Pls experts in the house, what do you say for someone starting tomatoe farm now in swamp area close to a big non drying stream.

I have read through this thread from page 1 to 62 and I ve understood some basic practices.


I plan to cultivate diva or platinum in 2 plots of land,

I want to use furrow irrigation.

This is my first time farming tomatoe in bush (only planted unknown varieties and uc82 in my garden).

I have access to chiken droppings and am planning on buying chemical fertilizers to support it, (which fertilizer do you think is best I guy)

I have saaf and sharp shooter I have been using in my garden (do u think I should add more or wait for signs).

And am not worried of nematodes since the previous farmers has been using the land for Cucumber farming.

My location is rivers state.

Thanks in advance.

How can I combat late blight please. My tomatoes flowers are just drying off without fruiting and I notice black spots on the stem, leaf and the flower stem

never used that type of irrigation system before, so I don't know maybe it will work. Although am not planting again this year, but I will prefer plantinum than diva for this coming weather.

OK I think I should go with the platinum.

Pls one more question.

I see u used manure and agricultural lime when transplanting,

Did you put those two (manure and lime in the hole b4 planting.

So far I have been using blood(cooked) and eggshells(dissolved with lemon juice).

Cabrio-Duo production has been halted. CDN Thunda is a good alternative.

Good thanks my Oga in the house.
