For those who plant by the signs, March is a MISERABLE planting month...’Ember Days’ on the 9th, 11th and 12th (during which you are not supposed to plant or sow seed of ANY kind), followed immediately by the killing sign of Leo thru the 15th (during which the same protocol applies). Many continue to sow seed during these astrological kill zones...it would be interesting to see if long-term veggie performance is actually affected, or whether this is just a ‘wives tale’...
“...or whether this is just a ‘wives tale’”
So many old weather sayings and, ‘Old Wives Tales’ are based on observing naturally occurring events, so I never discount them! :)
Besides, when we’re RIGHT about something, it annoys our ‘Old Husbands,’ LOL!
Wind from the East - Fish bite least.
Wind from the South - Blows the hook from their mouth.
Wind from the North - No Fisherman ventures forth.
Wind for the West - Fish bite best!
^ That one works, for sure! ^
