Hi all,

I harvested 23 bags from my 2K sacks (1st harvest). I can categorically say that cucumber sack farming is a very very very lucrative business. I urge you all to try it. I'll be moving unto a more lucrative crop and scale down on my cukes but they'll always be a regular in my year-round growing season.
u harvested 23 bags from 200 sacks or 2k? Clarify please. U are moving to q lucrative crop? What is it,?

Vanpeele, please in place of organic fertilizer, like the poultry droppings and cow dung, can one use inorganic? like NPK? Does it have any effect on the crop? Thanks!

You'll never know if you don't try. I can't give you all the answers. Show us how serious you're. You're a farmer not a journalist.

Lol..we gas mention am.

Some already are achieving it. Like a NLander currently in Lagos who started with 1500 sacks he made twice his investment. Now he has 3500 and will scale to 8000. He's chilling right now.

The change begins with us not having to wait on the inconsistency of the government and creating our own empowerment. I will in a later day get the guy's contact from you so l can refer someone to visit his farm.

ok no p

Government? We're the government. Those elected officials are our servants on a 4 year renewable contract. Empowerment starts with us employers not our employees.

Food for thought.

It was a very serious pest to the cucumbers grown some months ago over here. The damage they caused was massive because their population was high and they appeared only after fruiting.

Seems PH has a good market for leafy vegetables considering the statistics of middlemen transporting from Uyo down there.

I don't know where to get fertile soil.

Depends on your pocket. You can use farm soil or you can buy. Your decision.
