Nezzjnr:
Please how many was in a bag

Nezzjnr:
You mean 13 per plant

Is it jorad?

Nezzjnr:
The average per plant is always 5...some get 8

Lots of female flowers on my jorad. No sign of male yet. Anyone has experience planting jorad cucumber here?

Farmerakinloye6:

k tnx...using foliar for mine. Following closely. Mine are 8 days today, jorad

Farmerakinloye6:
The video on how I apply fertilizer and stake is now available. Price of cucumber here is 5500-6500 at the moment. I mistakenly bought 20:10:10 thinking I bought 15:15:15 because
15:15:15 was written on The bag. I had to apply common sense to apply it if not , Las Las I still loose few stand.

will u be using Haifa bonus or u have used npk to replace it

A trusted brand...nice doing business with you. Got some agro input from her and it was delivered without issue, even when I had to send the payment in part. Thanks so much

Farmerakinloye6:
Nineteen days after.

Has anyone here used cow dung soaked in water as foliar spray for cukes? I used it and d result was awesome

Farmerakinloye6:

Any update on the price of cucumber

Farmerakinloye6:
5-6k at the moment in akure. If it green and big,it 6k.

boss how did you measure the size of your land

What is the latest price of cucumber

safarifarms:
As per your planting date you should start harvesting.

started harvesting but couldn't get a bag from my 300 stand as not all started fruiting at the same time. Thinking of selling in bits. Like what quantinty of it full a bag sir. Thinking of selling mine for each #60 since I couldn't get up to a bag

safarifarms:
That's the length but they normally get much thicker than that. However the color of the lower part seems to be yellowish. If that's the case that will mean it's already ripening o.

I planted it 21 December. Should I leave it a little longer.some other ones there

Farmerakinloye6:
I was in market this morning and there is no cucumber. The agent was telling me the price is 6k now, I just told him 5k is good, and before I open and close my eye all the bag I took finished,they rushed it.

boss any update on cucumber price

safarifarms:
That's the length but they normally get much thicker than that. However the color of the lower part seems to be yellowish. If that's the case that will mean it's already ripening o.

yellow ke!

safarifarms:
They are reasonably big. As big or possibly bigger than Saira. But not as big/long as cu999.

I got this...I guess it can still grow bigger

safarifarms:
In my experience with the cucs I've planted male flowers usually show up first to signal pollinators to include the route to their flight schedule so that when the female flowers show up pollinators are already abundantly available.

the nandini is it also medium sized?

okoroemeka:
If you look at the nutrients chart you will agree with me that wood Ash will be beneficial to a heavy feeder like cucumbers,we have already mixed wood Ash from a nearby oil mill into the manure we will apply tomorrow on our crops and see what will happen

what was experience using wood ash on cucumber like sir

ideepaul:
around 4 weeks +/- 28 days

sorry boss I have come again...the nandini started flowering yesterday. Lots of male flowers. I couldn't see any female. So, my question is that is that how the flowering pattern is?

Omonaijani:
Hello, dear Cucumber Growers, can anyone tell if Seminis Darina will be bitter this dry season? I want to try it because I can't get greengo, the Murano I planted appears to be highly succeptable to downy middew and the CU99 and Nandini I planted are tasting bitter, please help

u planted in sack right and u also make use of chicken dung. I have seen post here saying chicken dung is not ideal for sack cos of the heat it generate. Well, I planted nandini too hoping it won't be bitter. Planted on land tor

ideepaul:
during the dry season, 7 days is enough and @ 3days interval for the rainy season...but is the weather really dry these days?

not so dry...

ideepaul:
Argh! This is a technical question...are you asking for recommended standard or the way we use it here in Nigeria?

the way we use it here. I am using it at an interval of 7 days so thinking maybe that s too long

ideepaul:
funguforce and saaf are just the same chemicals with different brand names (mancozeb 63% carbendazim 12%). funguforce gold and ridomil gold are made up of mancozeb and metataxyl, though they are a lil bit more expensive. if I were you, I would buy that cabrio, use it once and then alternate with the other fungicides, both mancozeb and copper based if the infection is not at the stage of NO NEED! cabrio has a better systemic action, and as such will help manage the issue better than funguforce and saaf, then you prune the affected leaves if you can.

please how often should one use saaf
