What kind of soil does cucumber grow well on and where can I get the seeds?

Fertile and loamy soil that can retain water not waterlogged

Dont say "NO" emphatically because you dont really KNOW!

How can you say spraying the crop that one would eat, with insecticide and fungicide DIRECTLY, does not it?

Are you not aware that some of these x-cide are capable of penetrating the soft tissues of the crop and reside insde th eflesh till consumption by humans?

While l feel your hustle, l think we need to be careful with the use of all these Chemicals on what people will consume.
It may kill the pests but it may also end up "slowly" killing the consumer or at the minimum, induce some disease (Cancer) in them at a later stage in life.

I will suggest you make use of Govt bodies like FIIRO (Oshodi), IITA (Ibadan) and ask questions about which type of Pesticide/Fungicide is safe to use and in what quantity and manner. I am sure they will be more than willing to assist.

Wish you more success in your efforts.

Thank you.

The later part of r post has settled it all. The manner, quantity and type must be considered and I do that.

Typical Nigeria. All you do is to depend on others to produce for you to eat or embezzle, what stops you from learning how they (cabbage, tomatoes, lettuce and other veggies) are planted and help reduce the dependency on others.

You would have saved yourself from sounding ignorant if you had gone through my threads history!

These are people making it in this so called recession economy. They are boss of their own and they are making it, soon enough they will be there, some are in even there. Some lazy folks cant work while some working all because they want to suit up to some stupid office that pays them token.
