The video on how I apply fertilizer and stake is now available. Price of cucumber here is 5500-6500 at the moment. I mistakenly bought 20:10:10 thinking I bought 15:15:15 because 15:15:15 was written on The bag. I had to apply common sense to apply it if not ![]()

Farmerakinloye6: Bro, well done for the videos. I know this is not a cassava thread, Please,a quick one. is the 20 bags manure for the maize n cassava? If you plant cassava in May? 1.How many months do you think your cassava will be ready for harvest? 2. How do you get good planting cassava stems( hybrid, disease resistant stems)? 3. Can one plant cassava anytime of the year or there is a specific time? From your experience, when is the best time to get value from cassava harvest using the cucumber/dry season approach. |

Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Farmerakinloye6(m): 6:13am On Mar 31, 2021 |
northbird:the 20 bags is for cucumber. It will be ready for harvest by next year march- may. 2. We have good varieties here, #500 per bundle not negotiable even if you are buying 10000 bundle. 3. You plant From March till first week of October. The best time to invest more is When there is glut because a lot of people will be discourage and jump out. Price of cassava is high now and many people are jumping in... anything can happen next year. |

Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by ideepaul: 9:26am On Apr 05, 2021 |
Farmerakinloye6:Not enough sir! Maybe 5-6 is applications of 5g per application (2.5g urea and 2.5gNPK) for first and maybe 2nd depending on the cultivar) and (2.5g of NPK and 2.5g MOP) for the remaining applications, you could fertigate to ease stress. It works for peppers, tomatoes, and cucumber according to EWS recommendations...i won't lie, it's hard to follow this method sha 2 Likes 1 Share |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Farmerakinloye6(m): 5:50am On Apr 06, 2021 |
Nice input ideepaul, but then, they are some factor we should also consider like land fertility and manure. For example I applied just once fertilizer to maize (ogbese Akure) in 2016 the result was five-six Cobs on each stand and when pluck and opened, it is empty, all because the land is fertile already adding fertilizer was like overdosing it. The following year I went to other place to farm 9 hectares maize without applying fertilizer(Ore Ondo State) thinking the place is also fertile in my mind not knowing they have been using the place for more than 15 years, although I was advised by people farming in that area but I don't listen, it was after six weeks I discovered it was a huge mistake not applying fertilizer at two week old, so I rushed to apply 20:10:10 but it is already late. Where I supposed to see minimum of 306 flour bag, I see you just 13 flour bag. The purpose of my epistle is we should know when, quantity and how to apply manure, fertilizer, fungicide, insecticide e.t.c if any of this is wrongly use the result can really backfire! 2 Likes 1 Share |

27 old today, I will introduce Cabrio duo in my next spraying. Also, I will prune and apply second fertilizer by weekend.
