Normally it should be 18k...let me put it this way.. any farmer that transplant between (open field) feb-march, and you notice your tomato don't do well like previous years or perhaps you are newbie, it is general including myself, the weather cause it and there is nothing we can do about it. Farmers has being complaining to me, one even said" he suspect one woman behind the ordeal grin grin grin"

Adverse relative humidity induced by the recent heat wave is beyond what irrigation alone can combat...is it the fruit abortion it caused or insect invasion with disease in their wake,etc....

tomato can only do well under some degree of temperature. When you plant open field and it doesn't rain for like a month or your plant is experiencing back to back rain, it will definitely stress the plant.

Cobra no dey market o. Their major distributors from Lagos to Ibadan has run out of stock. Those who have the old stock are selling at a very ridiculously inflated price.

Good evening boss.I actually started this tomato farming around March with the help of someone one who has been in field for a while now,But I didn’t get good results due to fungus attack even tho I have been using some fungicide (saaf and five star)tho I only used the five star to control it when the damage has been done .most times,I notice white spots on my green tomato fruits after rain,I will continue to spray it with five star fungicides ,this spots will later heal back and turn black spots on the tomato till harvest thereby causing me to sell at very low price .pls I’m already planing to start my second nursing,which fungicides do you suggest I should introduce and how to use them.
Thanks in anticipation

what you describe is blight, which I fear pass in all disease that affect tomato.you supposed to introduce that five star to your plant when is exactly a month on field at 15ml per 16 in the evening and at least once in three weeks, you can increase the dosage to 20ml if the disease is obvious. Before you plant or do nursery in that area make sure you remove and burn the debris of the old one, else the disease will transfer to the new one.
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by Farmerakinloye6(m): 8:46am On Jun 05, 2023
