Seedlings tray is the most convenient way for transplanting your seedlings, and you can easily calculate the germination rate.. all you have to do is pull the plant by the base stem when the plant is atleast 4 weeks old to get it out of the tray

And theres also an opening beneath the tray which allows you to push the plant upward with a stick
you don't need stick, it uproot easily

pls how do you remove seedling from nursery tray,does it have openings under that the root ball can pop out,or will it be scooped out physical with something like spoon,I am just looking at that seed traye,seems to me it will cause more transplant shock tl

Zero shock bro, the plant root if well fed could have bake up with the planting medium. Removing is easy.

I went to a medium sized pepper farm today and was mildly surprised,the lady said that she bought a satchet of hybrid avenir f1 pepper last 3 years and since than she has been recycling the seed she got from her farm and this year will make it the second generation to be recycled,if I haven't seen the farm I will not believe,the current farm now has been harvested for 9 months now and she has already saved the seed to be planted again, Same size,smell, flavors, nothing different.

what you will know is that yield depends on many factors like soil, management,etc,but from what I have seen with my two korokoro eyes the yield will be the same

I am going back to that lady farmer house to collect saved avenir pepper seed we will use for our nursery,I have seen with my eyes and it works,I am not spending ₦30,000+ on seed that has 20-30% chance of germinating,I rather buy ₦5k saved seed and be sure of 70-80% germination and will give same result,that the lady's farm survived the whole rainy season without any disease infection speaks volumes.

So today, my manager called me early this morning, saying my newly planted pepper are already germinating they're 2 days and few hours old

Now I'm started to understand, when you all said the previous planted batch were chlorophyll deprived

Sorry about the camera quality, I had my manager quickly use a low end device to get some photos, so I can see for myself

No.. though I soaked the failed batch, I'm still a practicing farmer always open to new suggestions.. since I soaked my previous batch I tried a new method for the new batch..

So this time I distributed 128 seeds (1 tray) on wet tissue papper.. kept it beneath my dstv decoder for 3 days.. just for the seeds to get the warmth of the decoder, by last week Saturday when it was time to plant the seeds on the trays.. the roots of over 80% seeds where already developed

just have a good fungicide ready because of damping off, immediately after germination it will strike,if you see them falling down just reduce the irrigation frequency or skip a day and spray with fungicide like zforce it works.

Do u mean I should spray fungicide at nursery stage,wouldn't that have a negative affects on the young plants .

How do I prevent this. If I most use fungicide at that stage, will I use same quantity use for mature plants.

if you want to prevent or reduce the chances that damping off will affect your nursery,get firewood and create a big bonfire on top of the area you will collect the soil or do the nursery on,after the area most have cooled down you sow,but always keep fungicide around,they don't have negative affect on seedlings,just get small spray can like used for local insecticide,put one big spoon of fungicide and use, damping off is not joking it can clear 50-70% of an already germinated nursery.

Go for the afadja (red) and loleza (yellow) instead. They are good for open farming. I am expecting some prices from a dealer this evening.

I can buy it for you o, but waybilling is the problem, I've never done waybilling before and I'll have to find motoparks that are going to the east from abeokuta, it would've been easier If I was in lagos
