First Quarter Lunar Planting Guide

The First Quarter lunar phase for June 2009 runs from 31 May – 8 Jun. The full moon on June 8 is known traditionally as the “Flower Moon”.

The First Quarter is the time for planting above-ground annual fruiting crops, green manures and flowering annuals in the traditional [lunar planting calendar](http://green-change.com/2008/12/11/what-is-lunar-planting/).
