You might be better off growing as if you were in Tassie, the climates
may be similar (at least during autumn/winter)?


Given his location, I agree. A planting calendar that includes a cold
climate guide would be the worht finding and following especially if the
move to the Bargo Tahmoor area has been from more northern climes.

It's -6° here quite
regularly and the days max out around 12°... but can still grow plenty
of veggies, once you adapt to the conditions. Frost is both a friend
and foe here, depending on what you're growing.
