Yungbrym:

just have a good fungicide ready because of damping off, immediately after germination it will strike,if you see them falling down just reduce the irrigation frequency or skip a day and spray with fungicide like zforce it works.

Where can I get this Z FORCE and how much does cost?

Psalmy2cute:
100 naira for 0.25g

N100 for 25g.

Epsom salt as a foliar spray or soil additive will help tomato and pepper plants grow and produce larger, tastier yields.

Late in the season use an Epsom salt spray to increase tomato and pepper yield and keep plants green and bushy; early in the season add Epsom salt to the soil to aid germination, early root and cell development, photosynthesis, plant growth, and to prevent blossom-end rot.

Epsom salt is not actually salt but a natural mineral compound of about 10 percent magnesium and about 13 percent sulfur—often referred to as magnesium-sulfate. Epsom salt is highly soluble and easily taken in by plants when combined with water and sprayed on leaves. As a soil additive, Epsom salt becomes soluble with soil moisture and is drawn up into plants through the roots.

A magnesium or sulfur deficiency in the soil can cause tomato and pepper plants to grow small and spindly, leaves to yellow between leaf veins late in the season, and fruit to be slow in maturing and ripening.

Where can I get this Epsom salt?

Epsom salts available in 25kg

How much is it?

okoroemeka:
open pollinated varieties are seeds from crops that can be saved and replanted from generation to generation and will still retain it's characteristics,unlike seeds from hybrid plant that may not be exact like their parents if their seeds are saved and replanted,we have once saved a yellow hybrid maize and planted next year it turned to white local maize,so essentially opv and heirlooms may mean the same thing,seeds that are non hybrid.

Thank you so very much. I appreciate your detailed explanation

about 1 to 2 bags maximum.. but why plant just 500 bags .. if you have just a plot of land .. you can squeeze in upto 800 stands. Even 1k plants is possible.. but management will be difficult.. as the plant branches will tangle with each other..

Tip: if you're planting upto 1k make sure you plant opv seeds

Good day honourable members. Please, what is the full meaning of OPV mentioned above
Thanks

Can you please list the items in that picture? Thanks

@Okoroemeka. Somewhere in this thread, you recommended pig dung or so for nursery and discouraged poultry waste. What about cow dung? Can it be used?

ogbongenet:
Today another nairalander visited my farm today again and bought 500stands of my pepper seedling..

I am a new member in this forum. I have been enjoying the conversation here for some days now. I will soon be a retiree. What about security of the pepper. Because it will be very expensive to fence one or two acres of land
