I have a sneaky suspicion that chill is more disease resistant to pepper viral disease than habanero or bonnet.
can I plant pepper on the same land I previously used for tomato?

Go to lagos street, where they sell agricultural inputs, ask of Alfred, a short fat dark man, if he doesn't have it, ask of Uwaifoh, An average Height man who loves to introduce new product to his costumers.
each would have it.
if both doesn't go to farmers house at 2nd traffic light, sapkonba road.

.
Not advisable because they are from the same family. Which means that they share a lot of pests and diseases 2gether. There are root diseases that can badly affect ur plant and treating the soil may be very costly for you. So best option is to divide ur farm and rotate different crops in each section.

Lucky you. These are 62 days after transplanting. Watching out for them to start flowering.

How man ha are your peppers?

Pepper type - Avenir F1

Man! Is this your pepper farm. Looks foreign.
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by codeQue: 9:05am On Apr 04, 2020
Sorry, i have been unavailable.
I used NPK 15:15:15, selectively applied urea after some weeks cos some plants leaves were turning yellow.
When they started fruiting applied calcium nitrate.

GemAgro45:
Can you please share your fertilization schedule.
Thanx

How much did you get this?

Got it 7k, but the seeds were close to expiry. I had a bad experience with it though.
You might want to check the expiry first .
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by codeQue: 12:24pm On Apr 04, 2020

Yes, just waiting for them to ripe, within the next week, proper harvesting will be done.

hows the production rate of avenir f1.?
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by codeQue: 1:09pm On Apr 04, 2020
Psalmy2cute:

The pictures are not uploading.
In order of production

Super Habanero F1 - the fruits are as big or slightly bigger than Avenir ( I have not tasted it yet so i cant tell how hot it is ).
Avenir F1
Efia
Piquante red is not fruiting yet, we transplanted that late.

We did not prune any of the peppers. Super Habanero F1 and Avenir F1 are very busy, Efia is less busy.

There were some moralities of healthy plants. They just dried off. I chatted @okoroemeka, who was very helpful in recommending a copper based fungicide. I used this along side making some changes in the farm.
We increased the irrigation period from 3 hours to 6 hours, based on the intensity of the sun. The plants were healthy and the mortality stopped.
Some weeks later we noticed another one and after investigating it shows signs of Nematode, so we applied Velum (a nameticide).

All has been good since then.
I have not been to the farm in 2weeks + now cos of this lagos lockdown. I only monitor remotely.
