FarmTech: Please, can NPK be applied to cucumber two weeks after planting? I didnt use organic manure before planting. Though few, for backyard gardening. Thanks |

Is there any selective herbicide for cucumber? |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by mcyemite(m): 9:43am On Jun 11, 2023 |
Good morning fellow farmers..please , considering fragility of cucumber seedlings,after how many days after germination is it advisable to transplant? |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Aquadude16: 10:22am On Jun 11, 2023 |
EricBraven:You can use any contact herbicide but endeavour to do control spray with spray guard |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Aquadude16: 10:25am On Jun 11, 2023 |
mcyemite:Like 3 days after germination if they had a good amount of sunlight 1 Like |

5:14am ((((My Okro project is finally done today. I am indeed grateful to God for it was a successful one. I learnt a lot through the process and as a matter of fact I will be downsizing next time just to manage better. Also due to large acreage being used we need extra hands on harvesting days in which those women are trying to suck us dry due to the fact that they know we can’t harvest alone. A basket was being harvested for 500naira and transportation to and fro was on us. Thank you all for sticking around. God bless all your legit endeavors))) This is a statement from one of our farmer here on nairaland. 2+2 might not always give you 4 in agric, you can't downplay the importance of organic growth in agric. That is why you see many abandoned massive agric project. But if you have more than enough cash, it is better you invest not more that 20% of it so as to have something to fall back to, then have a mentor with a successful farm record that is ready for consultation because what we see online here are just the basics of agric 5 Likes |

I am planning to do my first cucumber seedling tomorrow and I am honestly feeling lazy ahead about the transplantating...and it really got me thinking if it's worth doing or I should plant it directly into the soil...I want to plant 3 sachet of greengo. Pls senior men that have done both direct planting and using of seed trays...is it worth the stress? @Aqudude16 @REUBEN010 @Farmerakinloye6 @chidiebubeoji @FarmTech |

mcyemite:I prefer planting direct the i spray conc insecticide to Wade of insect and rat that can eat the seed 1 Like |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by REUBEN010(m): 11:34pm On Jun 13, 2023 |
mcyemite: Transplanting of cukes is a bit more technical than that of tomatoes because cukes are younger and fragile when transplanted. Just like opined above, I'll suggest direct seeding and spraying of heavy concentrations of insecticide around the boundaries for the first 1week to ward off rodents and insects. You can also nurse some seeds in seedtrays concomitantly for gapping up to replace unsprouted hills. 3 Likes 1 Share |

mcyemite:. I plant direct |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Farmerakinloye6(m): 12:11pm On Jun 14, 2023 |
mcyemite:I never and will (direct plant) never try it, too risky! During dry season I understand but raining season if you plant and there is back to back rain ( like three consecutive rain) how many do you think will germinate? Cucumber, melon and water melon do not like too much rain for germination unlike maize e.t.c between I sold 9k yesterday 3 Likes 1 Share |
