Day name table
Like all French Republican months, Fructidor lasted thirty days and was divided into three weeks called decades (décades ) which each lasted ten days. Within every decade, each day had the name of an agricultural plant, except the fifth - the Quintidi - which had the name of an animal , and the tenth - the Decadi - which had the name of an agricultural tool.
