if it hybrid you are planting there is no need to dress it again, but if it is local seed, go to agro shop in your area, buy dress Force and ask on how to use it. The purpose of dressing the seed is because of insect.

Senior Chiefs,

Please do you guys know anyone that sells Magnesium Sulphate, Calcium Nitrate and Potassium Sulfate in painters instead of bags?

Also in your opinion, what's the best foliar fertilizer for cucumber?

Much thanks.

Ps: Any other person that knows where we can buy soluble fertilisers in painters, please be kind enough to intimate us. Thanks.

Jubali at Ibadan sells in paints or rather measurements.

I don't know about Lagos though

Agrovert or Haifa Bonus is always my best bet for Foliar Fertilizer.

They have the one for growth and Flowers... Get both of them
