    The general meaning is 'put in the ground'. Most believe that you should plant anything around the full moon; some say not on the full moon, but either three days after, or three days before. Others say you should plant three days beofore or on the full moon, but not after. All seem to agree that during the canicula, from July 15 to August 15, you shouldn't plant anything because if you do, it won't grow well. (This is usually the heart of the rainy season.) Some say that there is actually only one day during that time when it is really bad to plant, but since you can't know which day that is, they don't plant for the whole period. Others say it is an unknown period of 15 days within that time frame, but for the same reason, because you can't know, you shouldn't plant for the whole month. Similarly, you should not cut leaves for your house during this time because they will rot quickly.
