Average of 7.5 fruits per plant!

3500 9 weeks old Dakar f1 harvested 65 bags yesterday alone but the problem he has is the trellis keep cutting because of the weight of the plant. About half of them are on the floor.

Do u know those twines shoe makers use? Buy it and make trellis out of them with superglue. It will last more than 5yrs under the sun. But buy the thick ones

this is too early unless it's the 30 days variety...single row by 30 or 50cm?

It's 45cm but double on the bed. It's the normal variety but this is parthenocarpic variety which is self pollinating.

The guy here is using water hose to manually water 950 plants in Ogun State. Minimum target here is 200 bags. He is one of my telegram group member.i am managing his farm for using precise nutrition.

Many farmers don't see this because of wrong or poor nutrition. Infact some variety even get ready for harvest as early as 28 days!

Some of these numbers are crazy seriously!
In your opinion, can cu99, Saira and other similar monoecious varieties get any close to for instance 15-20 fruits per plant?

No idea for those monoecious cucumber but Dakar f1 though gynecious produced more than 14 harvest with an estimated 700 bags so far from 3500 plants but the yield is going down now.

It may be possible or close to those numbers for cu999 and co.

With parthenocarpic variety like Mydas, Stilo, Macario f1 and its likes, 40 fruits is a sure bet.
