What it means for sowing and planting

A supermoon is a full moon close to perigee. The calendar counts the perigee: for twelve hours before and twelve hours after, the time is unfavourable for sowing and planting. If perigee falls a few hours before or after the full moon, the window moves with it. The times for this day are shown above.
