Pls help
okoroemeka
framtech
and all farmers here

.
I haven't use drip b4.

Sin doesn't pay! Just look at how people destroy their lives.

Farmerakinloye6:
Mr. Okoroemaka has answered part of the question. Nothing is eating the leafs again, Also want it to be fit for eating. my fear now is Downy mildew ravaging people farm. I went to two of my friends farm, I was shock when I saw damage Downy mildew had caused. It like this weather too contribute to it (south west)

.
Thanks bro.

okoroemeka:
Cameroon giiant Cavendish banana variety we are testing on our farm and the result is impressive,so we are going ahead with multiplying and getting more plantlets for farmers demand this coming planting season and uniform sized crops,we are targeting 500 plantlets from our first propagation .

.
Great. I wish I planted something like this! You see those dry, hanging leaves, remove them bc they attract pests and diseases.

okoroemeka:
from my own perspective stopping insecticides use in flowering cucumber farm is a smart idea,the farmer planted to harvest cucumber,he didn't plant to harvest healthy greenish leafs,if he continue to use insecticides this dry season with few bees and pollinators he may have a strange case of healthy crops with poor yield, ironically it is the devil's alternative,if he continues intensive insecticides application he will have very good healthy crops with very poor yield,but if he stops the application he will have a slightly insect infected farm with bees of course and a good yield,for us we always choose yield and good production.

.
Thanks. What about using neem oil at this stage.

Farmerakinloye6:
I use rich soil as my insecticide.am stopping usage of insecticide tomorrow. How do you wet? If you are wetting from the head to the base,it is wrong! It will encourage disease or virus. Wet only the base. To my knowledge I don't think there is way to eradicate white fly fully in a farm. What is happening to crop? Upload it

.
Why do u want to stop insecticide applicatn?

[quote author=nuelleoz post=97573102][/quote].
Pig manure not good? But I'm using it successfully. Mention the pests/diseases in pig manure and tell me how other manures are safer

jidestroud:
Nope. Just reading through...

.
Since u have space, find and plant some of those leguminous trees. It will help a lot during dry season.

jidestroud:
The Fencing!!!

Currently working (almost through though) on the enclosure for my goats for my plantains to survive this period. It's a 50x50ft enclosure with trees in it (hoped to do 1plot but funds no gree me at the moment ). I will be erecting 3 shelter rooms for them in it.

Note: It took about two days (and still on it) to do the fencing since all jobs was done by self....I lazy die (Limited funds

.
Have you come across the goat feed formulae I posted here: http://farmersjoint.com/thread-28995.html

Farmerakinloye6:
Flowering is obvious now and growing like seriously.

.
Very very good. Keep it up.

Righteousness2:
Whether the nail in question is the one used on the hands of JESUS Christ or not, does not really Matter

What Matters is that JESUS CHRIST was Bruised, beaten and nailed to the Cross because of You and I. HE had no sin in Him, but HE took all that pain, slaps and beatings that we might be Saved.

What Matters is that Salvation has Nothing to do with your Financial or non financial Status. It is Free of Charge for Whoever Comes for it.

What really Matters is that HIS hands are wide open to Forgive and Receive anyone that comes to Him , irrespective of whatever you have done.

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

What Matters is for All to know and Understand that JESUS Christ is the only way to Eternal Life. There is no other way.

What Matters is that same JESUS is Coming to Snatch away, All that Believe in Him and Accept Him as Lord and Savior.

Receive Him now that you can! The next Moment could be Late..

.
Welcome back bro. May God deal with the mod that ban you!

Farmerakinloye6:
four four days for now.

. OK.

Very funny. People want cultism to stop, but they will promote and follow popular musicians that are cultists. We shud be expecting worse to come. From childhood, parents expose their children to sexually immoral songs. What then shud we expect? Repent and give ur lives to Christ.

okoroemeka:
the major pitfall we discovered in a tomato farm project is insects,they are the main transmitters of tomato viral diseases,we followed a weekly insecticides application with lackadaisical approach thinking it is cucumbers that can live happily with whitefly,,not until we lost a few crops to tomato leaf curl virus that made us sit up and buckle hard to climb out of the pit, luckily we are able to crush the whitefly infestation while discarding 10-15 infected crops, the Battle of a tomato farm is won or lost at the Frontlines with insects,they are the enemy,from whiteflies,thrips,mites,hopper, caterpillars,etc

.
Keep it up man. How often do u spray insecticides now?

jay99:
We sell cow dung manure @ #400/kg and also supply to any part of Nigeria. Call 08161668884.

.
u want to kill farmers? I buy big 25kg bags of pig manure for just N100.

Farmerakinloye6:
Been busy like seriously! The cucumber is far faster than me.

.
A very neat farm u have there. Keep it up. Control insects aggressively because many of them love cukes. How often do u spray pesticides?

more

The ones u sold to me are doing well.

bigsammay:
Yes... 23k per roll

. How many meters is a row?

jesusjnr2020:
I get your point. I'm a spiritual perfectionist so I am not settling for lusting, even just that of the heart.

That's the essence of this post, to make people not settle for such as well, that's why I said it's a sin and you can see that many are not taking it lightly.

However the Truth is that lust of the heart alone is not a sin unto death. That's my point.

Thanks and God bless.

.
We are all learning. So I'll like u to list some sins that are unto death and those that are not. Because for now, I understand "sin unto death" to mean any sin that was not confessed and repented from b4 death came. Bible interpretation can be tough sometimes.

jesusjnr2020:
I think you contradict yourself by the bolded, because you can't use your assumptions to conclude that an assumption was wrong.

The explanation you got from Google didn't even help but further complicated matters, because it's doesn't make any real sense...

The saying of John agrees with my position that some sayings of Jesus as that one concerning lust were meant to make men perfect as God was and made man to be in the beginning. Not that such would lead man to hell.

For instance, if Adam and Even had just lusted after the forbidden fruit in their hearts but not eaten of it in the beginning, do you think they would have perished as God said they would if they had eaten of it?

Of course the lust in their hearts led them to eat it, but what if they had stopped at lusting after it in their hearts and not eaten of it, would they have sinned unto death?

It's obvious what the answer is, and i believe that's the standard God sent Jesus to bring back to mankind, hence that saying, but not that lust in one's heart would lead man to hell even if it doesn't proceed out of the heart as fornication, adultery etc.

God bless.

.
I don't play with sin and I don't encourage people to do so. Flee from temptation. Flee from youthful lust. Don't try to see how close u can come to sin without touching it. Satan is a master deceiver.

I finally got to the end of this thread!
It has been a real eye opener and coupled with the power of screenshot I've learnt a whole lot more than I knew before.
Big ups to oga @ Okoroemeka (na man you be) , Ideepaul, FarmTech and other gurus who started this journey from page 1. You've done well
I already have a small backyard garden where I've been planting vegetables since March (lockdown gave me the willpower to do this) and coupled with what I've learnt here, I decided to add cucumber planting also (just for my personal consumption). Ọga Okoroemeka has been of tremendous help. He responded promptly to my messages to him on WhatsApp and gave valuable insights.

I planted the seeds (cucumber) this evening and my fingers arre crossed.

Wish me well!

Shalom.

.
Keep it up bro.

jesusjnr2020:
No it's not. Jesus never said our thoughts defile us but thoughts which proceed from our hearts.

If you could think of killing your brother as Cain did, and you don't allow the thought to proceed from your heart, and try to carry it out, you've tried even though you're not perfect.

Those sayings are to make us perfect as God is not to send us to hell. There are rewards and benefits we lose if we don't obey them but going to heaven is not one of them.

John the brother of James said something of this nature but didn't specify. So although God is the One that decides these things, He made this knowledge available to those of His Own.

.
The bible says there is a sin unto death and there is a sin not unto death. When I google for more explanation, a site says that, a sin unto death is the one somebody engage in and did not repented from till death. The fact remains that the complete meaning isn't clear. So it is wrong to assume that lust will not lead to hell.

jesusjnr2020:
Because there are sins unto death and those which are not.

And being a sin of the heart, which has not yet manifested in the physical, it shouldn't be a sin unto death.

.
This kind advise is deadly oo. Jesus says that it is our thought that defiles us. And what is defiled won't enter the kingdom of God. It is God that is in the best position to decide because He knows the heart. A lot of factors will be used to decide which is which.

Nigeria don finally cast

BH in Northwest? And southerners thinks they are safe?

I keep on telling people BH ideology is an extreme ideology with a well-structured plan to conquer the world (God forbid bad thing they can't).

Now their strategy is to gain followers either willingly or unwillingly that is by force. After they are done with NW they will penetrate NC (Maybe they are there already) after that they have the numbers already they won't need Gorilla warfare anymore to penetrate the South, they will start going to the South through bomb blast, road kidnapping etc.


Aisha Yesufu said something sensible yesterday but you all are debunking her due to your shortsighted point of view. Wake up the war is already at your doorstep. BH wants to conquer whole west Africa and imposed their radical ideology on us.


Our leaders have fvcked us all

Is Islam a violent religion? Is it really a religion of peace as they say?
Islamic doctrine teaches Muslims to lie to further Islam (using the doctrine of
Taqiyya to excuse it), that's why their leaders are saying so. ---- https://bibleprophecyandtruth.com/notes/violentIslam
Will Islam rule the world? Is Islam in the Bible?
The prophecies of the Bible and the Muslim prophecies concerning the Antichrist (the Muslim Mahdi) and the false prophet (the Muslim Jesus) mirror each other but the good guys of Islam are the bad guys of the Bible. This is a very good indication that the Antichrist will rise as the Mahdi of Islam and will unite the Christian world with him via the false prophet and create a global Islamic religion.
Take a look at the following list:
Much of the teaching in Islam comes from the Hadith and Sunnah. It's not like the Bible where I can just give you a verse to read. As such, the Islamic prophecies listed are from multiple sources. They all come from the Q'uran, Hadith, Sunnah and other Muslim sources - see references below
. Bible: The Antichrist is an unparalleled political, military, and religious leader that will emerge in the last days. - Dan 8:24-25, Dan 11:40, Rev 13:7-8
a. Islam: The Mahdi is an unparalleled political, military, and religious leader that will emerge in the last days.
. Bible: the False Prophet is a secondary prominent figure that will emerge in the last days who will support the Antichrist.- Rev 13:11-15, Rev 19:20, Rev 20:10
a. Islam: the Muslim Jesus is a secondary prominent figure that will emerge in the last days to support the Mahdi.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet together will have a powerful army that will do great damage to the earth in an effort to subdue every nation and dominate the world. - Rev 13, Dan 7:7, Dan 7:23
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will have a powerful army that will attempt to control every nation of the earth and dominate the world.
. Bible: The False Prophet is described essentially as a dragon in lamb's clothing. - Rev 13:11
a. Islam: The Muslim Jesus comes bearing the name of the one that the world knows as 'The Lamb of God, Jesus Christ." Yet the Muslim Jesus comes to murder all those who do not submit to Islam.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet establish a new world order. - Rev 13:16-17
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus establish a new world order.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet institute new laws for the whole earth. - Dan 7:25, Rev 13
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus institute Islamic law all over the earth.
. Bible: The Antichrist is said to "change the times." - Dan 7:25
a. Islam: It is quite certain that if the Mahdi established Islam all over the earth, he would discontinue the use of Saturday and Sunday as the weekend for days of rest but rather Friday, the holy day of Islam. Also, he would most certainly eliminate the Gregorian calendar and replace it with the Islamic calendar used in every Islamic country.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will both be powerful religious leaders who will attempt to institute a universal world religion. - Rev 13:12
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will institute Islam as the only religion on the earth.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will execute anyone who does not submit to their world religion. - Rev 13:15
a. Islam: Likewise, the Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will execute anyone who does not submit to Islam.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will specifically use beheading as the primary means of execution for non-conformists. - Rev 20:4
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will use the Islamic practice of beheading for executions.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will have a specific agenda to kill as many Jews and Christians as possible. - Rev 13:7, Dan 7:21, Dan 11:30
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus hate Jews and Christians and will kill as many as possible until only a few are left hiding behind rocks and trees.
. Bible: The Antichrist and the False Prophet will attack to conquer and seize Jerusalem (the battle of Armageddon). - Rev 16:14, Rev 18:19, Ez 38:16
a. Islam: The Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus will attack to reconquer and seize Jerusalem for Islam.
. Bible: The Antichrist will set himself up in the Jewish Temple as his seat of authority (the abomination of desolation). - 2 Thess 2:4, Dan 11:45, Dan 9:26-27, Dan 11:31, Dan 12:11, Matt 24:15
a. Islam: The Mahdi will establish the Islamic caliphate from Jerusalem.
. Bible: The False Prophet is said to do many miracles to deceive as many as possible into supporting the Antichrist. - Rev 13:13-14
a. Islam: The Mahdi himself is said to control the weather and the crops. His face is said to glow. We can also assume that since Jesus is viewed as having been empowered by Allah to work miracles when He was here on earth the first time, He will most likely be expected to continue to do so when He returns.
. Bible: The belief at the time of Muhammad (and still believed by some people today) was that the Antichrist is described as riding on a white horse in the Book of Revelation. - Rev 6:2
a. Islam: The Mahdi is described as riding on a white horse (ironically in the same verse in Revelation).
. Bible: The Antichrist is said to make a peace treaty (with many) with Israel for seven years (the Confirmation of the Covenant). - Dan 9:27
a. Islam: The Mahdi is said to make a peace treaty through a Jew (specifically a Levite) for exactly seven years.
. Bible: Jesus the Jewish Messiah will return to defend the Jews in Israel from a military attack from a vast coalition of nations led by the Antichrist and the False Prophet (the battle of Armageddon). - Rev 19:11-16, Dan 7:9-13 and 22, Dan 2:34, Dan 2:44-45
a. Islam: The Dajjal, the Islamic Antichrist, will gain a great Jewish following and claim to be Jesus Christ and fight against the Mahdi and the Muslim Jesus.
. Bible: The antichrist spirit specifically denies the most unique and central doctrines of Christianity, namely the divinity of Jesus, the incarnation of God in the flesh, and the substitutionary death of Jesus on the Cross. - Dan 11:30 - Makes war with the saints as shown in above scriptures - The world today is trying to make Jesus unimportant and deny that He is God Himself
a. Islam: Islam doctrinally and spiritually specifically denies the most unique and central doctrines of Christianity, namely the divinity of Jesus, the incarnation of God in the flesh, and the substitutionary death of Jesus on the Cross.
. Bible: The primary warning of Jesus and the Apostle Paul was to warn Christians of the abundance of deceit and deception in the last days. - Matt 24:24, Matt 24:11, Col 2:8, 2 Cor 11:3, 2 Thessalonians 2:10, 1 Tim 4:1-2, Titus 1:16
a. Islam: Islam is perhaps the only religion on earth that practices deceit as one of its tools to assist its own ascendancy. It actually has a specific doctrine which allows and even calls for deception to be used to achieve its desired end.
. Bible: From the Bible and history we learn that the final Antichrist empire will be a revived version of the empire that succeeds the Roman Empire (the iron mingled with clay of Daniel 2). - Dan 2:31-45
a. Islam: The empire that succeeded the Roman Empire was the combined Holy Roman Empire in parallel with the Islamic Ottoman Empire.
. Bible: When the Antichrist emerges, a system will already exist poised to receive him as a savior and to give allegiance to him. - From Rev 13 and 17, Dan 11 and events that we know will happen, like the 6th trumpet war, we can see how the Bible shows us this is all being orchestrated right now with the "New World Order" and many other things.
a. Islam is already the second largest religion and combined with Christianity constitutes over half of the worlds population. Islam awaits the coming of the Mahdi with universal anticipation. The Catholic church and many Christian churches believe that the Muslims will be saved just like Christianity will be, and believe that they worship the same God as Christianity. It's a very short step to convert to Islam if that is believed to be the truth.

jesusjnr2020:
Have You Sinned If You Looked Lustfully At The Opposite Sex?

Yes you have according to this saying of Jesus:

"But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart." Matthew 5:28

But it's not a sin unto death because this saying of Jesus was intended to make you perfect as the Father is!

Matthew 5:48 (KJV)

Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.

That was how God made man (male an female) to be in the beginning and how man was before he fell into sin. So the purpose God sent Jesus to the Earth, was to restore things back to way they were in the beginning, when there was no lust in man's heart despite that they (male and female) were both naked.

Genesis 2:25 (KJV)

And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed.

So shame only came after lust entered into their hearts via sin, but that was not how God made man to be in the beginning. Hence the purpose of that saying of Jesus was to restore man back to the way God made them in the beginning when there was no lust in their hearts.

Therefore that ought to be the aspiration of every man who is a follower of Jesus; to become perfect as God is and made man to be in the beginning when there was no lust in man's heart.

This Jesus was, being a perfect illustration of the ways of the Father on Earth, hence He desired for His followers to become likewise.

So do not settle for lust even though it just that of the heart, because God desires that you be perfect as He is without lust in your heart, so that you don't give the devil any room to exploit.

With God it's possible to achieve this.

God bless.

How sure are u that it is not a sin that lead into death?

Op, I hope u haven't given up.

we planted the melons and it grew and formed heads ,hundreds of heads,but sadly every rodent and animal decided to take a bite from our melon,unlike cucumber that can have fruit damage and still grow to be saleable,melon if damaged or punctured even on a thiny level will spoil and be unsaleable,we are planning a melon come back but it will be staked,every ball will be lifted off and suspended with twine and old bags off the ground.

Tragic! I suggest u build a low fence (<knee height) round the farm with sticks, dry grass etc. But leave some entry points for the rodents and set traps there. Those rodents (except the tree ones) don't know how to climb, so they will enter thru the entry points.

Depressedkidd:
I'm just reminding those that are shouting nudity is not African blah blah that it actually is. Btw I'm not about religion, but the first step in taking away the strength of any people is to make them hate their own cultures and religions, then introduce yours, go and check all through history, that's how it's done.
Now lemme shock you, bundling what you call "idol worshipping and killing of twins and other evils" actually doesn't sit well with me. Do you know how much evil has been perpetrated all through time in the name of Christianity? The crusades? One of the Bloodiest and most inhumane and longest and most repeated war in history? The witch hunts all through the middle ages when women were tagged witches and burned at the stake in the name of God? And even most recently the killing or beating or maiming of children accused of being witches in this same Nigeria and in other parts of Africa. Every culture and religion has had its evils all across time and history, it's about choosing to see which of those practices don't sit well and abandoning them. Buddhism teaches peace with others and with oneself, as do lots of other religions, just in case you feel that's why Christianity is the best religion. The level of intolerance that Nigerian theists have is out of this world, going as far as burning down religious sites and artefacts all in the name of "cleansing the land". Artefacts that should be protected and guarded and would be worth a lot as windows into the past. Do you think if we want to cleanse the world of evils commited in the name of Christianity there'll be enough oil for it? Stop hyping the white man's culture and religion blindly, select what your own morality feels is good while also being within the legal limit and go with it, and leave the next man to do same at his own discretion. Even the white people that brought the mental shackles of religion have abandoned it in favour of freedom and technological advancement, it's high time we followed suit or the world will leave us behind, it already is. And by abandoning the shackles of religion, I don't mean abandon your religion, just leave the mental prison, that is something you can do by being more tolerant of the next person, respecting their decisions and viewing your fellow people as humans first before Christians or Muslims or ogboni etc. That way we'll all get along and bring ideas together, work together for a better world.

.
Jesus is the only way to salvation. There is no other way. A lot of evil have been done in the name of Christianity, yes. But only God knows those who are Christians.
.
U people and "tolerance" ehh. That was what promoters of lesbianism and homosexualism started with. Today, some churches that bought into the evil idea have now accepted and baptized it. For me, I speak against evil. You Muslim, idol worshippers etc, repent and give ur life to Christ. That is the only way to eternal love life. Come to him and he will teach u true morality.

Beating her is enough? You people are senseless, this forum is fill with mad people. What give him the right to lay his hands on her.

A society that shun evil will have less problem with social vices. People want rape to stop, but they promote bbn, immoral songs and movies, indescent dressings etc. It will never stop. It is a pity that Nigeria have so much lost morals. Imagine influential men promoting something like bbn. U all shud just sit back and see what ur children will become. Promoters of evils. U all will reap what u sow.
