Perhaps if you had time,you could plant at both of the moons phases.
I believe you would be amazed at the difference.

I'm sure the "Farmers Almanac", will strongly recommend planting things such as radishes,carrots,beets,potatoes,onions,and garlic during the"dark" side of the moon.

for offending them. I was hoping to show how it felt to have one's country continually attacks. Apparently it was a bad idea as it offended many of my UK friends as well. So to them I say I'm truly sorry and to all I offer my apologies. I'm off to go soak my head now.
