1. no! Sometimes I even spray just once, where is the time and money to waste!
2. Depends on rain, sometimes once in two weeks or Three weeks.

👍👍 thanks.
So now that you are using pig manure,

What quantity will you use per plant for cucumber?

Please if you have spare time to water in the evening... Please do.

Evening watering is always the best as the water get to stay in the soil for a very long period of time.

I think it is greengo because of long shelf life. Which one did you plant?

The project I just finished was greengo.
They liked it though for it's very greenish colour.
But some buyers were still asking about the usual big cucumber they know (cu999)

Please sir what quantity of pig manure should be ok per plant?

I use a bucket with a volume of 12L. I fill it up with pig manure and apply to 5-6 plants.

Thank you sir. So sir, I am planning to use pvc pipe as main line for my drip set up.

If you might have an idea, What kind of iron rod material should I use to punch holes on the pipe ?
So that my drip connectors will fit perfectly on the pipe?
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Chidiebubeoji: 3:31pm On Feb 16, 2023
Farmtech, Another question sir, how many fruits can one cu999 plant produce?

I am a great admirer of your work. Ser, what advice can you give to a newbie with zero farming experience looking to embark on a small scale commercial farming? I mean things like budget, type of plant/crop to start with, things to look out for etc.

Hello sir, I hope the work is in progress 👍👍

Please sir, in a land that cassava and ugu have been grown successfully before,
Should I be worried about nematodes.

Is soil treatment with nematicide necessary?
