Planting by the phases of the moon???

Hi folks
Not been around for a bit due to surgery, but i have been watching Open Gardens on BBC2 where a guy says he has had exceptional results on his allotment by planting crops dependant of the phases of the moon. Apparently you should plant leafy veg when the moon is waking and root drops when it is waining.
Anyone else had experience doing this or know anything about it? Is it true?

No to both but i was also watching and wondering.  Nice allotments weren't they

Interesting that the chap who was planting by the phases of the moon was beaten in the competition by the lady who wasn't

Thought the other garden still had a lot of work  to do But the organisers always seem to visit  at the worst time of year and then complain that there's not a lot of colour :blink:
