Secondly am getting tired of this new workers of mine, left from for a while and I gave specific instructions which they didn’t follow and left nursery outgrowing the tray

Can I still transplant like this from the tray?
Would the yield be any different?

I miscalculated . I transplant the seedlings yesterday at 28th days Old..me and my boys was like woow.. this seedlings get as e b during plant. I will apply first fertilizer by Friday and start staking latest on Monday..

The leaves of my tomato begins to change, all I need is to keep managing it so the fruit will not sick/rotten...

This is fantastic, growing exponentially. But am just curious about the projected harvest. Can't you have up to 800-1000 crates from your farm?

Farmerakinloye6:
Harvest supposed to have start latest by may 15, but could not be so because am broke (fuel) along the line. My colleague that were able to irrigate when there is no rain has started to pluck thier own before May 15.

Chairman no vex ooo. I no see well. Did you say 1. 3plots or 13 plots or 1 acre 3 plots or 1 and half plot. Please clarify for some of us that have been following your thread with keen interest

Farmerakinloye6:
fungicide I used the last time I cultivate tomato were ortiva top, Cabrio duo and saaf, I alternate the three and I don't have issue with my tomato leaf not until I start plucking it... I will advise you to follow the basic (spraying pesticides, manure, weeding, pruning and staking in appropriate time.) seriously and leave the rest for God. Once you start plucking open field tomato fruit, no how the leaf will change which I believe is general everywhere!

The same is happening on the farm currently. How do you manage it? I saw somewhere you wrote that you use Cabrio and saaf. How much ml per 16L do you use for Cabrio and also how many grams/spoons for saaf.

flowmama:



Your leggy seedlings need adequate amount of sunlight, else they will keep growing towards direction of sunlight (+ve phototropism) and stem will be unnecessarily slim. They also need air to avoid damping off. Perhaps you got them covered far too long.
Give them those 2 things and you should be fine.

On another note, you didn't prepare your tray well oo. The cocopeat should be leveled such that the cells of the tray will be visibly distinct from each other. Just trying to imagine how you'll remove the seedlings from the trays at transplanting.

All the best

Thanks ma. They did do well.

Cabrio 30-50ml depend on age why SAAF/funguforce 50-100gm depend on the age. SAAF/funguforce should be your regular. spray Cabrio maximum once in two weeks, fungicide that has Azoxystrobin as ingredient once in a month at 15ml.

Pls sirs what's causes this in tomatoes and how can it be controlled

It's nothing to worry about. Leaf roll isn't a disease. Some tomato species do that in reaction to weather or changes in weather/environment.
