If gardeners named the full moon, I think they would be something like this:
January: “Seed Catalog Moon”
February: “Internet Plant Shopping Moon”
March: “First Trips to Garden Center Moon”
April: “Plant Lust Moon”
May: “Dirty Fingernails Moon”
June: “Still Have Plants Waiting to go in Garden Moon”
July: “Crabgrass Explosion Moon”
August: “Ripe Homegrown Tomatoes! Moon”
September: “Houseplants Back Indoors Moon“
October: “Frost Kill Sadness/Relief Moon”
November: “Pleased Not to be Weeding Moon”
December: “Long Nights Moon”
Myth 64 – Frost is more likely when there is a full moon.
Still think she is wrong though, I think hard damaging frosts are linked to either Full or NEW moons.
This year the night that did the most damage on my plot was April 26th oh and guess what it was a New Moon. Trouble is you cant see a new moon thats why they are missed.
