Plant planting calendar
For centuries, people have gained experience of the healing and nutritional value of various plants that they have encountered on a daily basis. In recent times, chemical tests have determined at which stage of development a plant is richest in medicinal ingredients. It was found that these ingredients are not always equally distributed in all organs of the abyss. At the time of flowering, as a rule, the most useful ingredients are found in flowers and leaves. The most useful ingredients at the end of the natural cycle and the change of seasons are found in the underground organs, fruits and bark of the plant. The healing properties of the plant largely depend on the harvest period. Calendars for picking plants are compiled according to this. No such calendar is completely accurate because it depends on the climate, relief and diversity of the plant world. The time of flowering in folk words depends from year to year. That is why calendars for picking plants are often just rough orientations that help herbalists, plant collectors and phytotherapists.
