For sometime now I can't update regularly about our tomatoes adventure because of two reasons one is dry season stress and two is a complete crash in my health,back to business,the tomato nursery was a success as we had 80-90% germination,we also made use of used satchet water bags as an alternative to nursery trays,a water sachet company nearby is quite happy for us to take away their trash,the tomatoes Padma f1 are 4 weeks today and we will start transplanting tomorrow,pls we will appreciate any advice from tomato farmers on the way forward

.
Thank God for your recovery. Is dry season the best time for tomatoes? I thought it is rainy season.

Harcles:
Some Corrections please.

Romans 3:23

Says all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God and it continued in Romans 5:12 saying

12 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned.
Then in verse 19

For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

This is the need why all men needs to be saved, because sin and death was passed on to us from Adam.

THE BIG QUESTION IS SHALL WE CONTINUE IN SIN.

I will answer this just as Apostle Paul in Romans 6:15-16

15 What then? Shall we sin because we are not under law but under grace? Certainly not!

16 Do you not know that to whom you present yourselves slaves to obey, you are that one’s slaves whom you obey, whether of sin leading to death, or of obedience leading to righteousness.

Paul said no to this question and he started putting light to the question in verse 3 and 4.

3 Or do you not know that as many of us as were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into His death?

4 Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should WALK IN NEWNESS OF LIFE.


I emphasized the last word , that we should walk in newness of life.


To clarify what he meant he said in verse 7 that he who is dead is free from sin, meaning that a dead man doesn't sin.


So he gave us a mind therapy in the following verses.

11 Likewise you also, reckon yourselves to be dead indeed to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus our Lord.

12 Therefore do not let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts.


13 And do not present your members as instruments of unrighteousness to sin, but present yourselves to God as being alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God.


This is a duty which is also called renewing of the mind.

You may ask, but is it possible not to sin..

I found that answer in Galatians 5:16-17

16 I say then: Walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfill the lust of the flesh.

17 For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary to one another, so that you do not do the things that you wish.

It is not possible, I say not possible for anyone to walk in the Spirit and still fulfill the lust of the flesh. He must either be walking in the Spirit or in the Flesh at any seconds of time.

So this gives an answer to what Paul meant by saying we should walk in newness of life.(the mind therapy and the walk in the Spirit).

For understanding on walking in the Spirit read Romans 8:5.

Before I conclude, these are some key points to know....

Hebrew 4:15

15 For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

It says Jesus Christ was tempted like us and was without sin.

1 Peter 2:21-22

21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps:

22 “Who committed no sin,
Nor was deceit found in His mouth.

It also says that Christ left an example for us to follow and that he committed no sin.

1 Corinthians 9:26-27

26 Therefore I run thus: not with uncertainty. Thus I fight: not as one who beats the air.

27 But I discipline my body and bring it into subjection, lest, when I have preached to others, I myself should become disqualified.

Apostle Paul also spoke about his efforts towards subjecting his body.

Key points to know that God is not a joker.

Revelation 21: 7-8

7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. 8 But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”

2 Peter 2:4-10

4 For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;

5 and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;

6 and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly;

7 and delivered righteous Lot, who was oppressed by the filthy conduct of the wicked

8 (for that righteous man, dwelling among them, tormented his righteous soul from day to day by seeing and hearing their lawless deeds)—

9 then the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations and to reserve the unjust under punishment for the day of judgment,

10 and especially those who walk according to the flesh in the lust of uncleanness and despise authority.

This is my humble correction to the subject.. I will not fail to say that should incase you sin ...

1 John 2:1-2

My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

2 And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.

Chapter 1:9 says if we sin we should confess our sin and He is faithful and just to forgive us...

This is the truth we should walk with and to guide us. there is a sin also that will not be forgiven..

Hebrew 10:26-31

26 For if we sin willfully after we have received the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins,

27 but a certain fearful expectation of judgment, and fiery indignation which will devour the adversaries.

28 Anyone who has rejected Moses’ law dies without mercy on the testimony of two or three witnesses.

29 Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

30 For we know Him who said, “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. And again, “The Lord will judge His people.”

31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.


This is after you have obtained the knowledge of the truth and you kept it aside and continue to galavant in your sin or continue enjoying your old sinful life before you accepted the free gift of righteousness by believing in Jesus Christ, then wahala dey wait for you for judgement day...

God bless you all and I urge you to run this race with certainty like Apostle Paul , also take the mind therapy seriously...

Bless

.
God bless u. This op and his misleading message self. No wonder the kind of born agains we see these days.

tega2luv:
My personal take on this is that, let's learn not to judge and if you have a basic training on christianity then I believe you know the things christ forbids us from doing, weda born again or not we still commits sins unknowingly, the bible also said judgments is of the lord, help if you are at an advantage, live a peaceful life while you still draw air, and always pray for forgiveness,may God help us.

.
The bible never say we shud not judge rightly. Because once u tell sb to repent from sin, u have judged his action b4 saying that. Rather, the bible condemns harsh judgement that has to do with the eternal state of a person. We shud not tell people that they will go to hell without adding "if u don't repent". We are also not allowed to judge sins we are guilty of.

Mercisharelove:
To summarise

Romans 7:24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death? 7:25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.


I pray it makes sense to a lot of you

.
Oh my God! What ERROR are u people promoting. Read bible in CONTEXT! Try different translations to get the correct meaning. This passage is in no way telling u to sin in ur flesh and serve God in ur spirit.
.
2 Peter 3:15-16
15 Bear in mind that our Lord’s patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.

He writes the same way in all his letters, speaking in them of these matters. His letters contain some things that are hard to understand, which ignorant and unstable people distort, as they do the other Scriptures, to their own destruction.
.
Don't destroy urself with misinterpreting the bible. Christ came in human flesh to get rid of sin in ur human flesh. Nobody that is born of God will continue to sin wilfully in the flesh!
.
Matthew 3:8 ►
Prove by the way you live that you have repented of your sins and turned to God.

Kudos to you all

. Welcome bro. But remember to start small.

fiddzy:
sir but u know laraforce gold has imidacloprid as a.i, its just that white fly r highly regenerative. according to tip from bozz okoro. prevention is better than cure in whitefly control. using series of different a.i to confuse whitefly eg acetamiprid, imidacloprid, abamectin ,d.d force as early as 2nd week of planting every 5 days is good.

.
Ok, thats gud. He shud spray both top and bottom of leaves. One research shows that when u do this, u will control whiteflies successfully without using too many pesticides at once. He shud also clear surrounding bushes with herbicide.

aquadude15:
good morning.
pls I am having problem with White flies on my farm.
I have sprayed a mixture of laraforce gold 50ml and sniper 10ml per knapsack twice within an interval of 4 days but they keep increasing in their numbers when I checked them again this morning.
pls help me urgently

.
U are not using the right pesticide. Go for Abamectin (punch) or Imidacloprid (Imiforce or Courage) or emmamectin benzoate (Caterpillaforce or Hallakat). Irrigate well. After irrigating, dig few inches into the ground in several spots. If it is not wet, irrigation is poor.
.
Least I forgot, cover both top and bottom of leaves with the pesticide. That's how u deal with stubborn pests.

DamnnNiggarr:
Proverbs 26:4-5 – Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself. Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own eyes.

The self-confident fool thinks too highly of himself and his opinions, and he shares them freely. How should a wise person deal with him? First, remember that giving him honor is no more fitting than snow falling in summer (Proverbs 26:1). Praise and respect will only confirm him in his conceit. So how should you deal with a talking fool? The advice in 26:4-5 seems contradictory.

“Do not answer him according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself,” that is, do not engage him on his own terms. During Jesus’ last public teaching in the Temple, Sadducees came to Him making fun of the Resurrection, with a story about seven brothers who each married the same woman as each brother died in turn. No children were born to any of the brothers. So, they asked, “In the resurrection, when they rise again, whose wife will she be? For the seven had her as wife.” If Jesus had answered according to their folly, he would have tried to answer the question, who would have her as wife – the first, the last, her favorite? Answering that question would have drawn Jesus into their foolish thinking. It would be like trying to answer such queries as, “What was God doing before He made the world?” “Can God make a square circle?” “If God is glorified by forgiving sins, should we not sin often?” “When did you stop beating your wife?”

You cannot answer a fool according to his folly, or you will be like him, but you should answer a fool according to his folly, so that he won’t be wise in his own eyes. Jesus answered the Sadducees. “Is this not the reason you are wrong, because you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God? For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven. And as for the dead being raised, have you not read in the book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God spoke to him, saying, ‘I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob’? He is not God of the dead, but of the living. You are quite wrong (Mark 12:24-27).” The Sadducees were answered. In front of the crowds, Jesus exposed their foolishness, and a scribe congratulated him. “Teacher, you have spoken well (Luke 20:39).”

The wise person will know how to apply this proverb, refusing to be drawn into silly questions, which Paul told Timothy to avoid (II Timothy 2:16-18, 23), yet answering opponents with gentleness that exposes their folly, so that they might have a chance to escape and come to know the truth (II Timothy 2:24-26). Only a fool reads Proverbs 26:4-5 and pronounces it self-contradictory!

.
Nice one! Thanks.

Immorality being promoted. God will judge!!! With all these nonesense tell me how it will be well with this nation. What is she going to teach girl children? Prostitution and fornication?
.
Those of u supporting this evil, remember it will return back to u some day.

Above all, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.

They will say, “Where is this ‘coming’ he promised? Ever since our ancestors died, everything goes on as it has since the beginning of creation.”

But they deliberately forget that long ago by God’s word the heavens came into being and the earth was formed out of water and by water. By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.

But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. Instead he is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.

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.

leksymaxy:
sir how can i get the neem oil?

.
I don't use it now, but I hope buying from Contec Agro in Delta state. They sell organic pesticides. Their Neemsol cost N5500/L. There are some sellers here on NL, but I have not tried them.

leksymaxy:
I noticed some powder on the leaves of the plants and after some consultation, i discovered that it is the spore of the fungus that cause the powdery mildew. This project is based on organic farming, so we are going to apply sodium bicarbonate [baking soda] mixed with enough water to the plants to kill the fungus and eradicate the spores

.
If u can get neem oil, it will be better. It is both an insecticide and fungicide.

ideepaul:
bleach isn't effective, furadan is a better option...I am trying to remember the name of a soil treatment/nematicide I was told to use by a big farmer, he applies through the drip tapes and it's effective. Control nematodes on your tomato/pepper farm, and you have solved 30% of your challenges

.
Pls keep us updated when u get the name.

okoroemeka:
I read somewhere that bleach helps to kill off some bacteria,so we will use bleach and furadan to treat the soil

.
Don't use bleach because they contain sodium which is bad for plants in large quantity. When I will tackle tomato, I intend warming the soil in a large drum. But note that exceeding a certain temperature will cause the soil to release some toxic chemicals that will kill plant. I have forgotten the recommended temperature range (82°C) but u can google it. Using well prepared compost will also help. Vermicompost and compost tea will be super good.

ideepaul:
if you want to know how effective ash is, just burn a section of the debris in your farm, and observe the difference between the ash enhanced soil even after many months compared to the best manure application, the only challenge is having the non-leached ash it in large quantities...ash has higher Ca,P,K values , but manure improves the soil organic matter quality, slowly releases nutrients and improves water retention capacity

.
U're right. Ash is good if used correctly. Another thing that contributed to the superior growth is that the heat from the fire kill off all microbes - both good and bad ones. So the plant will not be slowed down by bad microbes (nematodes, pathogenic bacteria and fungi etc). People can read more about using ash here:
http://farmersjoint.com/thread-29070.html

okoroemeka:
local farmers in my area are planting the local variety now,no manure,no fertilizer,no irrigation,no pesticide,talk of fungicides,but it survives,thrives and yields,so we will tackle will by first treating the soil and using drip irrigation for consistent moisture.

.
Can u say more on your soil treatment?
.
The local farmers I know don't harvest theirs for long.

Idemujoseph:
FarmTech, how was your experience in using palm kernel ash? I remember you experiment with it few months ago?

.
I can't remember experimenting with that. But I do apply ash to my farm sometimes.

I can only suggest u go into safer crop farming like cassava, sweet potato or cocoyam. But first, check the market to see price trends and ppant in the rainy season. If u don't know how to raise birds u will loose the money. I think goat/sheep, local fowls farming will also be OK if they will be safe.

okoroemeka:
I know this is a cucumber thread but it must be expanded to accommodate other veggies instead of opening a new thread I have decided to share my tomato adventure to my fellow farmers so we will be properly guided we have grown different vegetables over the years but tomatoes has been a no go area for virtually every farmer in my location for reasons I can't tell,so now after digesting information from threads from jethro,obataobi,farmerakinloye ,jidestroud and others,we have taken the plunge and was assisted with Padma F1 seeds from cedaagrochemicals,it will be a test on 2-3 plots,if it works,a big IF,we will expand to an acre,

Following too. Sudden wilting of mature plants has been a big problem

Everyone who makes a practice of sinning also practices lawlessness; sin is lawlessness. You know that he appeared to take away sins, and in him there is no sin. No one who abides in him keeps on sinning; no one who keeps on sinning has either seen him or known him. Little children, let no one deceive you. Whoever practices righteousness is righteous, as he is righteous. Whoever makes a practice of sinning is of the devil, for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the works of the devil.
