Let me share a picture for you to know how I apply mine using drip... Then applying it without drip

It's even more better to spray those Magnesium Sulphate... Potassium Nitrate and Calcium Nitrate.

Spray Calcium Nitrate and Potassium Nitrate from Day 7 till final harvest... 5 Tablespoon per 16l knapsack... Start magnesium Sulphate from week 3.

Then for side placing... Continue with your Npk.... Urea... Mop.

Ssp comes in when applying your manure... Spray it ontop the manure... Then Cover it and leave for 4 days before planting... Water before planting and after planting.

Those calcium Nitrate... Magnesium Sulphate... Potassium Nitrate actually helps in more yields... Limited fruit abortion.... Bigger and attractive fruits.

Amino acids should be sprayed during the dry season and it should be a weekly spray.....

As for the prices.... I can't state it because it goes up and comes down... Best thing na to buy in bulk during dry season because we have few farmers planting cucumbers den so the price will be very low and there will be lesser demand.

Sorry for the late response Boss... Been so busy.

Thanks for this. Pls, I need a clarification. Imagine am using only potassium nitrate and npk 15-15-15. What should be the mixing rate for 1000 plants, and on how many litres of water? Thanks

Thanks for the response boss. Its going to be my first experience with using venturi and mañure tea. The manure I intend to fertigate with is rabbit manure. And I have already loaded the manure into.a drum and mixed with water..

Does this mean after seiving out the manure tea I still havw to.mix it at the said ration of 4: 1 or I can juat send the directly throught the venturi?

I use fresh chicken manure, I put inside sack, about 50kg, tightly tied and soak in water (200L) inside drum. After two weeks, I remove and dispose the sack, then strain the liquid and get my manure tea. I don't use raw, i dilute with water, 1 part manure tea and 4 part water

bassey25:
Please experts in the house. How often can one cucumber with manure tea? I already bought my venturi and have access to wet poultry liter.

My plant population is 3,000 stands. Also, can I use only manure tea though out the growth circle?

What is the mixing ratio of your manure tea with water? I use 1:4 and apply once a week for my cabbage

Fishing Net Needed


Please indicate if you sell fishing nets.

Thank you

Go to ogunpa, Lebanon street. Around GIWA ADINNI, ask of ORITOKE SHOP. She sells different types. She can also make it for you based on your specification..

I dunno why NFf has never given Gbenga ogunbote any coaching role. The man is very good, he is currently doing well at 3sc. He did a very good job at demo and sunshine. I am happy about the new generation of coaches coming up at the local scenes. At least it will give room to replace the old ones that are not productive

Ogunbote has never won anything as a coach. He almost relegated sunshine ( played 18 consecutive games without a win) before he was sacked and Deji Ayeni came to the rescue.

Normally it is 400L of water per ha. So 3ml in 8L water or 6ml in 15L. Try this and see if there is need to increase to 10ml.

Thank you. I used 7.5ml and applied yesterday. Even with the fact that it rained early this morning, it was effective.

ideepaul:
0.15L per hectare is dependent on the crop type and disease pressure
Qty of water to use per hectare also depends on the type of sprayer used and is btw 60-200L
But I think btw 10 per knapsack is ok, 15ml max

Thank you. I just transplanted last Friday but saw insects on the leaves already. Am starting with belt expert insecticide, maybe I should use 7.5ml per knapsack because of the age, then later increase to 10, later 15. Please advise. Thanks

FarmTech:

Yes. But rotate it with others like saaf and hexaconazole-mancozeb

Additionally please. When should I start applying insecticide after transplanting? I only transplanted on Friday.

FarmTech:
.
Yes. But rotate it with others like saaf and hexaconazole-mancozeb

I will rotate the mancozeb + Metalaxyl fungicide with another with Mancozeb + Azoxystrobin as active ingredient. These are what i can get around me. Regarding insecticides, am starting with Belt expert (flubendiamide and thiacloprid), then later with Blaze (Emamectin benzoate). Pls, help with the dosage rate of the belt expert per 15 litres watee, 0.15L/Ha was only written on the bottle. Thanks

I've gotten holes that my boy will be using for irrigation for now... I will install drip by the time we enter dry season full-time

How about using watering can sir?

Thank you, much appreciation

zicky:
true... I've not seen that guy make any remarkable save just routine catch or picking ball from inside the net 😂

To be fair with him, he tried against Egypt..

Pls, i just made manure tea, what should be my mixing ratio with water that will be effective and also not burn my plant. I was thinking of using 1:4 (one part manure tea and 4 part water). Thanks

My manure is usu mixed with sawdust. Wet or dry doesn't matter. I apply 5-7cm away from the plants. During harvest I apply manure or npk weekly. Sometimes both.

My manure is from deep litter, mixed with wood shavings..Can this be used for side dressing flowering cucumber?

Do i need to bury it into the soil for the fear of rain not washing them away? Thanks always

opes:
Sir, the manure must be very dry and the application must be at what distance from the plant? Any effect of this weekly manure application on bi-weekly usage of NPK? Thanks

FarmTech:

Ok. Once flowering starts, i apply poultry manure weekly. 1-2 handful per plant. With this I harvest over 10x (I will try to get the exact number with the current batch).
.
Isnt there risk of leaching if you apply everythkng at once?

Although 8 out of every 10cars in Ghana runs on CNG

Litre is 11.5 cedis. And 1 cedi is 68.5 naira

History disagrees with you. Just winning out home matches won't suffice. We have to win everything or we'll repeat history.

This is an exact replica of the 2006 World Cup qualifiers. We played 19 games and coincidentally also had Rwanda and Zimbabwe in our group then. Nigeria won 6 games, drew 3 games and lost just 1. On paper that should have been sufficient to qualify but a motivated Angola did ahead of us.

We have to approach each game seriously and make sure we win. An other turnout is setting ourselves up for failure.

I was only saying we have been having problems with our home matches of late but doing well playing away, that if we can fix the problem at home, then we are good.

If we can fix and work on our home matches. Cant remember the last time we lost a match away in our qualifier matches..

The main roads are super tight now and it's doubtful getting vacant land along ologuneru main road. The one sold last year was a two plot with two three bedroom detached flats on it and was sold for 32million naira as at last year August and no sir I don't have any personally on the main roads of both akobo and ologuneru presently.

but there is an hectare at eni-osa after olorunda abba, three plots together off olorunda-abaa along success road sir, and lots of single plots inside akobo oju irin, elewuro and the likes sir

Oh..thinking it will be hard getting land in hectare at Eniosa.

Yes. Do so 7cm away from them.

Pls, what type(s) of fertilizer do you use and schedule of usage for each type. At what age should each type (fertilizer) be applied? Thanks

Panther Tomato seedlings. I counted them all... Guess what! 376 seeds I got. I am expecting at least 60% success rate...worst scenario 200 healthy plants.

Though old thread, but still believe i can still get response. I got this same seed variety (F1 PANTHER 17) from Technisem. How was the experience planting this,tje yield? Just backyard garden though. Thanks
