LovesonBlezz:I'm waiting for the rain to stop before I go for another season. There'll be glut if you do Rainfed farming |

Nezzjnr:I think the cucumber glut in SW is not only about rain farming. From what l observed the price was even better in the peak of the rain than now. Btw, this is more of a pilot(test farm)... |
Re: My Cucumber Farming Experience (pictures) by Nezzjnr: 11:35am On Nov 13, 2021 |
LovesonBlezz:Most Farmers in The North are bringing their goods down to the SW because of the rain too. Cucumber sells at a very High rate around December - Late April or Early May |

Re: My Cucumber Farming Experience (pictures) by soko81(m): 6:24am On Nov 14, 2021 |
Good morning sir, what staking method are you using? Secondly, what's the essence of the folier? |
Re: My Cucumber Farming Experience (pictures) by LovesonBlezz(m): 8:04am On Nov 14, 2021 |
soko81: Bamboo sticks and rope as seen in the picture. The forliar is a liquid fertilizer, it also helps in leaf formation and water retention... |
