How do you control weed! Can I use herbicides to save weeding labour?
I haven't started because Tokyo F1 you advised me to get is not yet available. I'm seriously planning for the raining season right now.

Don't try herbicides at all.


I use traditional methods in controlling weeds. You can also try mulching

Please can someone tell me where to buy cucumber seed Tokyo f1 in ibadan thanks in anticipation for your favorable respond

jephito:
Two cans of Tokyo F1 was not enough, so I took like 20g from the third can to complete the farm.


Apart from this 1½ plots, I am doing another one plot elsewhere but will not give it trellis. The remaining 30g left could not finish it and I didn't budget for another can. So I opted for another variety to complete the planting.

I bought 2 sachets @1k3/sachet

Please where do you get the Tokyo f1 seed and the seminise

Did you plant close to the stream. I mean the 400 sacks

It was an interesting experience from clearing of one acre of land ,to bush burning, filling the sacks half way,heaping,planting,wetting and other farm practices. Though tiring, but considering the gain at the end,it worth every inconvinencies

Yes so close to the stream

And I planted 4 in a sack,cos one might not germinate and another may be sickly,so two will pick up.
And 4 seeds on a heap too. Two each in a hole on each sides

Hello fellow cucumber farmers, I am so happy today on getting to the farm.
Guess what? My cucumber has germinated!!!
Just day 4!
So joyous
