The God of ndibo and Chioma will keep on making David's life miserable until he does the needful.
This would serve as a lesson to all those toiling with Igbo girls.

Did Davido toil with chioma?

Are u an insider in their relationship?

I'm watching you
nice sweet yam
please don't use herbicides again because it is going to store in the plant and the sack. And it will later be consumed by us

Sack farming is fun and less stressful, without requiring too much space or capital....

It allows people to grow crops in their backyards, and other places. With sack farming, crops can be grown anywhere. Sack farming encourages people to grow crops in small areas.

For me sack farming started like an adventure and out of curiosity from a YouTube video I watched last year, I decided to take up the challenge, since I basically work remotely

Setting up was the hardest part..

*Each Sack cost #50 naira,

*Filling of sack with quality sand cost 200 per sack (you can contract bricklayers and labourers)

* I got seedlings for free

* I got fertilizer for free

*Herbicide cost 6k ( but I used it majorly for a different purpose)

Nature took it over everything and I hardly wet the crops through out the rainy season.
Impressive.
Where and how did you get your seedlings?

Thanks.

Nice one!

It's SAC not SACK

Why not use a bigger sac for planting yam. If you notice, the yam tubers you have so far are small in size, this is because the sac you used limits its growth. The auxins in plants detects if there space and encourage more growth of the yam. Also, I noticed you used sac for the Oil Palm, this too won't allow the palm to grow. I don't think sac is recommended for plant like Oil Palm that have secondary growth.
