Been a while since I posted something here. I've been more active on Instagram but we just launched our website. www.sackfarm.com. Y'all should check it out.
p.s. we'll be organising a 1 month training very soon in Kaduna.
arvinkz: vanpeele wetin happen are u on honeymoon ni？ no positive vibes from u and isaq...we missed u guys.
haha yup. Got married a month ago. We're still here doing what we do best. I'm more on Instagram now. We're working on something that'll help farmers...especially greenhouse. I'll start a new thread if we're successful...
Yampotatocarrot: Bros, I sent a message to your email days ago,but u didn't reply. Though Organic foods have helped me out in that regards, please can I have your contact sobwe can chat better?
sorry bros. saw the mail but forgot to reply. my apologies please.
enshi: Some days ago i sought help concerning my gf who is a Social media freak.. Especially with posting slaying pics.
We actually got over the misunderstanding and tried to move on but it was after then that the unthinkable happened.. . She needed to move to a new apartment and therefore wanted me to suport her in raising some money...
She is aware i have some money in my account which was meant for something by next month but surprisingly she asked Me to help her from the money..
I tried giving her reasons why i shouldnt risk taking out money from the account but she refused to understand..
Recall that we stay in differnt states?? So i traveled to her state so as to explain things face to face but to my surprise she refused to see me though she earlier warned me not to try coming cos she would intentionally avoid seeing me but i took the risk just to see how mean she could get..
After waiting for hours and she didnt show up, i returned back to my state and yet i tried to fix things but this time she said things will go her way, and she mated out some rules to me...
These rules are evidently pointing out that she wants to start touring the state with her friends.. And believe me she will surely cheat..
We fell out on phone that sunday night and since then i have blocked her on my fb, whatsapp, and even deleted her number. She noticed it and sent me a text telling me that i was mean and heartless..
Since sunday she has been calling me but cos her number is barred on true caller i only see it as missed calls..
I really dont know if she wants us to make up or she is calling for the money..
The worst is we had an oath with the bible to stay fidel with each other and sincerely i think she had kept to the oath until now and like wise have i...
Pls what do i do cos i am not ready to touch the money meant for something serious and i cant continue with her based on the rules she gave then lastly we are on oath..
You had a bible oath.
Does the Bible teach you to have girlfriends before marriage?
Ernnyyoung: That's great, I which to do same too but how can i get a good veriaty of seed to plant? what is the name of the pesticide for pest and disease control? can one use MPK 15:15:15 to mix the sack soil before planting? What is the maximum seed one can plant in a sack? What time frame can the pesticide be applied? How can one know if the crop has been infected by disease? What season is best for to plant? Pls i really want to know more about the cucumber farming before going into it. This is my number 08037190203, you can call or WhatsApp me with it so we can talk or chat extensively about it.
Please read through the thread. Goto Instagram and search "SackFarm".
joncom: @vanpeele, I have followed this thread from page one to the last. I am very impressed with your style of teaching.
Though I work, I still want to try out this sack farming. If I start planting from March will it be good, knowing it rains a lot in Rivers state? Your thoughts please
Rain is a blessing but it comes with some diseases e.g.downy mildew but you can help your crops survive. You can build a structure like the one in the pic. This is tomatojos's seedling shed. The roof is transparent to let light in but also prevents rain. I hope this helps
chicwoman: Good evening vanpeele. Thank you for teaching us about cucumber farming. I tried cucumber sack farming last year and I encountered a lot of challenges, this affected the yield of my farm and I made a loss. I thought about it and I realized that I did not properly learn the basics of cucumber farming.
I want to try again this February and I want to ask you some questions. If you don't mind, may I please have your contact? I promise I won't bother you too much, I just need some to put me through before I plant again.
Thank you very much.
Hi,
it's on my Instagram page...don't want to post it here.
hollowpot15684: Guys pls how do I inform the lady I love that another lady is four month In with my baby, I've been with her for more than 4years and I don't want to loose her at all as I've make all my life plans with her.. whenever I imagine my future she's the only one I see in it.
Pls kindly advice me on how to handle this situation.. when is the right time to tell her or should i just keep it as a secret?? I don't want to loose her pls..
Stop deceiving yourself. You don't love her. If it was the other way around, you won't accept her.
alBHAGDADI: So, what is the context of the verse that says Muslims shouldn't greet Christians first unless the Christians greet them first? It even says they should force Christians out of the way.
alBHAGDADI: It's either Sanusi is using the Islamic deceit aka Al taquiya or he simply hasn't read the Quran. Those clerics can never stop preaching HATE in their mosques and madrasah cos it will mean that they will stop following what the Quran orders them to do. See below...
Quran (8:12) - "I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve. Therefore strike off their heads and strike off every fingertip of them"
Quran (4:76) - "Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah…"
Quran (8:39) - "And fight with them until there is no more fitna (disorder, unbelief) and religion is all for Allah"
Surah 48:29 Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah and those with him are HARSH against the unbelievers, MERCIFUL among themselves.
Quran (5:51) - "O you who believe! do not take the Jews and the CHRISTIANS for friends; they are friends of each other; and whoever amongst you takes them for a friend, then surely he is one of them; surely Allah does not guide the unjust people."
Sahih Muslim (2167) - "Allah's Messenger said: Do not greet the Jews and the CHRISTIANS before they greet you and when you meet any one of them on the roads FORCE him to go to the narrowest part of it."
Quran (3:151) - "Soon shall We cast terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers, for that they joined companions with Allah, for which He had sent no authority".
Quran (8:65) - "O Prophet, exhort the believers to fight..."
Quran (9:29) - "Fight those who believe not in Allah nor the Last Day, nor hold that forbidden which hath been forbidden by Allah and His Messenger, nor acknowledge the religion of Truth, (even if they are) of the People of the Book (CHRISTIANS), until they pay the Jizya with willing submission, and feel themselves subdued."
Anyone can isolate any verse of any book and claim anything. Context is key.
yeancahwunmi: Can I seive the tomato paste after grinding in order to reduce cooking time, since the water will still dry out? 'cos gas is now expensive o
Meggan76: Can the bottles / jars be reused over and over again if they are still intact? Or do I throw them away after first use and get new ones that have not been used to preserve tomatoes before?
I'm happy sack farming is gradually gaining grounds. For those who are still thinking about starting or doubting (as usual), here's a video and you should all GAF. Enjoy. Lalasticlala...this is a snake story..lol
Pavore9 let's give them Kenyans a run for their money.
odinaka5: Good morning. This has being very informative and encouraging. I want to ask if you know of any farmer based in Imo state so that I can contact the person. I want to be mentored on cucumber sack farming. I will gladly work for free just to get the experience. Thanks. My email is odys4life2000@yahoo.com
Arvinkris: U didn't conclude this thread @dear vanpeele. Tell us what was ur harvest/yield from this 2000 sacks, challenges compared to the previous 300 sacks?alot of love bro
Sorry for the late reply. I've been busy with the newbies. My total yield was 85 bags. Should have been more but the outbreak of downy mildew and the invasion of the leaf footed bug did them in. These were the major challenges. I don't think I can make a comparison because the 300 and the 2000 were planted in different seasons but I'll say that dry season cuke farming is better.
I'm happy a lot of people have gone into sack farming after opening this thread. In my opinion, it's the best form of investment regarding return on investment compared to fish and poultry.
For the latest updates, you guys can follow me on Twitter: @SackFarm Instagram: SackFarm
Been a while people...have started my second batch of crops. I have cucumbers but I think the news about them is quite stale now (IMO). I've a bunch of varieties planted now.
Anyways, drip lines has been an issue for some. So....we've 300 metre rolls for 25k. If anyone's interested, here's the PIN...D3F1296B.
