l have gathered some skills in cultivating strawberries, capsicum (bell pepper in 3 colour variety of yellow, green and red) and butternut squash. l choose these 3 because of their high return on investment, hope to get the farm running by next year. 1 Like |

Gave them water, pineapple left over and water melon.my bro, though i didnt get your question on d local of legumes, i suggest u rephrase d question sir. Let me put a little input, legumes are a class of vegetables. Examples are soybeans, peanuts, beans, surprising locust bean tree is also a legume, leucaena spp(a shrub/tree is a legume). For your snails, watch out for predators e.g. Termites especially |

A BLESS NEW MONTH TO YOU ALL. Though i will still continue with my writeup on ugwu & other vegetables,but let me quickly chip in some vital info on poultry.In case you intend to make sales for christmas, it is important to note that if u missed last month to begin to raise your cockerel( except u intend to sale only broilers),you better start immediately,DOC is N160 each. so you dont complain that u didnt have sales because of spiritual attack(laugh). cockerel takes time to attain a presentable market wt

samshoz: You just answered with the examples you gave. Yes, termites and preditors are my worry.my bro, a single sting/bite from a termite is enough to kill a snail, hence keep them away from your snailery, for your tires, try to cover it with wire gauze & or net to guard against predators from getting it, or raise them from a ground that is free from infestation of ants, centipedes e.t.c. |
