@ jethro. What time is d right time to apply fertilizer on cucumber. I read ppl talk about staking, did u stake ur cucumber?

I applied NPK 2 weeks after planting. I also applied liquid fertilizer when its start flowering between 4 _ 5 weeks. Fertilizer application time varies for varieties. Soil fertility is one of the factors to be considered.
Yes I have read and heard it too. I didn't stake this present one but planning to stake for next cucumber planting

My brother it didn't work. I lost the few cucumber I tested it on.

Sorry about your cucumber. Thanks for sharing. I have earlier read that there id no selective pesticide for vegetables. The practical confirms it. It has to be manual weeding

Thanks man... Looking forward 2 d yield analysis, and your staking procedures. I want to compare d yield of this murano spp with my species over here which have still no flowers after three weeks and some days. Very dumb species. I go soon port lol...

You are highly welcome. Seed alone can not determine the growth rate. The soil type, pest and insects in the environment, fertilizer application, water application are some of the factors that also affects the germination rate of your crop. The Murano is fast but i m thinking the size should be bigger than that. When the other varieties are out , i will be able to compare.

Thanks in anticipation.

@jethro bravo, good thread, good job

Thank you

Thanks for this. I use "espected to mature". I have learnt not to affirm anything in agric until proven otherwise. I am a pratical person

world1:
Oga Jethro.
Am sorry o. I don't intend to condemned your post.
I sell the east west seed and I can authoritatively tell you that it matures at 6 months not 3months. But if you doubt me then plant it and let wait and see.

@jeffmyson. Personally, I can testify to the price of soyabeans. It is correct. Price of tomatoes fluctuates a lot in production areas so you have to take that into consideration. All things said, I think Jethro is doing a great job with this thread.

Thank you
