Diary Of The Testrun Of My Cucumber Farm In Ph, My Experience So Far by denero1(m): 8:21am On Oct 27, 2016 |
Have really been interested in agriculture. So I learnt a lot abt cucumber farming and decided to do a testrun on 1 plot of land beside my house. Bush clearing was done, after which tilling of the soil followed. Due to the nature of my job, I was unable to plant my seeds (Murano 2 F1 and Marketer) immediately. After 10 days, I applied inorganic manure (decomposed) to the spots I want to plant my seeds, with a 60cm spacing. Then allowing it to mix with the soil for 2 days, I planted my seeds and staked immediately. I think the pictures will explain better

The seeds germinated within 4 days, but I noticed the marketer specie germinated faster and grows faster than the Murano specie. Will upload my pictures as I will visit the farm today. I forgot to mention, soldier ants attacked my young tender seedling, so I fumigated the farm with pesticides u days ago. I guess that will do the magic.

Very nice. As long as we continue to utilise empty land within our environment, success is guaranteed. Continue to upload your progress. |
