Weldone brother.! Please the you use,is it mixed with saw dust or the one directly from layers pen! Currently, I am in a location. Where I have access to excess manure . Especially the ones directly from layers pen(not mixed with sawdust but wet). I also have another location closer where they raise the layers on the floor and the manure is mixed with saw dust.but wondering which would be better.
one with no sawdust,but make sure it is cure( dry) before you use it.

to see direct manager role in this kind of commodity I grow is not easy. Most times, we always promote faithful and handwork labourer (add to his money) to that post, yet he will still be working too. 1 time meal in a day, #6000 allowance every month, accomodation and #156,0000 at the end of the year. If you think you can do It let me know ASAP.

sure there will be market for it when your cucumber is out, lots of us are not planting at the moment (holiday/resting). Try greengo. you may experience bitter cucumber due to hot weather though.
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by mamaaustin(f): 9:37am On Dec 17, 2021
Although I am not the one that posted the question, i would like more insight into this answer.

So what are the ways to overcome bitter tasting cucumbers during the hot weather? Is it through irrigation or use of shade nets (I have heard that shade nets helps to reduce the intensity of the heat effect on the crops).

I think ones it gets enough water it will not be bitter, I planted this time last year although with hose to water and I used a seed that was removed so I don't know the name, I lost the farm due to intense heat as wetting 3plot with hose is a very tedious task


Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Ufeolorun(m): 5:59pm On Dec 17, 2021
[quote author=hadex90 post=108577828][/quote] irrigation irrigation and more irrigation but if you are using a saved seed then I don't know.

like how many minutes or hour in a day? True with enough water you can almost! But you will still see some cukes that will be bitter. Also, yields cannot be compare to ones we plant April-may.

good day chairman, do you think it's possible to make a profit of 3 million naira annually from cultivating about 5000 stands of cucumber year round using irrigation.

Maybe it's associated with the cultivar, if you have proper crop management practices and it's still bitter, then I would suspect these dark cucumber cultivars or maybe your area is hotter than some zones.
cuz I barely have issues with bitter cucumbers, except like when I had challenges with irrigation for extended periods early this year (story for another day sadly).
I would rather use shade nets for coloured capsicums than for cucumbers, both are profitable though, but if properly managed(not for newbies o), ROI is higher with coloured capsicums, be ready to prune and trellis for sustained production and for products of higher quality and grade

check through the thread, and my YouTube channel. It will germinate but it has many disadvantage, rodent can pick it, if like Three consecutive rain should fall after you plant large percentage will not germinate, etc.

I personally cant be bothered about adding extra cost to my cultivation process especially cocopeat so I seed directly. I have been doing it for 3 years now and I find it ok except on few occasions where the germination was poor.

it is the work of those tiny ants, they dealt with me decisively, ate 100g of cucumber seeds and 300g of watermelon seeds.

except you use seed force or seed tray, they'll continue to eat it. the best option is seed tray
