I'm hoping to plant between the 26th and the 28th of this month. Still waiting on my soil test to see what final amendments I will need this season. Where in NZ are you growing mitlem? curtlave is right - have spent most of last month and this month preparing soil. Very wet start to spring this year and have not had many days fine enough to work the soil.

Met up with maybe 10 growers at Hamilton Gardens last year and I gave seeds to a company that has about 100 compete in their own social club contest.
