No no. It's normal binding wire just stronger and not rusty/galvanized. It's usually used to assemble battery cages( it comes in different thickness). I am away from the farm I would shown you pix. Go to iron market if any around you.

Hello Flowmama

How much is this and where can one buy it?

Thanks.
flowmama:


Thanks.

But instead of using Mag sulphate as micro, why not by chelated micronutrient and apply as foliar. This contain lots of other micronutrients

My brother please how much is this sold in your area?

Farmerakinloye6:
This is post hole digger. As a cucumber Farmer, if you can afford it buy one, especially if you are cultivating acres or hectares. It will be helpful during raining reason if you want to dig Baboo hole. Check my IG on how to use it.
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by adeolaben(m): 9:28am On Jan 31, 2022
Farmerakinloye6:
If after digging the hole for transplant, can I add the chicken litter/manure and wet it very well with water .. leave it in the hole for 3-5days before transplanting the young seedlings?

Can I place the seedling directly on the soaked manure in the transplant hole and the cover with soil?

Won't the seedlings die if I do this for cucumber/pepper/tomato?

Please can you explain better how you go about your process of using chicken manure?

.
use dry manure and might with sand at a 50%-50% ratio before pouring it into the hole. you can plant immediately but make sure you wet it

if the manure is dry/cure no problems, you can even plant immediately. Litter should be at least A month before you consider using it. If you use fresh litter or urine, your seedlings will get burn and die.

For those thinking on how to go about preparing land...here is my own; first picture, I loose my old ridges with this hole. second picture, I break the solid part and smooth with this heavy stick. Third picture, I return the drip tape so that I can Mark manure point.

. Cold will still make the fruits bend. Cucumber is a warm weather plant and extreme cold will still have effect on It. My thought tho.
