Wildlifer69, That question has been on my mind too. that moon info can be found on OG's Q&A Drug Forum Site. In the past, I always planted seeds by the new moon, so I always follow the moon cycles. My grows have never been the same consistency when I planted on the Ebb moon cycle when it's waning. I will look for the site.....Desi

Hey brother, when you find it in that mass of information, please post it. I swear it's in there, somewhere, because I have another site saved on another hard drive from a few years back..........I'm doing yard work...lol

The best time to plant flowers and vegetables that bear crops above ground is during the light of the Moon; that is, from the day the Moon is new to the day it is full. Flowering bulbs and vegetables that bear crops below ground should be planted during the dark of the Moon; that is, from the day after it is full to the day before it is new again. The Moon Favorable column below gives these days, which are based on the Moon's phases for 2008 and the safe periods for planting in areas that receive frost. See Moon phases for the exact days of the new and full Moons.

I've found quite often at my Latitude (between 35N & 44N)that plants usually mature around the harvest moon or the week after when the maple leaves turn colors (2nd-3rd week of October) .
