ideepaul: SAAF is 12% carbendazim, 60% mancozeb and Zforce is 80% mancozeb. I hope the downy in your farm won't build resistance to the mancozeb. I am planning to use cabrio with saaf . Here is an important info I came across. But this one is about Downy mildew.
Once it starts, protectant fungicides like mancozeb and captan will not control it. Phosphorus acid in combination with metalaxyl will control it if you start spraying before it starts or 3-4 days after it starts.
Strobilurin is good even when the disease is becoming severe but beware of resistance development (that is, the downy mildew microbes can eventually learn how to survive it). To prevent this, rotate Strobilurin with other fungicides like metalaxyl (combine with mancozeb) hexaconazole (combine with mancozeb) etc.
Metalaxyl combined with Mefonoxam ( Rodomil Gold M2) and Rodomil copper are also effective. From: http://farmersjoint.com/thread-28681.html |

okoroemeka: Mountain of harvested cukes,the major challenge we are facing on this site is the light colour of the fruits,I think soil plays a vital role in the final colour of cu999,but there are other varieties that are always greenish regardless of soil and fertility. . Nice one. I think that better fertilization will deepen the fruit color. |

Dubem50: I am a farmer in Port Harcourt Rivers State and I have got my own share of experience both good and bad, smooth and rough when it comes to nursery and raising seedlings. I thought of opening a new thread to share it with fellow farmers but on the other hand, I decided to share it here because I feel it's also a way of giving back to this little community that also contributed to my success in one way or the other in terms of perfecting my skills in raising pepper seedlings. So instead of creating multiple thread, I will prefer to pour all my knowledge here giving you guys weekly updates with photos so that if any body stumbles upon this thread, he/she would find it to be an encyclopedia of hot pepper farming from vast and different contributors and first hand field experience. Not e Farmers. I wish everyone of us also follows suit. Rather than reading through the thread and going our different ways with the knowledge we got, or even running to open a new thread, let's give back, let's make this one concentrated, refined and very rich. B4 I open my own personal thread, I have promised myself to give back to this thread dat contributed to my success. And I won't give crap, I will make it detailed, rich and well laid out. And for those of you still learning, I will make out time out of my tight schedule to consult u via zoom video call or Watts app FOR FREE to help new or intending farmers catch up quickly. I will start writing by tomorrow. I know it's gonna be tasking, but I will do it anyway. So get ready for a new ride on hot pepper. . Good. We're waiting. |

okoroemeka: well,I know it is beneficial to also spray behind the leafs but with some crops it is simply impossible,like staked cucumbers can not be sprayed behind the leafs,only pepper, eggplant,etc are well positioned for such. . True. It can still be done but it will be slower. |

numen: Please what's the name of this insect and it's effect on pepper plants? . Those are nymphs of stink bugs. I also sight them on my pepper farm. So far I've used methomyl and Abamectin against them. I'm watching to see what happen. There effect: "To obtain their food, stink bugs use their stylets to pierce the plant tissue to extract the plant fluids. [32] In doing so, the plant loses necessary fluids, which can lead to deformation of seeds, destruction of seeds, destruction of fruiting structures, delayed plant maturation, and increased vulnerability to harmful pathogens. [32] While harvesting the plant's juices, the stink bug injects saliva into the plant, creating a dimpling of the fruit's surface and rotting of the material underneath." - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brown_marmorated_stink_bug |

okoroemeka: foliar fertilizer, fungicide and insecticides are made to be compatible,you will mix all of then and spray at once, because if you are spraying a big farm like i personally sprayed 15 knapsack on one acre on Saturday and nearly had hunch back you will understand the need to combine and apply everything at once and not to apply one after the other,and please forget about the under leafs application can work with backyard farm not on a big farm. . If u ever have a stubborn pest/disease problem, consider spraying under the leaves. I've came across a research where farmers have to combine 5 pesticides at high doses just to control whiteflies. But the researcher just used 1 pesticide at the right dose. He sprayed both under and on top of the leaves and got the same result those farmers got. |

okoroemeka: yes, still working perfectly no drip emitter blocked so far,the joy of using fertigation in crops like cucumbers is the flexibility it offers,you can use different fertlizer,compst tea, organic manure,etc,but the biggest surprise was the week we fertigated urea,I cannot believe it is possible for a crop to grow so fast,but the danger is more lush thick foliage and that is not what a cucumber farmer needs,we are drawing a master plan to utilize such result in a leafy vegetable like ugu during the dry season,we have a small control farm of 10 ugu plants that we will fertigate urea and see how nasty it can get. . Wow! Nice. Keep me updated. |

okoroemeka: the general yellow of the leafs with greenish veins is caused by poor soil and nutrient deficiency,but I can see on the down left side the beginning of Downy mildrew and on the top right side leaf miner with white lines on leafs,to prevent such nutrient deficiency on such poor soils, chicken manure must be applied before planting and applied again before flowering,then npk can take over .

Nice. Churches shud bring back holiness and righteousness messages. All these prosperity and my-enemies-die messages won't help. There are many church goers that will sing the worse of immoral songs, wear the worst of immoral dresses and still belief they are in right standing with God. It is happening because pastors no longer educate members on rights and wrongs.
Hebrew 5:13: For everyone who lives on milk is still a baby and does not yet know the difference between right and wrong.
But unfortunately, many pastors are not ready to educate their members about popular sins like immodesty, immoral songs and jokes, celebrities etc. |
