how many bags did you harvest from the 100 sacks that makes it N5,600
I didnt measure with bag since the woman buying is very close. I harvest the big ones at intervals, arranged in baskets and sent to her.

perhaps he planted one seed per sack. In order to utilize the space in the sack it is better one plant @most three per sack. Though some plant 4 per sack.

I am forced to tell you to try 50 sacks, then come here after 9 weeks with the cost-profit analysis. By that, we will see how much can be made per bag that will be "big" and not "small".

you can do sack farming without owning a land if u have a space in ur house,where you can place and arrange the sack.no mata how small.
for the soil,check around your environment and see if you can spot any good garden soil or black soil.if u can't,then check people that owns flower garden for comercial.some do buy good soil for planting.ask them how you can get one.
for manure, i use poultry dungs to counter some treads here.where they complained of not comfortable with poultry dungs. I used three weeks old poultry dungs.also check around your environment to see if u can get one or two bags.

Good Job op.. please how do u apply the poultry dung manure??

ok.Read from first page. you will see where i talked or commented on the mixing ratio. use for the number of sacks you intend to plant on by breaking it down or scaling up.
But if its on bare ground just work up the soil with the manure. then add little of it in the holes you intend to plant on.

soil top up goes like this. get a good soil and mix with manure(poultry dungs or cow dungs any one) then add up to ur plants and wet twice a day. I had similar experience last two weeks,after applying this soil top. the plants bounced back to green. its like mulching with soil and i need to how u irrigate?.

I mixed the soil with poultry dungs b4 planting and am suspecting it introduce the fungus to my soil. Also my plant are looking fine and green; its just the stem attack thats the problem. I irrigate morn; and evening.
