okoroemeka: the success of a cucumber farm in the middle of a dry harmattan season starts from the seed,it is now obvious that Tokyo is not meant for the dry season,also the issue of curved fruits are more prevalent during dry season,WHY?dry season comes with high population of crazy insects that cannot survive during rainy season and in turn the poor frustrated farmer will fire up his knapsack to blast them away with a concoction of different insecticides,which creates another problem,the dry season with bush burning and inhospitable environment has reduced the population of benefical insects and the farmer on a quest to rid his farm of whiteflys and leafminers kills off most of the few remaining beneficial insects causing poor pollination and bent fruits ,for you to recover anything from that farm,first remove all infected yellow leafs and dispose properly,look for ridomil gold copper or redforce mix with foliar fertilizer and spray,forget about insecticide and white fly you can't win the battle,apply npk 201010 with urea and irrigate well,if you are using hose apply manure also because the hose pressure will leach away the npk in no time,spray every 4-5 days if possible to clear away the infection.
Great
But I've planted Tokyo f1 @technisem® at dry season and it's successful
Psalmy2cute: Npk 15.15.15 has been banned??.. this is news to me, Besides at this fruiting stage, you dont need npk.. next time go for foliar fertiliser, e.g DIgrow, maxiforce etc
Foliar Fertilizer are just appetizer not real food.
Structural fertilizer must be used for better result, weekly
FarmTech: . In liquid form. . I saw how grassy ur farm is and I suggest u use paraquat to control weeds between rows and then for those weeds close to plants, use hand. . For ur staking. What did u use to support the net? Remember that when cukes start developing they will have a lot of weight.
