DuduEkun:


Thanks for reaching out.

Basically what I read is that I have to import the UV treated Polyethylene cover? I see quotes on Alibaba anybody wan to share their experience on ordering on Alibaba platform?

Healthilyea:

Hello, I have contacted several sellers on Alibaba. I contacted the lady that owns the 1st bamboo structure in d photo I posted earlier, she was kind enough to introduce me to the contact she bought uv poly and net from, funny enough it was one of the sellers I already contacted before. But I got a cheaper deal from another seller. I intend to pay and ship soon.
I sent u a pm

DuduEkun:


Hey thanks Healthilyea, please count me in by letting me in on the cost, shipment and all. I am looking to buy about 800sqm's worth of polythene cover and 150 sqm's worth of net.

where did you source your drippers from?

I need to have finished my construction by November? Please be kind to give me the contact..

DuduEkun:
Regarding Tomato Ebola and the evil moth, is there anyone with experience to share about the Pheromones and Tutrack that the Kenyans seems to swear about?
Has it worked in Nigeria?
Is it also available here and if so, at what price per unit?

It sounds like a likely solution for Tuta absoluta in and open field cultivation. What do you guys think?

Wow, this staking is interesting , the twines seem to be vertical rather than horizontal? I am assuming this isn't from the top ?

nikaShow:
Wow !

Jethro , I remain immensely impressed by your dedication.
Looks beautiful bt I have my reservations; first, they use net all over. Adverse weather might cause havoc. Secondly, they seem to have used PVC all through. They would have mixed it with timber. A strong wind, could be catastrophic. Lastly, the laying of the net, doesn't seem firm to the body of the pipes. Water might form on the nets after rain. Looking at it from experience, it will fail the 'drum test'. Please across to them and tell them my concerns.
I also am following a locally made screen house. Made by some brilliant young minds in ibadan, Nigeria....they are also growing tomatoes, they are doing aeropony, I'm watching out to see the fate of the tomatoes, the screen house they built is still expensive, fabricated locally as well, but looks great for the job, but I want to see the crops result.

Pls, keep up the persistent great work, that gold is close !

Seen it work in Kenya but do not know anything about Nigeria. It sells for about $8 for a complete pack which comprises the trap, lure holder, sticky paper, tutrack sachets which contains the lure. A lure is replaced after 8 weeks. A tutrack sachet on its own sells for $1. 10 traps is recommended for an acre (8 plots)

peterbabs:



Thanks, Pavore9, for the tip.
Do you know if tutrack is sold in Nigeria?
Can you assist with getting it sent from Kenya?

MrKong:
