Many gardeners use the lunar calendar to determine the right time to sow cucumber seedlings.
They say that by choosing the right day, you can provide yourself with a solid harvest, which will be enough for salads and preserves.
Unfavorable days
According to the lunar calendar, cucumbers cannot be planted during the new moon. In February 2023, it falls on the 19th-21st.
Seeds planted on this day will produce weak and sickly seedlings that will not provide a rich harvest.
Favorable days
In the calendar, you need to highlight two dates in red in February - the 25th and 26th. These days of the last month of winter are the most favorable for sowing cucumbers for seedlings.
At least 3-4 weeks should pass from the moment of sowing for seedlings to planting in open ground. Seedlings are sent to a permanent place when frosts are over and warm weather sets in. Cucumbers are very demanding of the temperature regime.
