masties2: Yeah, I felt so too until someone on this forum made me know that. And, for me, this is the first time I'm seeing cucumber leaves in "real" life 1 Like |

dont8: I decided to test the waters first with one foot. When I'm sure that it is not too deep, I can now enter firmly with my two feet. In essence, this was just a test run, to know if it can do very well here in Rivers state, learn the rudiments of farming cucumber and prepare to enter into commercial cucumber farming. 1 Like |

Neduzze5: Good luck on your endeavor bro. If our I our tomato growers apply stakes, they'll experience similar improvement on extra effort. |

@RAKITIK @Neduzze5 How can I prevent my young plants from being eaten by insects and snails ? I always have a problem with these. |

Neduzze5:Thanks alot |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 11:18am On Aug 03, 2015 |
emonkey: My own problem is with the ants... I have not yet found a means of taking them out. As for the snails, you can catch them and domesticate them. They are another source of making money. |

Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 4:37pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
enolife: No... That is Tomato |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 4:38pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
enolife: Yeah... That's called staking. Or trellising. I've actually done that but you know not all fruits will hang on the trellis. Some will be on the ground. |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 4:39pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
jordyspices: You can get it at Oil mill bus stop at Port Harcourt. |

Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by emonkey(m): 6:53pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
Neduzze5: Do those small snails grow. I thought that was how the species are and they can never be as big as the giant ones |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 6:59pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
emonkey: Yeah... They grow... There are some species that don't grow especially those that have a standard V shape |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 7:00pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
enolife: I will do that. But you equally have to note that it was planted in a greenhouse. |

Neduzze5:what do you mean by green house |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by emonkey(m): 7:32pm On Aug 03, 2015 |
Neduzze5:Those are the ones in my garden. They are very destructive to young plants |
Re: Cultivating Cucumber - A Blog by Neduzze5(m): 3:12pm On Aug 04, 2015 |
enolife: A green house is a sort of housing built solely for planting certain crops in such a way that the necessary elements for the germination and growth of those crops are controlled by man. For example, rain, sunshine, pests etc. For example, Tomatoes need about 5 hours of sunshine daily. If its in the dry season where sun shines everyday, you can use a green house, after 5 hours, you close it up to keep off the sunshine from coming in. Hope I've explained enough so as for you to understand 2 Likes |

emonkey: I don't know what you can really do about them but you can pick them up whenever you see them and throw them away cos I don't really know if pesticides can work on them. |
