Lettuce would be a nice try if your soil supports it as harvest is within 2 months and gets higher price than green and shoko.

Thanks pavour

huuuumm

l need tractor in ldo LG. Pls help

Any link to tractor rental service ? pls my people

I need tractor for my next production. please help

Let me quickly say this. Quiters never win. Continuation pays. it will give you an edge. l completed soil preparation and sowing of my backyard farm in less than an hour (removing debris from former production, little weeding, redressing the beds, and sowing).
This season 2, we are growing hybrid cucumber from Seminis (a seed company from US). DARINA MIX is the specie.
Pictures

seeing this for the first time................. i will be back

This my okra plant .........unable to upload pics. Yes, only sandy soil with highly raised beds can sustain watermelon and cucumber for this period.

freelife4all:
Nice job bro, thanks for your courage, i plant some cucumber seed in one of my farm but non of cucumber was able to gaminat.

l take you laaaaaaf bro. I also planted a plot (about 15 * 35m) of watermelon on 29th of May. l also planted a 5gram MURANO cucumber beside it same day. they all germinated but killed by excess rainfall. Am now using the plot for OKRA (Ila). lt may be excess rain if order things remain accurate. use the land for something else for now.

Neduzze5:
It could be birds. That's the reason why you should try to plant it a little deep in the soil

Pls dont sow your seeds deeper than 1 inch. Or else you ruin their life from begining. It may germinate, but with much effort. this will lead to sick or poor plant.

sheyi86:
gud morning sir, i planted anoda set of cucumber 4days ago but on getting dia smtin has eaten up most of d seeds in d soil sir wot kind of animal could cause dat damage sir.

Birds or lizards. hold on to this TIP: pick every seeds that dropped on farm. if you dont,lizards and birds will eat and search for more. tnx

Soloxam:

Soloxam:
Am sure you can read the above comment of yours and understand it, I know your type... But just be mindful the way you says thing... Peace....Am sure you can read the above comment of yours and understand it, I know your type... But just be mindful the way you says thing...
Also tell me whom madam Jethro was referring to?
Pls try and read btw lines b4 coming to conclution, I would have not quoted you if I wasn't involved...... In the subject matter...... Even Pavore mention Technisem in His comment......... Then why don't you clarify ur point...?
Pls be careful of ur altrance.......

Mr Sam, you know me now. l dont disrespect. check all my post, l dont fight at all. l mean the seed producer, not you suppliers. Let me tell you this. l asked a supplier of maturity days of an hybrid cucumber presented to me, the one said 68 days. can you imagine that ! So, dont personalise issues again. this is social forum. Anyway, am sorry.

unable to upload pix. Let me quickly add this. Failure is not my portion. I never need you on my farm. Why should i invite you when things are in order?! One more point, am not here to soil anybody's reputation. pls turn down your ego.

Hybrid cucumber frm Seminis

@Soloxam again, let me tell you am using seeds from different seed companies bought from different distributors. even technisem seeds, you are not the only supplier i buy from. am using Monarch seeds. am using Seminis seeds,...... etc. i hav pictures on my phone to butress my point. why do you always personalise issues ? enough pls !

Soloxam:
@ Olamimo, this is the second time am replying you on this forum base on your irrelevant and base less point. Pls find out things before you say it out. Several farmers will testify to what am saying, I personally have visited and stay days in many peoples farms just to put them right, how will you expect me to come to ur farm or render an assistance if am not invited, you personally, several time I have attended to you on watsapp, but you know what I stop answering your question when I found out they are irrelevant also some other people who feel they can just be asking or play over my intelligent.
We are not God but we have play a vital roles in the lifes of many farmers including you...... I heard my colleague attending to you on watsapp sometime ago but am surprise to see you writing this here.......
Pls mind what u put down here on this kind of forum.....
Peace........

Look Soloxam, you take things too hard. are you the only distributor of vegetable seed in ibadan? are you the only one am dealing with ? have i ever mentioned your name or your company in any of my previous post in bad form? pls be careful. dont put your finger into my mouth. or else........ you regret you do

Great vegetable farmers in the house....... couple of weeks ago, I started a thread about backyard cucumber. l learnt alot practically. l thank God, l was able to impact intending farmers in many ways. Glory be to Almighty God. This season 2 of backyard cucumber is still an inch on my learning curve. It promises to be fascinating. l hav learnt alot during my first foray. This season 2 will show some expertise and well blended touches. Pls stay following......

@OLAMIMO dont 4get 2 answer my questions o.

whatsapp

jethro2:
They do provide. They even have a field expert that guides on their crops. You can also invite them to your farm for visits.
How many people call them?

Look my Sister, we only know the distributors of those seed companies. We dont have a SURE access to them. Mind you, the distributors have no time for any other business than selling.

Harvest time

2ru9jaman:
Is there any contact that one can get the seeds in lagos/sango axis please and what is the cost of 500g of tecnisen brand seed

sorry for late response. i have no knowledge of that. i can send to you, ONLY if you wish.

noblefarm:
tnx sir. pls which variety of tomato is advisable to plant?

Difficult to answer. Many successful tomato guru tried many varieties before they arrived. Many factors will come to play before one make a reasonable decision on that. Different practice favour different variety. So also the climate. Others will tel more
