Psalm4kute:
Pls help o, my pepper nursery aren't doing well, they're two weeks old today and it's as if theyve stopped germinating, they're exactly thesame the past time I checked them, which was early this week, (monday) to be precise

The leaves are facing down, and they're looking very week,

When you bought this nursery crate then if I told you not to use it, it will seems I don't know what I'm saying

If you're not careful you will lost this nursery again. I've lost 50grams of Etna, 10gram of padma, 5gram of loleza etc to nursery mismanagement and I'm still learning. I almost lost 10grams of espartano yellow sweet pepper to dry manure applications. Lot of experience in nursery management.

Insight: put another shade net on top of that nursery because we are in dry season and intense heat will destroy your nursery in that nursery crate. I had 20 nursery crate abandon. Protected Raised bed nursery its okay by me, thanks.

Psalm4kute:
Started afresh today mixed my cocopeat with dry cow manure ... and the nursery will be outdoor this time around

Ten nursery trays for today, another 15 trays will be added by this time next week

This is a experience I'll never forget, like play, 12k worth of pepper seeds enter voice mail...

Psalm4kute:
I'm confident all of this were sufficient for the nursery.. I just dont know where I went wrong

anything outside this, I can't relate

Psalm4kute:
At this stage, I'm more than willing to toss them away, but before I do, I'd like to know what happened to the nursery..

Things plant needs:
Light (sunlight)
Optimum ventilation
Moist planting medium
Optimum temperature too

Appropriate nutrient too


Bro, nursery management its a 5 unit course on its own alone.

Both are good bro, but you need to know what your market needs . Open market preference after rodo is bawa

ANOCETS:
Thanks to everyone who has contributed.
Now that things are at cross road what is the way out for farmers ...especially southwest (Osun, Ogun, Oyo)..

Please I also need recommendation on
Sombo and tattasai


CC okoroemeka , emmaachile cocoboms , FMCASH , Pistotita , and others

Psalm4kute:
Pls sir, I'd like you to help me identify.. what type of pepper is this?? Rodo or tatashe

that's rodo, Etna f1. They grow bigger because they have access to more nutrient.

Psalm4kute:
Is this tatashe or rodo?? I.e etna f1

that's pumpkin sir, can replace tomato in soup

okoroemeka:
go for Efia,

if its south west, efia its not ideal for raining season

ideepaul:
pls sir could u throw more light on this nd d reasoning behind ur assertion

germination sometimes are 50/50

Squash

Only buy expensive seed with your spare cash,

ideepaul:
for the trial i was planning 2 do on avenir, i changed my mind due to reported germination issues. as emmaachile recommended, i contacted a major rz zwaan seed seller some days ago abt their hybrid habanero seeds, he recommended loleza f1 and lengai! pls anyone with practical experience on d pro and con of rainy season cultivation of these varieties should help 'the boy'. I nor wan play unnecessary bet9ja with my money abeg! cc emmaachile, okoroemeka, pistotita, funsoul, fmcash, wizs2019 , ogbongenet

potosky:

No, avenir its from green to red

ideepaul:
I just hope I am not bothering u with 2 many questions! but i went 2 a nearby market I intend 2 sell d produce 2 and discussed wt d market women, they were all surprised 2 hear abt fresh chillies! dried chillies nd fresh habanero are d popular options here. pls could u explain hw u market them

I sell to mile 12. Your local market will prefer ripe ones

Olaleyeabdullah:

#4000 for 5 grams

ANOCETS:
What is the yield like?
Shed more light please

ANOCETS:

yes

austinomd:
But why are you harvesting them green, I thought they are harvested when ripe?

there market for the green too as well.

ideepaul:

any reasons apart from disease vulnerability why u feel he should prefer chilli?

fresh, easy to manage and continuous cash flow

I'm currently nursing angel f1 from technisem to compare demon f1

Boss, Demon f1 can fruits for how many month continuously without break? Hadiza said it can produce for 3 year or until I'm tired of harvest

Weldone sir

Pistotita:
Intuition, the most powerful tool in you
If you observe my posts, I always keep away from making decisions for people. Why? I want you to make the decision yourself; unfortunately, many want to take robotic commands.

Do pilots instead of taking robotic commands
In regards to veggie, you can ask for opinions on NL. But at the end, you need to make a decision. This is where intuition comes in. What is your inner mind telling you to do? It is unfortunate many have killed their inner minds. They do not know how to listen to themselves. In fact, too much noise goes behind the scene in the lives of many. At times, you just want to push things, but you must have signals that should guide you. Know when to stop. Learn to listen to every tick the seconds hand of your mind's clock ticks.

I understand almost every agricultural person here look forward to read my posts. Well, yours truly really appreciate it. But the truth may be packaged in an unpleasant box many times. That truth, I must still deliver through my posts.

Whatever you sow, you will reap
This is a truth I am grateful has been deposited in me since I was a toddler. We seem to easily forget this truth, but the truth will always be the truth. You know that I can go on hours of debate if I still have a benefit of doubt. Or even years......I may endure. But the moment I get the signal, I am just a person who involuntarily moves away.

If you truly want to achieve unimaginable success, you just must try new things. I read the recent article of Ovation chief editor, Dele Momodu about his opinion on the aspiration of Asiwaju Ahmed Bola Tinubu in regards to becoming the next Nigerian president, and I was so impressed with his analysis. Yeah! Dele is very right. Only intuitive people understand it. But the truth is: nobody knows the mind of Asiwaju. And that is a characteristic of a true leader. No one knew he was going to support Buhari until the last minute. No one knew he was going to choose Osinbajo as the VP until the last minute. And Ambode got the shock of his life the very last minute. Though, I supported Ambode that time. Lol. This same way, no one will ever know his mind until the very last minute. That is a man of strong intuition. Without him, Buhari is zero. Read my words again, without Tinubu, Buhari is nothing. Even Buhari was afraid of him, and did not know his mind till the very last minute that he stepped face to face with him in Aso Rock villa before telling him that he would be his rock again. Many words arent the mind of most people.

Get on a very good pilot. I always tell people...if you want to know if greenhouse is profitable or not, get the cultivar and try it at your backyard. Just be patient. The seeds may be expensive, but close your eyes, buy, and try them.

Patience is the KEY
You must be able to have patient for 30 days before you transplant just 10 to 20 plants. Then wait patiently for 70 - 90 days just before tomato plants or pepper start producing fruits. In addition, you get your apparatus and start recording details of your pilot. How long is the harvest? The harvest may be 9 months, but the answer you are looking for might be gotten during the first week of harvest, or after rounds of harvest. Can you be patient enough for 3 - 6 months to get the answer you are looking for instead of looking for robotic commands on NL?

You have to decide what you want to do. If you can last long under the sun, good. That is you. You are a camel and I am happy for you. But if you are not, and you forcefully do open field on a large area of land, you are planning and excellently executing your failure.

Reading Reviews
I do it many times. You are going with the majority. But know fully well that the road to huge success is a lonely road. Let your instinct tell you the way forward. When you want to decide which brand of seed to use, let your inner mind lead you. And then, confirm it with a very good pilot.

You do not necessarily need to do what I do. This is why I teach concepts and not robotic commands. This is why I dont write chemicals on public forums, it is the reason I dont even make seed recommendations. I avoided it in my old posts, but I decided to release some here because the request was getting too much, and it started to look like I was not ready to open up. Well, no matter the depth of secrets you release, no matter the quality of info you give out, those who will gain zero are still going to be the majority.

Learn Veggie very well
You cannot be poor, or lack if you know veggie. In fact, you will never understand why some still wear rope on their necks and put on jacket in this hot sun going to work 8am - 6pm, 5 days in a week. You may not be extremely rich, but the confidence will always be there that you are not going to suffer. No matter how bad Nigeria is, you will be able to take care of your family. You are producing food. Let inflation be 100%, people will still eat.

Psalmy2cute:
I got 2 5g pack at 5k each

why are this retailers milking you like this, 5g etna its not more than 2,200, 50grams @16,200.

Bro stay away from habanero, I can feel your imagination of getting rich quick from it.

Try chili pepper easy to manage and the market price its of same range with habanero during peak.

Chili pepper available

We can nurse avenir f1 seedling based on request. Germination rate will determine seedling price, range from #30 to #70.

Notion: when buying hybrid seed make sure you buy from dealer that store seed with cool temperature. If you are buying seed directly from Agritropic (techinesm), always revert to them when you have challenges. The company is friendly and have good customer services.

Psalmy2cute:
So this means 10000 pepper plants could fit into 1 acre?
Because I believe the guy above was referring to pepper plant
