As for those goat that eat your crop the only antidote is to get a goat sheet pound it in powder form soak it in a container filled with water for three days sprinkled it on the leaves of the crop. Those goat will never near the crop again

I can imagine what you went through to make those heaps . I just hope you still enough space to try your hands on some other veggies?
By the way, hope you intercropped with Maize? The second rain is here already.

Veggie, yes. Maize no.

My first maize didn't do very well, i got reports while in school that a rodent was chewing the maize stems.

I have been successful with soko and tete so i sprinkled them along the heaps, while the tomatoes have their own bed.

Hello.
I love this garden thread, but I have a problem. Anytime I plant crops like cucumber, watermelon, chillies and some, the flowers they produce are been eaten by lizards everyday. What can I do to stop this

Try and fence the garden to an extent.

Do you face problems like this

Not from lizards.

But we are still in dry season, so probably that's why the flowers withers quickly, because of lack of moisture.
And i have not read where lizard eat crops before.

I know what am saying, I see them eating my flowers live and direct. I don't know what to do because I am losing a lot

Reading this from page 1 seems like time travelling!
I found it highly insightful and it'll aid the set-up I already have.
Kudos to the op and Jidestroud.

Yea the snails are mostly AF. I caught a glimpse of one AM.
Once they (AF) start laying eggs and hatch that cage won't contain. You need be planning for extra pen for the baby snails.

Make sure the pen isn't in flooded area too.

I am also rearing some snails I picked from my garden. AM and AF.
Already laid some eggs

can you teach me? i have some snails playing around here maybe I could rear them
