Bought some chemical at federal ministry of Agriculture today... At very cheap price compared to what they sell at market, the difference between the price is up to 800# per bottle. What I use to buy 1700 was sold to me for 1043#.it is available across the nation,check your locality. Chemicals available are Herbicide, fungicide, insecticide etc. They also sell pumping machine and some other farm implements.. If you can't get it in your area I can be of help. 1 Share

The harvesting of the 2500 cucumbers is still going on we harvest today making it twice we have harvested and it will continue until the crop dies off and the results tallied but until then let us leave cucumbers for a while and look at another amazing veggie with serious money making potential,a friend of mine planted Watermelon last year March and told me that a good well managed crop pulls in ₦800-₦1,200 in income,hmmmm!too good to be true,but I found out from another farmer that the crop will produce 1-3 balls per crop @₦300-400 per one,it looks like my friend is telling the truth,we did WM last year oct-nov but they all died when we used rain gun to irrigate, |

So the month is March,it's prime WM planting season,the rains has drenched the soil and it looks like the weather will cooperate and we are scratching our heads on the variety to plant,herakles f1 or koloss f1,the simple logic is that if my friend can plant herakles a variety with maximum size of 10-12 kg and sell at ₦350-400,what if we plant koloss with size of 10-15kg the biggest WM by techinsem ,how much can we sell it how many balls can 50 gram can yield,how much can it pull in I need answers to these questions and will find out the hard way by planting one 50 gram koloss f1 WM,I know many people will also like to know the answers ,we shall find out together by planting on Saturday election day. 1 Share

okoroemeka: hello sir, why are you considering Koloss f1? are you sure you are not gonna have a problem with getting market for it ? Cause in abuja here, anything that doesn't look like kaolack skin colour might not be accepted |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 7:14pm On Mar 10, 2019 |
Cocoboms:in our area what matters is how red the inside is and how sweet it is,the color or pattern of the exterior does not matter, another big factor the market needs is size the bigger the better and koloss will easily top 12 kg,a fruit of 12kg will sell whole sale for not less than #500 per one,so the bigger the better. 1 Like

okoroemeka: I have heard Koloss f1 is very big. #500 per big ball is a good deal. Coincidentally I planted Heracles f1 WM on 6th/7th March. I'm praying for a good outcome. Rain fell a day before I planted. But I have plans to irrigate tomorrow or next. |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 8:08pm On Mar 10, 2019 |
Cocoboms:WM don't like much water,irrigated at least every other day or three days,from what I am seeing they need mostly urea fertilizer,we plan to fertilizer every 2 weeks to get 2 balls per plant. |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by Cocoboms(m): 9:13pm On Mar 10, 2019 |
okoroemeka: My irrigation most likely would be once a week till the rains pick up cos of the cost of running my water pump twice a week. The technisem technical guy in Ghana adviced me about adding calcium and potassium fertilizer esp when flowering starts and against fruit abortion, that's in addition to the high nitrogen fertilizer. He said he only fertilized twice, I was shocked; this one you are planning on fertilizing every 2 weeks (smiles). Although I read about 3 applications (@DAP, @25Days and @45days). |

okoroemeka: OP, have you heard about a 60days-from-sowing-maturing hybrid watermelon in Nigeria. I have been reading about it online, but no one has mentioned the name of the variety. Have you heard anything on it? And what's your take on Erato f1 watermelon from EWS? 1 Like |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 10:45pm On Mar 10, 2019 |
Cocoboms:my brother I have to fertilizer like that because the land has been under intensive cultivation for 6 years straight now,from plantains ,Cavendish bananas, cucumbers,fresh peppers, cucumbers again, garden egg,now WM,so as you can see we need serious soil amendment. |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 10:55pm On Mar 10, 2019 |
Cocoboms:it possible my friend harvested Hercules F1 in 68 days,I think days to maturity depends on weather,pls I don't know about EWS,we only plant varieties that had been tested and trusted to withstand the high disease pressure in the tropics,we are not playing betnaija inside bush,it deadly serious business not try your luck. |
