Re: seasons not 24/7?

The first is true only in that gardeners are superstitious too. Gardening lore is a fascinating mixture of practical advice, mnemonics and nonsense

The second point is a religious one. I am not denying that calendars were used for fixing religious events. On the contrary, I see that as their prime purpose. In the agricultural year they had secondary purposes of fixing feast days, market days and later - rent days.
