I think efia is the best opv seed you'll find in the market,... some will even tell you it is better than most of these hybrid seeds from technicm...

I'm not even interested in hybrids fresh pepper.heard most still get devastated by bacteria and fungi so what's the point? I just need a nice fresh pepper with shombo-level disease resistance. I would be so made.Lol

So I've started my dry season cucumber.
Circumstances won't allow complete planting yet.
So 1st batch land prep

Please how long can a pepper plant stay and keep on producing?

I heard some can even stay upto 2 years.

So I've heard.. but the production rate will reduce drastically.. and it wont be worth the time and effort..

At most from seedling to death.. 9 months

30cm is quite small for tomato and the disease pressure won't be funny, don't you think?

The cultivar you're planting will speak for you....

I can't speak for cutivars but I don't have that mind o...I'm only confident about close spacing for cucumber close spacing.
My question is how will Weeding be done?

Re: My First Farming Attempt At Maize,okra,egusi Melon And Pepper. by Mrkellz(op): 9:45pm On Jan 02, 2020

So this was my supermarketer test plot.
They're coming in now at 6weeks and fruits are so green.
Thank God it was a success even with DM(I expected this from the swamp which was the reason for the test in the 1st place) and it seems systemic Fungicides work just fine.

Ofcourse you'll use mulch, bed weight size 120cm double row.. distance btw each plant 30cm distance btw bed 50cm

Y such a wide bed with so little spacing in-between?

It depends on how youd like to do yours it doesn't necessarily mean, it has to be exactly thesame.... but atleast the distance btw opposite plants on a bed should be 60 to 70cm

So I'm liking my supermarketer trial...This is the most green cucumber I've ever harvested. The difference really is the manure. Land preparation continues. Downy mildew so far has no effect on the fruits.

From the pix, it shows thiis is the opv they call Jos.
Since this is not raining season, what made you draw the DM conclusion? Or did you see traces of DM in the plant/farm?

This is griffaton's supermarketer.
I'm usinga a swampy area so DM is expected.saw just2 instances of PM. Had to prune the infected leaves at about 4weeks, then sprayed fungicides and fertilizer, worked wonders.

Any seed seller should have it. I bought it 2700 for 100grms.
The fruits get bigger, I was just impressed by the color I had to eat 1.
