Good day Ma. Please, I'll like to know. For the Tokyo/greengo, will one have to face pollination problem, and have to resort to hand pollination?

No need for hand pollination with open field planting

scorpio1:


Where and how can I get this plastic? And when is the right time to apply it, when the seeds germinate or before?

Contact 08025171575 for the mulch.
It's applied before planting

agricexport:
Are you sure of these prices stated above? Am 100percent sure that the prices are not realistic compare to the current sales of garri,cassava chips and other cassava by- products.

Please check the date the post was made

Yampotatocarrot:


Please, what's the likely harvest period for Tokyo and Greengo?

Both are between 40-45 days

Thanks for this. Pointsett n Marketer are a no no for me, though someone said they have better resistance or so.

Hello Madam,

Pls, I want to buy original honey from Ago-Imodu. You posted the price b4. Is it still available?

The price have changed since when I post it on Nairaland.

Currently 25 litre sells for N35,000

Mrkellz:


Thanks

You are welcome

Mrkellz:


Thanks a lot. Pls can you recommend any suitable Asian variety that would do well in a place like Benin city?
Also I don't know if its actually waterlogged. I'll put up a picture

I will suggest you buy smaller samples of each to test. With that you can decide which best suit your area.

What work in Asaba might not work in Onitsha

Yampotatocarrot:
Please, any cucumber farmer in Lagos, should indicate. I'll like to know which sells in Lagos, cos price of murano is kinda on the high side.

Pointsett and marketer have low price just like they have low yield and longer days to maturity

Murano, tokyo, Greengo, monalisa are expensive just like they produce more when taken care of and they mature in shorter days.

Those are recommended for Lagos market

lahify:
@jethro2 please what is the average number of bags to be expected from an acre of cucumber farm?

With our raised bed system we have been having 5 bags per bed.

An acre has 80 bed with our kind of measurements.

However several things need to be put into consideration
* Manure application
* Plant population at planting
* Water management
* Pest and disease control
* Staking and training
* Prunning etc

It's only when you get all this right that you can attain that average no of yield

Mrkellz:

Pls how much is this plastic mulch?

Please contact 08025171575
He is the seller

scorpio1:


How do you manage to use plastic mulch in this our weather?
Please let me know about mulching, will plant next week but I read somewhere that it's not suitable cos of the heat now.

The mulching usually retain water at the root of the plant. We have not had any issue with heat.

We have been using mulching for quite some time now for all of our crops.

Ken4agent:
Nice job i must say

Thank you sir

Yampotatocarrot:


Madam, the Madam.

I never knew you had plunged into cucumbers also. Came across your work during your tomatoes writeup era.

Neat farm you got there. But I observed the packaging looked kinda smaller than the normal ones I know, as in, the half cut sack wasn't added to the top. Is that the acceptable package in your area?

Do u bring it down to Mile 12 dilaalis, or your customers do farm pickups?

And, what variety is this? Seems smaller than the fruits of Cu999

Its nice having you here

Yes. That's the package for our side here. The yellow big bag command more price than the blue pack. N300 - N500 difference.

We sell in Saki, Ibadan and our area.

Tokyo f1.
CU 999 is not a market favourite in our area.

Thank you sir

okoroemeka:
