Answer by Great Scot
Well according to my father-in-law (who’s in SoCal) you should always plant your tomatoes on the full moon near Easter (above ground plants on the full moon, below ground plants (carrots, etc.) on the new (or dark) moon.)
I’m certainly not an expert, but his plants always grow beautifully. You might want to invest in a copy of this year’s Farmer’s Almanac, it tells you all kinds of interesting stuff like this (I’m not sure, but I think Poor Richard’s Almanac is good too.) Good luck!
P.S. – Best stuff for worms and other things is a product called “Seveia” or it might be “Severnia”…ask at your local garden shop, but it’s not a spray, it’s a powder. Works.
