Prosperousman: if you want to enjoy vegetable production, imbibe the use of organic manure such as poultry or rabbit faeces. also if you can get a litre of rabbit urine from a rabbit farmer( mix 1 litre of rabbit urine with 20 litres of water), spray it on the leaves to kill pests that attacks the leaves.
how to water and when to water is very important. watering in the afternoon or when the sun is harsh causes more damage than good to the plants. so water early in the morning or late in the evening. evening watering is better because the water stay long in the soil for usage by the plants unlike in the morning that is easily dried up when the sun is up.
when watering, the roots needs more of the water than the leaves. so focus more on the base of the plants.
over watering causes leaching of essential nutrients in the soil, so avoid it.
I have more to say but...... many thanks |

jidestroud: Hmmm... Oga boss.
The only contribution I have for you is to find alternative means of irrigation. You are a major contributor to what you are experiencing. Your fluted pumpkin is infected likewise, your tomato plants. You are also helping spread faster by showering the whole garden overhead.
Quick one: 1. Where did you get the seeds? 2. What irrigation method are you using? 3. Are you growing organically or employ the use of chemicals?
Let's stop here for now.
Las las, na to discard everything and start afresh. (My opinion though) 1. Got the seeds from my previous farm 2. Irrigation method is water sprinkling using host 3. I used organic manure Your opinion well noted |

redsun: It looks like the ground is waterlogged to me. He may be overwatering it and that could be drowning the plants instead of exercising them. i don't think so, the pix above was actually taken immediately after irrigation |

[quote author=greggng post=99286825]Abnormal yellowing of leaf tissue is called chlorosis. Leaves lack the essential green pigment chlorophyll. Possible causes include poor drainage, damaged roots, compacted roots, high soil pH, and nutrient deficiencies in the plant . Usually, the reason for the yellow pumpkin leaves has to do with lack of water, weather that has been too hot, nutrient deficiency or other stresses.
Solution If the soil ph is acidic ...then you have to improve it by adding lime ...
If the problem is nutrient related ...then add recommended fertilizer
Ensure proper irrigation
Finally if it is pest related ....I will advice you look for enough dongoyaro leaf ...crush it and allow it ferment to the next day ...you may add garlic to it and use it as pesticide to fumigate your farm
[/qu quite insightful, advice well appreciated but the leaves are not even on the plants, they seem chopped off by pest or whatever |

Zdoh: There are parasites eating your vegetables and they wouldn’t stop. Try and fumigate the area and environment and wet the vegetables regular. There is a particular fumigating chemical that will not spoil or destroy your vegetables but kill only the parasite once the perceive it. if u can help with the name of the chemical, I will appreciate. While I still try to get the soil tested |

floss: Also don't rush into applying fertilizers or manure to the farm first, disregard any one encouraging you to do that,you need to know if the soil's ph level first if not the damage will continue...most manure contain higher proportion of alkaline and acidic contents, depending on the manure, fertilizers are mostly acidic, so ignorant of the soil's ph level will ruin every of your farming prowess and damaging your crops... If the soil's ph is okay, then it's likely to be a soil disease, this is where your tenacity will be tested if you love farming because you will spend some money to get the right soil doctor or information on how to go about treating the soil from diseases and pest. alright thanks. I don't think its nutrient related because I applied organic manure on the soil before planting the seeds |
Agriculture › Re: My Vegetable Garden Is Under Attack: Help by churchkilo(op): 4:18pm On Feb 21, 2021 |
WowSweetGuy: Irrigation on the day before a predicted frost provides additional moisture in the soil to increase the amount of heat given off as infrared rays. This extra heat protects the plants from frost injury. A continuous supply of water provided by sprinkler irrigation may also protect plants from frost okk noted |

Attit: I guess this is pepper. Habanero? If not which plant is it? Fluted pumpkin Do you notice some yellow spots on the leaves?.maybe they are just beginning to show yellow spots and then dark spots around it or at the center of the yellow spots? As they are germinating, they leaves are being destroyed by the infection Describe it very well.....dont just talk about the wilt. Get a closer view picture of the plants. Is it the only plant you have in your garden? Thats the only plant in the garden for now What is the name of the variety you cultivated? Fluted pumpkin.If you have the picture of the pack, send it here. Or did you just pick seeds from the market or from bins? Lol. The seed is from my garden of last year
I always appreciate people with gardens. But doing it well is what they dont know. And they dont want to spend. Just one time cost..spend well and make your garden highly productive. |
