pepper plant fruiting,we got a ripe one yesterday and it's slowly coming because of the cold rainy season,we are waiting for the weather to warm up before the next phase,the crops in the pics below was not topped or pruned,but we topped the second phase to compare yield.

Lovely...
I always look forward to your posts. Expert farmers here always motivate me. I'm going into pepper farming fully next yr.at least 10 plots of 100x100. For now I wanna do a nursery and test different species.
I will keep shadowing you all here and hopefully visit one of ur farms soon.
Pls how often do u harvest now? cuz u said it's coming in slowly.
Also have u tested d effects of fish pond waste water on pepper? Cuz I just discovered a fish pond and they just discard it,even stinks up d area.

okoroemeka:

Thanks for the info.

They start production at 3 months and produce for about 3months I heard.dunno cuz mine are still producing.

Pls does anyone know what month pepper prices drop?

austinomd:
Good Day, nice pictures, what varieties of Okro are the mature ones you have in the pictures, are they hybrid or local, did you plant your okro directly on the bed or you did a nursery first

Dunno d name.just bought from the market.think it's up to 3 different varieties, they're the 3 months type.
I planted directly.as long as it has full sun and adequate water, it'll grow quickly
