Just to clarify “biodynamic sowing”, the term is misleading… Biodynamic farming and gardening developed only sine 1924, when Rudolf Steiner gave his first lectures.
Farmers and gardeners had been sowing and planting by the moon for millennia before that. Steiner suggested following and investigating those practices.
Then Maria Thun did her research and started publishing her calendars, combining b.d and working with aspects of moon phases and relationships.
So if one says “biodynamic sowing”, its about the Thun’s mainly.
But there is a much bigger field of gardening and farming by the moon which is separate to biodynamics.
