So, sowed [all onions]:
Long Red Florence
Banana Shallot
Kyoto Market
Rouge Pale de Niort
Once these are up, will sow the next batch. Most onions are going in pots this year due to white rot, so the long ones will be planted out with a round one in the middle. We shall see how long I manage to keep that up!

Biodynamic is definitely the way for me as I think I'm starting to understand the system. You have about 2 days to sow a root. or a leaf, or flower, or the other thing, then the cycle moves to something else, but it turns full circle in about a week, so, if you miss out one week, you can try again the following week. Also, with 2 days for each, that's one day to think about it and find the seeds and the next to do it. Its making me be more proactive with my seedsowing - quite a novelty.

That's it VC and I loved Biodynamic for it's simplicity. Synodic is proving restrictive for me at the moment with all this seed sowing talk...I must not listen...la la la lahLook deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better...Albert Einstein

29th/30th December Flower Aquarius

Synodic:
Sow leafy vegetables and annuals that produce above ground, eg. Lettuce, Spinach, Asparagus, Broccoli, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Sprouts.
Biodynamic:
Moon in Aquarius: This is an Air sign. This is a good time to sow Flowering plants, eg. Broccoli, Cauli.
Sidereal:
Moon in Aquarius: Dry and barren. Good time for garden maintenance.Last edited by VirginVegGrower; 28-12-2011, 11:54 PM.Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better...Albert Einstein

Because I am trialling both. Last year was biodynamic, this year synodic. I want to test what works and what doesn't; also what works better...simples.Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better...Albert Einstein
