sorry is this an hybrid seed?
And can it produce bigger tomato fruits that can be sold?
How much do you sell per grams or sachets?
And how many can cover up a plot if presumed,
because am ready to test my hands on multiple different tomato seeds variety i can get my hands to, so i can finnally decide on the one that is best for me

Yes, it's an hybrid seed. Kindly contact me on my cell 0+8+1+4+7+3+8+2+7+8+0

Thank you for drawing my attention to that,the Cameroon pepper is definitely not a hybrid variety but an improved variety from ITAR Cameroon,it is liked by farmers because of high disease resistance and high yields,but we have also added two more incredible pepper varieties and it is the work of 5 years of selective breeding,the story started in 2015 when we planted an F1 avenir red pepper farm and discovered several things,first 1-2% of the red pepper crops produced only yellow fruits throughout their production cycle, secondly many of the crops falled to disease during the peak rainy season and thirdly few crops survived the disease,so we went to work and preserved the seeds from the yellow mutated crops and the survivors and planted the next year as second F2 generation,we futher discovered that 20-30% of the yellow pepper plants produces yellow fruits that turn red when fully riped ,also on the red pepper farm we discovered also some crops has diseased leafs,so we uprooted and discarded the offenders and selected the best performing crops for a futher F3 and F4 cycles ,we have now seen the perfect results we need in this F5 generation we planted exclusively for seed with no changes in flavour,aroma,fruit size yield and plant vigour,so we now have yellow avenir variety and red avenir disease resistant variety,but for trademark issues we have decided the varieties be known as yellow scorpion and red scorpion,the desire to embark on such a tedious task is caused mainly by the erratic supply of seeds from Cameroon and the germination and disease issues with the F1 avenir,I cannot help but thank Mr vituss aneke a silent nairalander and the first farmer to get the yellow scorpion variety (100 grams)in PH last week,the flavor,aroma,size and yield of the old F1 crop now in a yellow package.

Sir, Don't thank me. Its likely You saved me half a decade of my life. Right at the very moment I wanted to start the experiment you just concluded is when you announced you have a by-product so why thank me? My plans has just changed from laying a foundation, to building on the solid blue print laid by such innovative Giants as u sir.
Infact as a result, I am going solo on this new scorpion verity, I have already sold all my ready to plant pepper seedlings of other verity I did and I am starting a new batch of nursery strictly for scorpion verities. I am really kin to see the out come of this and I will follow it up to the end.
And thanks to God almighty we are in rainy season so we are getting to work right away to review it's performance during rainy season.
And In addition to this, I will create a thread where all the steps and process used for it's review is updated with pictures consistently so as not to derail this cucumber thread.

Here is what I got on Saturday morning, yellow scorpion verity although.
Net weight 100grms
If I had known I would be doing this independent consumer review for this new product, I would have added at least 50grms of the red scorpion verity.
But with out delays, we have started working on what we have at hand immediately.
We have started the sprouting process already on Sunday.

Our sprouting process started on 14th day of June 2020 indoors in sack.

I really hope and pray it works out well @ dubem because I am so interested in next year's scorpion® cultivation

Cucumber seeds are scarce and expensive seriously. In Uyo, you can only get saira from east West and Nandini cuke seeds no matter how hard you try. The 5g pack are sold @ 3,500 each....most people can't waybill due to the challenges revolving around the interstate lockdown. I called Thai agro and they said seeds are not available for the time being...and I hope you know some zones have their preferred cucumber type if you don't want to face serious marketing challenges

Cu999 seeds are now available in Uyo, but the prices are a little bit high.

I bought Haifa bonus and noticed that the contents are green coloured crystals instead of the usual pink I've been seeing. I don't know if that's how it is now, or I never came across this particular type or maybe I bought an adulterated one. Plus I've not seen results like the previous ones. Possible suggestions from here will be of help

the green is the original color of Haifa,the pink is a new production but all are good,but I prefer the green type.

Who knows about this Thai agro ltd? Earlier in the week I ordered for 50gram of their CU 999 and the promised to deliver by Friday latest. Since then haven't heard from them, their both lines have been switched off since yesterday.

They are 101% honest. They don't work on weekends. Relax, you will get your seed.

did I see 50 kg or is it a typo error, maybe the op meant by 50 grams because I doubt if Thai agro can sell such quantities to one individual farmer,50 kg cu 999 seed will be almost a million naira to be planted on which land.,moreover the office phone is only open from 9am-4pm,monday-friday,if you are trying to call them off this period you are wasting you time.

The green coloured one is for growth stage while the pink coloured one is flowering stage....

okoroemeka:
even if it's cured, chicken manure is better used with caution,the dried type from deep litter is sold for ₦1200 a bag,but the battery cage litter is free ,if you have means to take it,the farm don't have proper facility for storing the wet litter and the daily waste is big and can fill 3-4 tipper trucks daily, so we have to think out a plan on how to better utilize the free waste.

How do you move the wet manure to your farm

hmm,a very interesting and in sight full idea,now I see the difference,but this is a let down by the manufacturer for not providing sufficient information on the pack,thank you my brother this is a real eye opener

safarifarms:

How do you move the wet manure to your farm

the manure is not Soo wet like slurry type but just thick and damp like garri ,so we just get empty cement bags with our pickup truck and wait when the farm workers will start clearing the cages,they start clearing the battery cages everyday by 9-10am,so they just fill the bags for us,from roughly 25-30 chicken pens,the manure from one pen fills more than 80-100 bags,so we choose the pen that has the thickness manure for easy handling and transportation.

Ok. Thanks

How does wan tackle this birds that come and destroy cucumber, they eat half and move to another one, I have two trees in they farm that's where the birds stay

Thanks boss, it's actually 50 gram maybe I have started visioning 50 kg. Anyways you have been a great influencer to many people, I will be starting cucumber, pepper, and garden egg farming this season and I hope you'all will help me achieve success.

Thanks bosses for your inputs @okoroemaka and Pipi84.

I'm still thinking both are favourable for vegetative growth stage though. Since there's a Multi K foliar spray for flowering and fruiting from same Haifa.

BECALMBECALM:
Thank you Mr Okroemeka. That is exactly what I was thinking.But I am considering availability of cheap farm land in Akwa ibom.I do not know if one can easily get cheap farmland to buy in Akwa ibom.For ilorin land is not an issue.Again thanks for answering my question (Chukwu gozie gi nwanne mmadu).

Land is quite expensive in Akwa Ibom State

I have received many requests by farmers seeking were or how to buy driptapes,it's very funny how can a blind man lead somebody,we are looking for a 1000m driptapes ourselves and that no2 question is very relevant,the dry season is coming and definitely the rain will stop by October,so if anybody has any info on how to help it will be appreciated by many,I intend going to onitsha to look for a 1000m 30cm spacing drip,it must be available there,the prices I am getting from the few dealers on NL is too much.

What if one improvises with PVC pipes that are punched at the right internals, won't it serve the purpose? Or won't it be cost effective?

drip tapes has small inbuilt emitters that gives the same amount of water(4 ltr/hr) through out the whole setup,but if you open PVC pipes the first hole maybe dropping 20 ltr/hr while the last holes maybe 1-2 ltrs/hr,also the cost a 15ft length of PVC is #800 naira to get 3000 ft(1000meters)you will need 150-170 lengths,while a 1000 meter drip with accessories is roughly #60k

Nice comparison. What about durability? Do you have a rough idea on how long each will last?
