So what is the science behind Moon phase and plant growth? Just as the Moon pulls the tides in the oceans, it also pulls the subtle bodies of water, causing moisture to rise in the earth, which encourages plant growth. When the water rises, plants take up nutrients faster, making it an ideal time to plant. Moon Gardening for iPhone gives you a systematic perspective of the effects of moon on plants. The app provides specific Moon gardening advice based on the current Moon phase and Zodiac sign for each day. This might include time to cultivate, harvest or just pull weeds, or even the type of plants to plant on a given week.
