Bro, is the Platinum F1 a Technisem or East-West product? What's your take on continental's Maxim? Thanks. jidestroud: |
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by Farmerakinloye6(m): 3:29pm On Jul 05, 2020 |
aquadude15:the thing is, I am a full time farmer and I have calendar date for all commodity I grow.for example, if am planting maize to sell fresh, then I will plant by may 20-23 so that it will mature by second week of August,by that time plantain will still be scarce, and maize plant by subsistence farmer will be off market.same goes to tomato, at the moment, The Price of crate in akure is # 6000-6500, lag #9000-12000, hearing this price many people will definitely join the ship which later turn to glut. nevertheless, if you understand the game, you will always make meaningful profit anytime you plant. 2 Likes |

@ my ogas which technisem Tomato Is similar to East-west Platinum F1? |
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by Farmerakinloye6(m): 11:42am On Jul 10, 2020 |
hollerbaby:smile... hope you are not expecting me to put figure that you will say "ooh tomato farming is a fastest vomiting money" No! It a tedious work that will put a smile on your face at the end,if done well. Also, nothing bad having a business mind when going into any commodity cultivation, but that doesn't mean you should loose focus. Expenses: you will need to price all the components I listed on page 1 if truly want answer,and if you need any question about them I will answer. Sales and profit: it was #5000 when mine TOMATO came out,now it is #8000 naira in akure at moment.On 10g, your production should be 50-85 crate,can even be more, though knowledge and skills will be the key. 4 Likes |

Bro...How much did you buy the 10g of Platinum? Do you know a reliable seller on NL? Thanks. Farmerakinloye6: |
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by ideepaul: 10:31pm On Jul 13, 2020 |
Farmerakinloye6:143*105ft(15015ft²) is more than 2 plots(60*120)*2=14400ft². Also a standard acre takes 8000-10000 tomato plants (depending on cultivar, agronomic practise, farmers risk taking ability, time of the year, and your climatic zone). By this standard, 2 plots will take between 2700- 3300 tomato plants. You may decide to add more or reduce based on the your risk taking capacity. Spacing for for Padma and platinum is 50cm, farming concepts and practices are dynamic, so you may adapt such to suite your needs |
Re: Step By Step Improve Way Of Cultivating TOMATOES by ideepaul: 10:34pm On Jul 13, 2020 |

People have been ask me how to perforate PVC pipe,here is the pix of hot hand pump. First you make ridges,lay your PVC then use the hot hand pump to put the hole. NOTE you have to be careful in doing it because it has to be just on time,if you do it twice,it maybe too expand!!! 1 Like
