emmybiz: Please, I stays in Anambra and I really need to go into cucumber farming,but my problem is that the land I intend to use for this purpose has no any form of irrigation or nearby stream. Can i use such land for cucumber farming? Sure you can. During rainy season and or wen you sink a borehole |

Pavore9: Since you are in Lagos, you need to visit the Mile 12 market to see how things goes, there is a market somewhere under Falomo Bridge (Victoria Island side). Prices of Veggies for Salad have always on the high side across Southern part of the country because of the produce is coming from the North.
Personally, l will likely add shops in upscale neighbourhoods that sells them in my market research. It alright my bro. I observed that your concerned on every thread is on market and marketing |

Celebrities › The Most Used Picture On Nairaland by jephito(op): 11:30am On Aug 29, 2016 |
This particular picture of Jacob Zuma is mostly used on Nairaland's box to liken two things. You most find it with captions such as "APC and lies be like", "PDP and corruption are like", "Ladies and money", "Nairaland and snake thread", and so on.
You will find it in almost all the threads that make to the Front Page. How will South Africans react to this should they see it?

Two cans of Tokyo F1 was not enough, so I took like 20g from the third can to complete the farm.
Apart from this 1½ plots, I am doing another one plot elsewhere but will not give it trellis. The remaining 30g left could not finish it and I didn't budget for another can. So I opted for another variety to complete the planting.
I bought 2 sachets @1k3/sachet

I planted today. Day 1 of the journey Pic 1: That's the left over of the manure I used the last time. It's not much at all
Pic 2: That's the bed with manure on it. I do on the spot (where I will plant the seed) application.
Pic 3: That's how we apply the compost manure.
Normally, I usually apply my compost manure prior (not more than 3dys) to the day I want to plant so that I can identify the spot I placed the manure. But I delayed this one to the same day cos it's not much.

In all fairness, GEJ did very well for this country than we are witnessing under this present administration. Under this administration, elections are now inconclusive, FOREX has increased, etc. Let me take you all back to pre 2015 presidential election. There was this prayer point then "May God run your life the way GEJ runs Nigeria."
Now, let me share my own prayer points so you can choose which to say AMEN to. 1. May you be clueless like GEJ ruled Nigeria. 2. May you be clueless like PMB is ruling Nigeria.
