This year has been so hectic... But we are seeing results. Pepper really is wonderful.

Anyone planting shombo here?

shariff84:
110k,Kontagora Niger state is the location.

Thanks.

ogbongenet:
Nihort is not producing seed,they only extract seeds from pepper they planted which means it's an opv seeds which you can get from your local market.

Hey boss... Any idea where i can get angel f1 or demon f1? Any idea which is more disease resistant?

Go to lagos street, where they sell agricultural inputs, ask of Alfred, a short fat dark man, if he doesn't have it, ask of Uwaifoh, An average Height man who loves to introduce new product to his costumers.
each would have it.
if both doesn't go to farmers house at 2nd traffic light, sapkonba road.

Thanks a lot. I'll check sokponkba. Most Stores around ring road are closed.

Psalmy2cute:

This is just beautiful. Keep up the good work.
Please can you give me the contact of your seed supplier?

okoroemeka:
California wonder is heirloom or opv and is produced by many seed companies,so it depends on the one you want.tatase from nihort is available,for cabbages that will be tricky,I have a friend that planted Olsen seed Gloria cabbage and it worked like a charm,if you can find that use it.

My question is who can i can get them from here on NL because I've searched my city but nothing.

okoroemeka:
what type of seed do you want?

California wonder
Tatase
Heat and split resistant cabbage.

Please do you have experience with California wonder?

okoroemeka:
many farmers I know are pulling back on planting this trying period for reasons that are quite obvious panic, recession, etc ,caused by the global health crisis but whatever happens the economics of supply and demand will always manifest because by the time the produce that supposed to be planted now are to be harvested there will be a sharp drop in supply due to less crops were planted during the health crisis and the demand and prices may go up,but the Outlook is not so Rosy in the long run considering the low prices of oil,but it is obvious that the aftershocks of the low oil prices will strike but not immediately maybe in 3-5 months,by then any farmer that is brave and crazy enough to do a large scale operation this time will cash out.

I believe prices will shoot up... Nigeria cannot lock down because people will die... People will rather be sick than die. Im facing my farming head on boss. I believe foodstuff over fruits will sell, except more generally accepted and cheaper Fruits. Pls can you help me with a reputable seed seller's contact? Thanks.

Mrkellz:
Have you personally tried any variety?

Do you have any reputable seed seller?

healthserve:
Any. I just want to do a pilot learning program with pepper. Pepper has always caught my attetion

That's cool.
Cayenne and chilli peppers are more rugged than the normal fresh pepper. Although I've noticed as the new rains come some of the dried pepper plants with infections are showing no signs of infection. At least for now. I think most Serious pepper infections (not necessarily diseases) are soil borne.

healthserve:
Just setting out to actually

What variety?

I always keep learning when i visit this thread. God bless the op.

1.Please has anyone here tested any bell pepper variety?
2.Please can you share your experiences and what month is best for its cultivation based on pests and heavy rainfall not water availability.
3.Also can anyone recommend an open pollinated papaya variety?

Any reply is much appreciated

healthserve:
Really. I'm going to learn from you cause I think local pepper and tomato cultivation has always been a fantasy of mine

Have you personally tried any variety?

Do you have a buisexual opv? I think the size of the fruits for the hybrids are too big for the market in my area.

ogbongenet:
The one i bought has d following xteristics: Name:Rana(Technissem). Plant:Dwarf. fruit:oblong shape.
fruit weight:900 to 1000g. Colour:red orange.
Resistance:very good tolerance to PRSV.
Havesting:7 to 8month.

Are they still available?

Adamma91:
I know because we already planted but I want to have an idea and cost effective irrigation system come next dry season planting, for this season we will manage the hose. I want to know so I be fully prepared come next season, not carrying hose up and down though we have small sprinkler we use now but it is time consuming.

I commend your great efforts. Its a nice venture.
How is your fertilizing routine like and have you encountered any signs of disease?
Also whats the spray diameter of the sprinkler?

Such a lovely thread. Its really simple and wonderful. Infact, its a gift to farmers. Keep it up @op

healthserve:
Nice. Sorry how did you source your pepper seeds?

I sourced from the open market. I've done that twice and they did good. I think feeding is what matters most. I once saw a friends plamt producing up to 15 at once with about 5 ripe fruits but that waw a virgin land. I'll upload pics tomorrow. I thought i snapped it but it was the cayenne i snapped.

So far I've not been able to get an accurate test cuz of being stretched too far. But i did a few and transplanted at 2months, didnt care much for the seedlings but after transplanting im seeing production at 5 weeks, flowering was less than 2 weeks ago.
Pics to follow

healthserve:
Nice one.

Thanks
