Right, northern Thailand here, which means 18° North. A bit cool at this time of the year actually, but warm enough to grow corn here "without being holier than thou or anyone".
Unfortunately the guy with the connection in the South Americas who was supposed to provide the heirloom corn
seeds did screw up and didn't send any seeds. I had to listen to some fictional excuse story with issues involved that I couldn't contest without loosing my temper.
Grandpa was right when he told me that this world is no good
But yes, I have started a week after my last post with local seeds of a small sized variety instead.
