Dem dey forbid food for this present economy?

Walahi, I no just gbadun that Okro for anything and can't say why. . The last time I ate Okro soup should be back in the 90's if my memory isn't failing me.

Ewedu I know, Ogbono I know, Plsssss Okro who art thou!!!

Mariangeles:
You be like one of my brothers.
The guy hate okro dye!

You go plant waterleaves too? I learn say e dey grow fast well-well.

jidestroud:
For waterleaves? Plant them? Kind of sound strange to me hearing that.

Although, I think I have seen were it's been grown at people's backyard. For me, waterleaves na confirm weeds on my farmlands.

A few of my vegetables buyers to come with sacks to help me weed them out.

Dey don beg me taya make I no spray Dem and kill Dem off...once once sef, me sef dey use am freestyle Edikaikong soup.

Hmmm... nothing else is associated with what was initially posted. Everything else was done by me... from land clearing to burning the debris, making of beds, applying manure and finally, transplanting. Shikena!!!

Well, this may not be applicable to all. You can pay for it if you chose to. For me, making the beds isn't such a big deal . I gave myself of making 4 beds per day till i populate the whole one plot. Na bed making I dey use while away boredom . . Likewise, manure from my poultry birds is been used. I have that in excess. And as for water, there's a borehole on the farm. Also, a well as a backup plan (I no get time to go dey look for fuel if light no dey and water finish for thank)

Cost reduction is Key for me. gbam!!!

Some of us that were raised in the city don't know much about farming.

They are going to sell it... and not cheaply I can assure you.

I'll start by saying this favorite quote of mine; It is God's blessings deposited in man and discovered, and not just discovered but put to action that makes such a man successful in life.

Grew up in the heart of Lagos, Maryland & Festac to be precised. Nevertheless, we've always produced our own garri & fufu . Na so my papa go put me for his most priced car then, a Volkswagen aka Bettle aka Ijapa car, then drive all the way to ogun state villages bordering Lagos to go arrange cassavas to be processed. All those years, no farm lands we no dey enter . I would want to believe those are the years farming activities imprinted on my destiny .
Moreso, we've always kept dogs, cats, rabbits and doves as pets growing up. So all these contributed to my passion for growing both livestock & loving how mother Earth gives life to plants, so fascinating.

But, the main confirmation as to me going to become a farmer came in S.S.3 (in Federal Government College, Ijanikin, Lagos State), when God personally told me, You shall be a FARMER . Heard Him loud & clearly.

jidestroud:
Obviously. But the problem for me is, how do I ask them for money for the waterleaves? When most times they see me weeding it off all the time .
I just allow them weed it out for me. most times I see them going with as much as 2 to 3 filled sacks.

jidestroud:

You can look for another set of traders to sell the waterleaves to.

Mariangeles:
Money does not always equate hardworking .

Some men with that mindset easily offend women.
It is okay for a woman to just admire a hardworking man.

The Pepsi still causes indigestion


Sugar plus any food doesn't make the food digest...instead it putrefies and make one fall sick and in the end, people end up blaming germs as cause of sickness

Germs don't cause diseases! Germs fo to disease tissues/cells...

The same way mosquitos dont cause still waters!
Mosquitos GO TO STILL WATERS!

You know, for some reason, I thought vegetables grew taller than what I'm seeing.
