My Vegetable Farm In Pictures. by Redomi(m): 3:26pm On Dec 12, 2022
On monday 5/12/2022, I just thought to myself that I'm going to start a small scale vegetable faring on a plot of land I have somewhere here in Ondo.
The land is just a plot of land, I'm not going to use the whole land, just a little space is enough. On Tuesday, I went to market, bought 1 milk can of efo tete seed and went to the land, clear a little space and till it and I planted the efo Tete.
I started falling in love with what I did on Tuesday, so the next day I went back and clear another place and still panted more efo Tete, next day Thursday, still went to plant efo Tete, okro and efo ooyo.
So far, I have planted efo amunututu, tomatoes, and ball pepper, which I plan to transplant when they grow.

Yes I forgot to mention that I have a little running river below the land, that's where I get water for watering day and night
Re: My Vegetable Farm In Pictures. by Redomi(m): 3:32pm On Dec 12, 2022
My only fear is sun, only little amount of sun reach where I planted, no much sun
Re: My Vegetable Farm In Pictures. by Redomi(m): 3:35pm On Dec 12, 2022
That's the river, very close to where I plant, just few centimeters

Great one sir. Ketiri ke?

I suspect you are not really thinking commercial with that 1plot and especially with the way you are just planting this and that...I understand the feeling.
However, let me just hint you based on personal experience that the 1plot can give you a steady recharge card weekly money of nothing less than 5k minimum if put to good use(considering your environment and market). But to achieve that you will have to focus on just 1 or 2 types of vegetable. Mine was cucumber, ugwu and Tete coz d land was a little more than 2plots.

And for the organic fertilizer you plan to use, try and apply enough on the beds, leave it for a week if possible and turn the soil like twice within the time, wet d soil also. You will get a better result than applying directly after planting.

I hope you will find my suggestions useful

Sorry I just saw this.

By commercial, I simply mean planting with the intention to make money and not just experiment.

I will just use myself as an example. I initially planted Tete just as an experiment but soon discovered that many households in my area favoured it than going to market. So I had to restrategize and make several beds. The effort I put in was to ensure that I never run out of stock every week. And it worked out even though I had to sell selectively(that is, I wasn't selling to just anyone that comes). Each bed gave me a minimum of 1200 and I cultivate like 4-5 beds weekly.

Very fine, though I haven't finished clearing the whole plot of land, I used just few part if the land and I make avergely 2k daily from efo tete only. I'm planning to clear the remaining land and get a labourer to help me till the land.
