How big would the cucumber be during harvest?
Any support from government?

Which government? My govt, local government, state government or federal government?

Is the govt that cannot subsidy farm inputs?

Harvest

On the average, Hybrid cucumbers mature at 45 days from planting.

Harvest is at 4-5 days interval depending on the size of the farm, target market, the plants and one's availability.

Pests and diseases

To prevent and control diseases and pests, I use insecticide a d Fungicide.

I spray insecticide at 4-5 days interval starting from after planting/before the plants sprout till harvest.

Fungicide is sprayed in that manner too but I usually start spraying it when the crop is more than 10 days whether infection or not.

Prevention they say is better than cure.
I really appreciate your effort, kindly continue to work towards greater goal.
This is what I want to be seeing from NL not abusing the Man that said we should look inward.
I will be posting my Processing Plant soon, once its completed not depending on Dollar like some ignorance on this Forum that does not know the meaning of opportunity.
Kudos to you guy.
