IN SUMMARY

You don't need to have a whole plot of land to start, or have all the money in this world to begin. You can begin with the little land you have access to and take the above steps to learn and gain mastery before scaling up.
- Clear the Land
- Add your Compost or Animal manure
- Buy your seeds from the market, half paint or paint or more depending on the size of the land.
- Plant as indicated, one per hole at a depth of 5cm with a spacing of 60cm between plants,
remember to place the pointed part of the seed down or to be on the safer side, plant the seed flat.
- Keep watering the land
- In 5-12 days, the seeds will emerge, keep watering
- 2 or 3 weeks after emergence weed the farm and apply more organic manure.
-2 weeks later, you can do your first harvest and continue harvesting at 15 days interval while also adding manure, watering and weeding when necessary.

Erwinia aroideae causes soft rot of the leaves with yellowish ooze; it also affects the fruits.

Harvesting of ugu:
Ugu can be harvested after about 5 weeks after planting if it's for personal consumption.
However on a commercial basis it is advised to harvest at about 8 weeks after planting, then
ugu can be harvested repeatedly for about eight months at an interval of 2-3weeks.
Harvesting the right way will ensure that they regenerate after 2-3 weeks...the more you
harvest, the better and faster it grows...
You need to very careful with your first harvest as that has a way of affecting the sprouting
subsequently.

MARKETING
You can sell your ugu directly at the market, or you invite the market women to come to your
farm, they harvest and pay you.
The former is better as you'll make more gain from it.
To ensure a constant market, I'd advise you register with the market vegetable association, this way, you're guaranteed to bring in your produce to the market freely and immediately get buyers anytime you bring your produce.
It is important to do this and it's very cheap (5,000 per year) or 15,000 for a lifetime... Depending on your area.
Also note that market price fluctuates depending on the supply of ugu in the market.
Also, prices drop during the rainy season and skyrocket during the dry season.
If too many farmers bring their produce to the market, prices will drop.
Furthermore, you can become a supplier to Eateries, Restaurants, and supermarkets.
You can process by drying and cutting and package to sell at premium price...you can even export.

I welcome you all you our Third course on the list....

Control of pest: This practice should start 2 weeks after plants have germinated.
Pest such as leaf defoliators and some pathogenic infections are often noticed. Other pests that attack ugu include the grasshopper pest which feeds on the foliage and stems. The leaf beetle which feeds on the leaves, flowers and other plant parts, while caterpillars feed on leaves and bore into fruits.
Aphids also hinder growth by feeding on stem, foliage and flower buds, and transmit viruses.
To prevent them, use of proper seed treatment and application of any pesticide for vegetables as mentioned earlier will work.
This can be controlled biologically by boiling neem leaves (Dongoyaro) and spraying the
extracts in the leaves for a period of two weeks.

Diseases Control:
Ugu is quite susceptible to a lot of diseases that can easily hamper your crop and destroy your farms if timely action is not taken. Many of these diseases could be as a result of lack of proper care, maintenance and poor monitoring of your plants.
This could prove costly in terms of sudden yellowing in leaves, stunted growth of pods, wilting of stems or stalks and eventual death of the plant.
Moreover, it is more important to prevent an occurrence of pests and diseases rather than try to deal with them if they occur because once a pest or disease establishes itself on your crops there is often very little you can do to control it effectively. This implies that protection begins before the crops are even sown in the soil and as such we shall be focusing on good cultivation practices that help to protect crops against pests and diseases.

A prevalent virus disease is Telfairia mosaic virus; it causes the mottling of the leaves and low leaf yield; it also causes chlorosis, stunting and abnormal fruit development.
It is transmitted by the Aphids and also via bad seeds.
Others include: The White leaf spot disease, caused by Phoma sorghina. It reduces the leaf
lamina and also affects the seed. It is controlled by biweekly foliar spraying with Dithane M-45 at a concentration of 500 ppm.

Seed Germination:_ Well-treated seeds would germinate at about 7 days to 14 days after
planting.

Post planting operations:
After the planting and emergence of the seedlings, certain operations have to be put done to
salvage the seedlings to harvesting period, they include;
Watering/Irrigation:
The seedlings have to be watered daily for the first two weeks of emergence to enable them to grow well. During the dry season, watering should be done every day morning and evening.
Weeding:
Weeds have to be managed to guide against competition on water, nutrients etc. with the
seedlings.
First Weeding should be done at two weeks after germination and done every 3 or 4 weeks
subsequently.
Fertilizer application:
This should be done at 3 weeks after the plants have germinated.
The use of Organic fertilizer, rich in Nitrogen is encouraged in this case.
A nitrogenous fertilizer such as urea is the best to apply on an ugu farm, because ugu is a leafy plant and such fertilizer enhances the growth of the vegetative parts or leaves of the plant.
However, NPK 15:15:15 could be applied.
When applying it, endeavor to place the fertilizer a few inches away from the plant in a ring or circular form.
For a plot you can get 2 paints of NPK to apply.
If your hand or any of the Fertilizer touch the crop, it kills the crop.
Don't be scared it'll regenerate

Staking:
So Staking is not encouraged in commercial ugu farms as it distorts the growth habit and could reduce the potential yield on the farm. This is only encouraged if the sole purpose of planting is to harvest the pods.
Now, the staked farm gave more attention to pods and few leaves were gotten.
While the unstaked farm has leaves everywhere
So the goal is to harvest from just a small portion and you get a bundle to maximize Profit.
