Actually the information on location for most of us is found to the left of the post. In this discussion the only member whose location cannot be found is amantedelenguaje (Language Lover).
As far as soil type, I have added to my signature. My place is built up on a hillside with a very poor, iron rich, red clay subsoil which we refer to as hardpan in the States. We remove the soil in 1/2 cubic meter (for bananas) or cubic meter (for fruit trees) holes and replace it with richer black loam soil in order to give our bananas and fruit trees a decent start in life.
It rains nearly daily from mid-April to early November and vey little precipitation the rest of the year. Temperature rarely gets above 26C (80F) or below 18C (65F) throughout the year.
We have the option of displaying a weather gadget on our posts so you can tell the current climate conditions. My location is usually two degrees C lower than that displayed.
