The second phase is located between the 1st quarter and the Full Moon. This period is marked by the emergence of vigorous activity of all living things, the greenery is filled with the powerful energy of the Earth, it takes juices from the soil and directs it up the stems, contributing to the future rapid development of leaves and abundant flowering.

- landing;
- transplantation of both decorative and practical crops - fruit, vegetable.

The influence of the zodiac sign
Gemini is a sign of Air. Its main qualities are dryness and low yield. Therefore, this period is not suitable for sowing seeds or planting seedlings. Growing up, such plants develop the root system as much as possible, but to the detriment of all other parts. As a result, they have a very weak stem that needs support. In the future, the taste of the crop also suffers, and the aroma, if there is, is very weak.
Because of all of the above, it is highly undesirable to plant or transplant plants in this lunar phase. Carefully caring for weakened specimens will take a lot of effort, but will not live up to expectations. When the Moon is in Gemini, watering should be avoided. Despite this, a number of gardening works during this period can and should be performed.
