Planting took place as scheduled with few interruptions and all plants got away well. Mostly warm to hot conditions throughout the growing period with high humidity at times. Storms/rain mid-late November set back isolated areas due to water logging. Some soil health issues affecting isolated areas. A percentage of Blossom End Rot has appeared in many blocks in all areas which has been attributed to the hot, windy conditions on Boxing Day.
