moon+and+weather

Remember when we did a project on lunar phases and planting??? Students measured the growth of swiss chard, lettuce, sage, and pac choi and found that the plants grew better when they were planted in the NEW MOON Why? Because there is stronger gravity during the full moon, so plants are pulled back towards Earth (and don't get so tall) But during the NEW MOON there is less gravity and plants can grow taller.
