Allergy in Finland

[mr.Parkas]

Hello, everyone!

I would be reallly grateful, if someone could help me!
the reason is that i hope to work in Finland this summer, in region of Suonenjoki. But for my whole life I suffer from allergy and don't now when they bloom in Finland, so i can't plan my trip properly
Maybe somebody know when bloom season of catstail(also timothy-grass), Poa, Festuca, Orchard grass(Cock's-foot),Wheat grass(Elytrigia), Ryegrass, Rye and Foxtail grass is over?
They are Tähkiot, Nurmikat, Nadat, Koiraheinä, Vehnä(not sure if it the right traslation for wheat grass),Raiheinät and Heinäkaura, Ruis and Puntarpäät in finnish.
I know most of the people even don't know how do they look like, but is someone has the same problem as I do, hope they wiil reply:)

Thank you!

I have hay fever and when I moved to Finland from the UK I didn't suffer at all although going back to the UK in summertime immediately found me suffering as badly as before.
But as the years went by living in Finland then I suffered more in Finland (not sure which plants cause it) although when going back to the UK I did not suffer at all, regardless of when I went there.

So it might be that the difference in plants and lack of pollution mean you do not suffer when you come for just a short time. The amount of pollution affects how sensitive you are (more pollution and you are more sensitive to the pollen).

The allergy season for "heinät" is June to August, with end of June and the whole of July being worst. Here's a chart (in Finnish only, sorry): http://www.allergia.fi/ajankohtaista/siitepolykausi/
