I planning for dry season. I've even bought a pumping m/c. But my challenge now is to rent land close to a river in anambra. If anyone can help me pls do, I'll reward u with harvest.

Some people say yellow pepper will grow only in Nsukka. I grew it this year and the harvest was bountifull. Do u have access to a river?

Can u pls start the average price here?

Good day sir, I am one of the great admirers of the nairaland invention,it has been a blessing and a gateway to ideas, entertainment and opportunities for me.
I am interested in forum building . I have gotten a niche(business) and I am considering paying a programmer to coding from a scratch(he is charging 150k).But ran into this discussion on nairaland that nairaland forum started from SMF and operated on that until last two years or so.
So I am asking for your advice concerning the best way to start giving what you already know(and men I really need to cut down cost!)
Also if there are surprises that I am to expect at the teething stage in terms of technical issues,time commitment ,promotion, moderation etc,any of such advice is welcome.have a great day

I use mybb. its free and I love it. Have you started yours?

I live in Awka. just graduated. But I'm from Achalla, Awka-North, LGA. And that is where I intend to cultivate the cucumbers.

Cutes? What's that?

I meant cukes which is a short form for cucumber. Let's keep in touch. I planning to plant mine in Ozeh, close to nkisi river.

eminikansoso:
Onitsha

I'm in Onitsha too. where in particular?

Tex42:
Weldone op... Very educative thread, learning a lot here.

Where are u in anambra? I'm planning to cultivate cukes too. I'm in Nkpor

In as much the defattening will increase protein density, it should not be forgotten that the oil is also important. So why remove something will need to buy when you want to compound your feed. Also adding hot water will result in reduced oil level and hot water will dissolve the oil, thus reducing the oil level especially knowing fully well maggot has high moisture content.

Sterilizing is extremely important to avoid disease transmission.

Yes, they are, Sir!

Congrat man. Though i couldnt access the full content.

jephito:
Current price per bag I don't know but the last I sold around 2 weeks ago was 3k5


Average cucumber per bag: this depends on the size of cucumber and the type of sack. However, I've never counted before so I can't tell.

Last time i counted, one bag contains 88. Both big and small. Actual number will vary depending on size.

jephito:
I planted an open pollinated OP variety called Marketer from Technisem

Thanks.

jephito:
Cucumber can be planted in dry season without getting bitter, provided it gets adequate water.

Tnks. I'll like to plant it this dry season but I want to be triple sure. Have u ever planted it in the dry season. If yes, which variety? Pardon me pls.

can cucumber be planted in dry season without risk of getting bitter-tasting ones. I read that high temperature can cause it.

jephito:
No

OK. I had the problem when I planted mine. but I think it was my fault BC I intercrop with sweet potato and so the rodents see where to hide and feed.

denkyw:
Try strumming...
Dowm_Down_Up--Up_Down_Up. once per chord

No problem boss.I'd do just that.Thanks.

Rubbish! a typical Nigerian hearsay beer palour comment!!! the only reason a Nigerian man comes home to impregnate a woman here is the same reason some men cheat or even sleep with other women outside their marriage!!! who wont take a free pass when he sees it? Nigerian women always jump over you when they know you just traveled into Nigeria, and along the way the dummy gets preggy? what do you do? you make her all sorts of promises that you will marry her, take her abroad , nlah blah blah, all so her broke arse doesn't bug your foreign cell phone with calls. And the dummy believes that you would actually leave your home in a first world country to marry a back water uncivilized liability? all because she is from Nigeria? hahhahahahhahahahahah
So does that answer your question?

justifying evil isn't the way forward. man was not created to act like a he-goat. imorality of any sort shud be condemn - whether it comes from a man or a woman. and also beware that a day of judgement is coming. so u can't just do all sort of evil and think I'll get away with. as for the ladies who will engage in s e x b4 marriage get ready for the consequences. don't blame the man but blame itself for such foolishness.

Bollinger:
You are funny. You think if the societal structure in Nigeria was normal the divorce rate wouldn't be ten times higher than what exists in America? No one wants to be treated like slaves and Nigerian women are basically treated as such. The reason they are afraid to leave their husbands in Nigeria is because of the economic and legal realities that exist in the country. Both factors do not favor them. They know how difficult it would be to survive without the surpport of their husband especially when kids are involved. To make matters worse, the legal system does not favor them. A man can wake up one morning and chase his wife out of their matrimonial home and bring in someone else that same day and nothing will happen. Come and try that shiit over here. The reason the divorce rate in Nigeria is so low is because of fear on the part of women. It is that simple.

2 wrongs cannot make a right. God made man the head, oyibo says no that they are equal. how can 2 captain be on a ship? if men are treating women unfairly, the right law to make shud not be extreme ones that will favor one party.

Rung:
Click "Strum" on this page http://chords.tv/sinach-i-know-who-i-am-chords/
It will show strumming pattern.

tnks very much. I'll check it out. @anonimus, tnks for that brilliant idea.

An0nimus:

An0nimus:
Ok, This is what I got for Sinach's 'Chosen generation'.

Key C Pretty simple this one, hope it's what you're looking for.

F......................C
We are a chosen generation
G............................................Dm Em

This is basic but should cover the song. The babas can add the string gymnastics

I used the 5th and 6th root notes to arrive at the above. To get the chords on other keys, you'll have to transpose.

Edit: Don't mind the dots, NL doesn't allow for much spacing between texts.

pls can u explain more? what is the strumming pattern to use or is it solo.

Beboy23:
U can spray the both together and you spray two weeks before harvesting, u avoid leaving residual effect on the fruit, u can also read user instruction on the insecticide container

since they are harvested very 4-5 days, does that mean spraying shud STP during harvest time.
