Hi,
I live on the East Coast of the North Island in New Zealand.
I am lucky as our climate is fairly even. By this I mean our Winters do not produce heavy frost or snow and our Summers only heat up to around 32C 90F during our hot months of January and February. Unlike the top of NZ and the West Coast we are not subject to the strong winds off the Tasman Sea but the more mild air flow from the South Pacific Ocean. The average Wind Speed would be around 50km/h 32mph on a very windy day.
I have spent the last few months reading through this forum firstly as a quest and of late as a member. The information this forum carries is invaluable and has helped me enormously since I planted seeds back in late September 2017. As fellow kiwis have already stated, cigarettes/tobacco is heavily taxed in our fair country hence my decision to attempt to grow my own but on a very small scale compared to many of you
So as a newbie to this very ‘time consuming’ new hobby of mine I have made many errors but tis all a learning curve and no doubt I will do better come next Spring
I will type up a 2017-2018 Blog given time but for now I just wish to say thank you to all who contribute to this forum. Especially the year Blogs members keep. These I have poured through and gained the most knowledge from. I am only left with one unanswered question but will post under the appropriate topic. I am sure the answer will be on the board somewhere so a little direction is all I will need
Cheers
Jenny
