It is on.....gardening wars.....

Well...
This morning, I am on a mission. After thinking that my husband was seeing the light on moon gardening....we got into a discussion last night. It all started because my tomato plants are HUGE and he said I needed to transplant them. Yes, I know I do, but the time is not right...for one, we are in the 4th quarter and a barren sign none the less, now is not a time to plant anything. I need to wait until at least a 1st quarter with a fruitful or semi-fruitful, and most optimal is a 2nd quarter and Scorpio.
He told me I was "off my rocker"...really? Really? Oh, it is so on...
I got into how and why I plant by the phase of the moon, the scientific studies that go along with the support of the theory, and after a 20 minute soap-box rant by me...he looked at me and said..."Your point?"
Grrrrrrr... So I decided to do this...I have enough plants, I am going to transplant some of my peppers, tomatoes and cucumbers today...in a barren 4th quarter phase...and then wait until the time is optimal....a 2nd quarter and fruitful sign. I am going to document everything, and take pictures so he can see the difference. Right now we have bets on what is going to happen. This is going to get interesting around here... (besides, who bets on the survival and success of plants in their garden...besides us that is?)
So, at this point in time, I have some of my plants outside, waiting patiently to be planted. I sure hope they don't die...I will be very upset, and mad at the hubster...but my point will be made. Come on moon almanac...don't fail me now!!!
Have a great and blessed day to you and yours. =)
Blessed be!
