Re: Yam Cultivation From Seedlings To Planting And Harvesting by Imoala: 12:35pm On Dec 29, 2016 |
Part of my yam seedlings I am going to plant around late April or early may in Abuja. If u look closely u will notice I used ashes in preserving my seedlings , the head or top of my yams are always cut out neatly and rub with ashes to prevent them from decaying easily until the next planting season. The second picture is whole seed yam I.e these ones are just the way they are brought from the farm and have not been cut, I didn't rub these with ashes cus they are not cut, but during planting I will cut them rub with ashes before planting them 2 Likes 1 Share

are u going to plant that big yam whole? |
Re: Yam Cultivation From Seedlings To Planting And Harvesting by Imoala: 2:00pm On Mar 17, 2017 |
My brother the best time to plant yam is when you start having regular rain fall like ones or twice a week It also depends on your location, like for me I farm in Abuja, so from my little research I will start planting from late April and early may People who planted around December had to use enough mulching to ensure the seedlings don't burn, but they still experience lost as a result of delayed rainfall which is beyond their control I have also come to realise that in terms of size of the yam, during harvest, there is no significant difference between who plant late and who planted early infanct those that plant late gain more 3 Likes |

[quote author=bizzibodi post=54248386]are u going to plant that big yam whole?[/ Those big yam are still going to be splitted into three sets or part, why I did not cut them into sets now is to reduce rotten seedlings, so when I want to play I will cut them and immediately rub them with ashes before putting them inside the heaps |
