Thank you.

Ortiva top is a powerful and effective fungicide,15ml for 15l.once you use your regular fungicide and insecticide twice, alternate it with only Ortiva top.

Ortiva top is a powerful and effective herbicide that compromise both insecticide and fungicide,15ml for 15l.once you use your regular fungicide and insecticide twice, alternate it with only Ortiva top.

God bless you, OP and co., for this informative and educative thread. Sooner or later, I should be contacting you for advice on farming.

You r doing great job here bro, any tomato farmer who did not smile to the bank this year needs to go for deliverance.
You can also try out cobra F1, most ppl on NL complain that the fruits are small but the big size I got really wowed me, thanks to Jidestroud, his cobra review was right.
By the way, ortiva top is not herbicide, I guess is a typo from your end.

For those that are curious on how to apply lime, here it is.make ridges,then use drip tape to mark hole point, one cup of hand will do for each hole.

lime don't burn like 20:10:10 or manure, you can as well apply it with manure then leave if you like. Grade 1 TOMATO here is still 6.5-6k, Is GOD not wonderful? TOMATO farmer how market?

Good evening sir, pls how can I get the lime in powder form?

Good evening sir, pls how can I get the lime in powder form?

Lime is a powder based soil stabilizer!It's not a manure as it's just CaCO3 or CaMg(CO3)2 meaning the major ingredients are calcium, magnesium and the carbonate, and hence cannot replace the functions of the manure, but rather, supplement it.

Agric lime helps to reduce incidents of fruit cracking and blossom end rot, but doesn't have any NPK value and very little micronutrient values associated with fertilizers and manure

Can Agric Lime be foliar sprayed?

NO sir! And before you use the lime, be sure you need so you don't worsen things. if the pH is too high, instead of applying lime to such a soil, apply calcium nitrate if needed even though it's more expensive

Evening folks. I have a question concerning the source of water for drip irrigation. I have a stream running through my farm but if I chose to use pumping machine directly the water will be drained in no time

I am thinking of using a storex to store the water and connect it to the drip tape directly. Now assuming am setting up for an acre can the pressure from a storex supply water to the drip line efficiently without losing pressure ?

assuming you cultivate an acre of cucumber/tomato, you will have already 10,000 crops with a minimum daily water intake of 5L. This gives you 50000L of water daily for irrigation (it will be definitely far more). Some streams can't irrigate a plot, not to talk about an acre! It's either you drill a borehole, you reduce the landmass, or you relocate

if you know it will dry anytime soon don't plan dry season with it.

water in storex can not be enough for an acre. And, if it is your first time, I Will advise you start with 2 or 3 plot, then expand.
