ideepaul:

143*105ft(15015ft²) is more than 2 plots(60*120)*2=14400ft².
Also a standard acre takes 8000-10000 tomato plants (depending on cultivar, agronomic practise, farmers risk taking ability, time of the year, and your climatic zone). By this standard, 2 plots will take between 2700- 3300 tomato plants. You may decide to add more or reduce based on the your risk taking capacity. Spacing for for Padma and platinum is 50cm, farming concepts and practices are dynamic, so you may adapt such to suite your needs


The drip tap that I bought is 30cm( 1ft) spacing, how do I then plant 50cm space? or should I continue planting with the 30cm as provided by the drip tape?
thanks

you have to be careful in spraying either contact or systemic in your TOMATO farm.i prefer manual weeding, and if you are expert in spraying, you can do ring weeding for each stand then contact herbicide between the ridges (I don't recommend any kind of systemic herbicide in TOMATO farm)

Well said.
Moreover, he or she could employ the use of mulch to also control weeds. Works perfectly for me.

Why don't you drop it here so people can contact you if they can afford it.

Hmmm, this life no balance at all! I am in my friend farm at the moment,and during our conversation I detect he codedly happy rain do not fall because of this reason; 1. his TOMATO do not experience fruit abortion normally cause by wind and heavy rainfall. 2. By now TOMATO suppose to have being 3500-4000 naira per crate instead it is 6000-7500 at the moment in akure, he is cashing out seriously. 3. By now, he always experience waterlogging and the reverse is the case now. 4. The fruitfulness and sick level compare to the one we did February is fantastic! His conclusion is " it seems God really want to favor certain people this year" do you agree??

curling/folding leaf in TOMATO. I think it is cause by high humidity/heat and it not that dagerous, as tomato normally overcome it. It happened to those we plant January-march but don't happen now.

Fungi in tomato, spread rapidly and deadly too. It can not be cure but manage. Ways I think it can be manage are 1. Cut and dispose the affected part 2. Spray anytime rain fall 3. Have Ortiva top has part of fungicide you will use. More loading...
