Grower2Grower services during COVID-19 lockdown
Growing must go on
Advisory Service:
With the COVID-19 alert system increasing to level 4 on Wednesday the 25th of March, I would like to reassure all growers that I am still available to visit properties if advice, of an essential nature, is required to maintain the wellbeing of crops. I am well equipped to cope with hygiene requirements.
Growers that use Grower2Grower crop registration services via e-mail will carry on as usual. If anyone would like to register for crop registration please let me know.
Alternatively, I am available by e-mail chat or phone either with normal voice calls or video calls including Facetime, WhatsApp or Wechat, please don’t hesitate to connect if you require anything.
E-Magazine:
I want to reassure all readers of Grower2Grower, including growers, suppliers, government and our international readers we will carry on providing as much current information pertaining to greenhouse horticulture.
I am inviting suppliers and growers (if they have time) to provide articles or updates on their business’s opening hours, any supply constraints or availability of any products & services at this time. I am more than happy to run more frequent editions/updates to provide greenhouse growers with up to date information as required.
Please keep safe everyone.
I appreciate your comments. Please feel free to comment on the grower2grower Facebook page:

Heating Uncertainty Leaves Greenhouse Growers Searching for Answers
Waste oil supply changes force growers to reconsider long-term heating options ahead of winter. Two weeks ago I was alerted that one of the major recycled waste oil suppliers, based in the Auckland region, will soon stop supplying greenhouse growers. For one of my customers this came as a significant shock, particularly given that notice was given that deliveries will cease in the coming months –

Protected Cropping, Weather Extremes And Growth Potential
Extreme weather again highlights the role of protected cropping. During last week’s deluge across the North Island, significant damage is expected across many outdoor crops. Onions lying on the ground and attempting to dry will be particularly vulnerable, with prolonged saturation likely to result in quality losses and storage issues.
