18-19, the waxing moon is in an earth sign - gardening activities are unfavorable. But harvesting for long-term storage will be very useful.
  • 20 – Full Moon. It’s a barren day, but this is the best time to fertilize plants with organic or even mineral fertilizers, although they will have to be planted “dry” without spilling water.
  • From the 21st to the 26th and from the 29th to the 31st of the month is an unfavorable period for sowing.

July is the peak of summer.

In July, during the period of active growth, shoots of the main fruit crops - apple trees, pears, plums, etc. - are pinched (pinched). This ensures inhibition of shoot growth, and the process of their lignification begins. As a rule, they pinch competing shoots and those branches that the gardener wants to quickly transform from growth into fruit. Watch the trees carefully, and if there are a lot of fruits growing on apple, pear and plum trees, then you need to put supports under the branches, otherwise they may break under the load of the harvest.
In July, the berry fields are harvested: raspberries, strawberries, currants, blackberries, gooseberries and other crops.
In addition, it is necessary to constantly water and fertilize the plants. We must not forget about the fight against pests and diseases. For tomatoes at the end of July, the biggest danger is late blight; for prevention, it is advisable to treat them with a 1% solution of Bordeaux mixture - it will not spoil tomatoes that are starting to ripen, since its salts cannot pass through the protective shell of the fruit... But if you are afraid that children can pick a tomato and eat it unwashed, it is better to treat it with an aqueous solution of iodine (slightly yellow), perhaps it will not protect against fungal diseases so well (one way or another, iodine is a general-spectrum antiseptic), but there will be no toxic residues on ripening tomatoes salts (for these reasons, until the idea of ​​treating with iodine came, I did not treat ripening tomatoes with anything at all).
July is the time of intense yield for cucumbers. The calendar specifically mentions periods from the most auspicious days for pickling cucumbers.

Boarding days for July 2016

Perfect option

Removed from the garden early potatoes, you can sow greens or radishes in its place: the conditions will be ideal. But you can also sow the plot with green manure.

Since potatoes consume a lot of nitrogen and phosphorus, it is recommended to sow legumes to compensate for losses: peas, lupine, vetch, sweet clover, and alfalfa. And if you sow a mixture of peas, rye and white mustard, the effect will be triple: the peas will enrich the soil with nitrogen, the rye will suppress weeds, spoil the life of the potato nematode and enrich the soil with potassium, and the mustard will repel wireworms.

Iodine for cabbage

As soon as the cabbage heads begin to form, it is useful to feed the plants with an iodine solution (40 drops per bucket of water). The resulting mixture is watered over cabbage at the rate of one liter per plant.

Let's feed fruit and berry plants

There is now a special need for useful micro- and macroelements fruit and berry crops: raspberries, rose hips, viburnum, which form the harvest, begin to actively grow shoots, roots, leaves, and lay buds for the next year.

Raspberries will be grateful for nitrophoska - two spoons per 10 liters of water, consumption - about 7 liters per square meter landing It is also possible to use the ideal - three tablespoons per bucket of water, consumption - as above.

Viburnum can be pampered with a set of fertilizers: 10 g of ammonium nitrate, 15 g of double or 30 g of simple superphosphate, 15 g of potassium salt per square meter of planting. All this can be added in the form of a solution.

Rosehip will not refuse a solution of slurry (1:5 or 1:6) or bird droppings(1:10-12). They should be poured into circular grooves 8-10 cm deep, dug around the bush at a distance of 70 cm from it.

Fertilize wisely

Many gardeners scatter mineral fertilizers along the bed and cover them with a rake. There is little benefit from this: vegetable crops to the detriment of the roots, many small roots are formed, forces are wasted, and the growth of ground organs lags behind.

But also liquid fertilizers it must be used wisely - after watering or simultaneously with it, distributing it along specially prepared grooves and trying not to get it on the leaves so as not to burn them. If this happens, the fertilizer solution must be immediately washed off the leaves. clean water from a watering can.

Dry and warm up

If onion grew on wet or heavily manured soils, after harvesting from the garden it must be dried and then heated for at least 6 hours at a temperature of 43 degrees. Then the bulbs will be well stored not only at the beginning, but also in the second half of winter.

Removing the garlic

First, at least a couple of weeks before harvesting the garlic, we remove the soil from its heads and let them warm up thoroughly in the sun. Then we dig up the garlic and, without cutting the stems, tie it into small bunches. We hang the bunches under a canopy in a draft for about two weeks to dry.

And in place of garlic we are preparing to plant garden strawberries. The soil here is healthier and slightly protected from pests.
