Planting by the moon

This Friday night cst 23:54:29-10.01.2011 7:54:29 the 1st quarter of the Moon will be in Pisces. This is the best time to plant peppers this month. Afterwards it moves into some baren signs. Then semi-fruitful 13.01.2011 7:54:29-15.01.2011 6:54:29 would be the second best time.

If I am reading your timestamp correctly for the10th- that is Monday night. Tomorrow, Friday is the 7th.
 
I'm reading it as from 23:54:29 on 01/07/11 through 7:54:29 on 01/10/11 as the best time to plant peppers. That right?
 
Do you know the best time in February? I can't start yet.

sorry, am new here
and am confused ( and a little :crazy:)

when you plant you mean to start to germinate?
or simply sow into (starting/planting mix) soil at the specific lunar (stellar?)
period

or plan to germinate first, then place in mix at specific moonphase?

i ain't the sharpest tool in the shed....
 
plant means to start the germination process. For example this month on the 13th I have an appointment at the hospital where I will be out all day, so I will plant all of the seeds into a dry mix and at 9am my wife will water them for me. Once the seed makes contact with moisture the germination starts.
Biodymanics is an extention of organics. It is pretty heavy and involved stuff but the planting days have always been pretty good for me.

The dates dont fully coincide with the farmers almanac but it is just "each to his own" i suppose. Some dates line up but others dont.
 
It appears that the times and dates that I posted in my last post are out by 1 hr because I forgot about daylight saving. (we dont have it here in the west) These times are all Australian Eastern Standard time not adjusted for daylight saving. So Perth is now 3 hours behind in these charts not 2. Best just to go on the net and compute the time differences that way. I have posted the whole page for all to read. Hopefully its clear enough.

Biodymanic Sowing Chart December to May 2011

This is according to the biodymanic charts.
Chillies/peppers are fruit
So taking into account daylight saving in NSW Australia, Missouri time would be Wednesday 12th January 11pm to Thursday 13th January 6am.

hmmm, I need the best planting times for sarting peppers indoors in February in Missouri. I'm not ready yet!
I'm in Osage Beach. My day and times for Feb. are (4.02.2011 4:57:01)-(6.02.2011 15:57:01) and (13.02.2011 23:57:01)-(16.02.2011 2:57:01).
 
For Los Angeles:
(4.02.2011 3:20:58)-(6.02.2011 15:20:58) and then (13.02.2011 23:20:58)-(16.02.2011 1:20:58)

Thank you! I should be ready by then. It's great to know there are others here with an interest in this stuff. I've got a long way to go, but I'm steadily converting over.
