How much did you use in Total for the 1500 plants for the drip irrigation

23k for drip and connectors
I will still buy 5pcs of 1 inch pvc
I already long hose for overhead tank
I don't have money for filter

Roughly 32k for irrigation

Okay

You can perforate a Filter na

Use this Mosquito net

Nezzjnr:

But do you think some nations will accept such idea

.
Yes. As climate wahala bite harder, they will even persuade/force other nations to accept. The reason why I like it so much is because of its potential application in war situations.

Olaleyeabdullah:
boss...are you still planting f2 seeds?

seed is not scarce and price was good in my last cultivation, believe me! if you are in my shoe the last thing on your mind will be processing seed when you can afford to buy 100k seed without issue. Anytime I want to process seed I will post the details on my channel.

On this note.. I'm saying Bye bye to Jorad.

Going back to Greengo abeg.

You hardly see cases of Curved fruits with Greengo.

Am sad, and angry like mad! This is as a result of fake cocopeat I bought from Let's farm agro shop in akure. I confirm it from 3 colleagues, they too has similar issue as a result of cocopeat they bought from thesame place. I got really pissed yesterday when I realized the man himself knew the cocopeat is not good, he was telling me "he bought it, so he must sell it too"

Sorry for the setback bro, for the Let's farm man he should have said something better or simply apologize rather than saying he bought so he must sell it, that's very annoying

Very bad. He doesn't care about the loss of investments by transferring his liability to you and other farmers. Buying bad cocopeat should be his loss because no one asked him to buy fake. He also didn't consider the loss of patronage from several potential and existing customers as a result of his actions and unguarded statements.

It's too bad.

Good day great farmers, so I have seen first hand how a cucumber farm was ravaged by Downey mildew in a matter of two weeks. Damn I fear o I said I will try as much as possible to not allow my farm to get attacked by downy mildew. So I was unavailable from my farm for a period of a week and a half I had a bike accident , needed my wound to heal before I get back to farm when I got to the farm I started scouting my worst fears I saw Downey on some plants, I started my pruning got another different active ingredient of fungicide to add to the two different fungicide I had. It was 4 weeks then , but now is 6weeks old , plant still looking healthy some are fruiting. Saw some signs of d.m on some leaves though, but my question is this do fungicide actually eliminate the pathogen completely or they just suppress the rate of spread. Farmer akinloye other great farmers ur contribution r welcomed thanks.

sorry about your accident hope you are good now? No way! I can't leave cucumber farm for two days talkless A week . To my knowledge and experience, fungicide can only suppress rate of Downy mildew spread it can't cure it.

I'll go back to my rugged Greengo cultivar abeg

Updated price of cucumber

Farmerakinloye6:
Sold finished at 7.5k...i don't want to stand on 8k because of last market experience. I don't even spend up to 3 minutes.. everything was bought ASAP.

don't try to plant cucumber again (commercial purpose) without perfect irrigation in place. It doesn't good to add another fungicide to Cabrio, and always make sure you spray in the evening!

maybe it due to nutrients or water not enough!... left to me jorad is a good cultivar, but is not green enough for my market.i prefer it to Tokyo and Murano.

uche whats the thickness of your drip tape and where did you buy from

I bought it from amadrip/amagrows here they weighbilled it to my state

Actually sir I installed drip irrigation what I am saying is that the rain has reduced for a week plus nw like twice in 10 days now, so the downy mildew spread is not severe compared to the one I experienced in another farm where the rain was falling every 2 days. Ok concerning the cabrio i will note that sir, thanks very much.
