[quote author=Farmerakinloye6 post=115498346] am not experts, but this is my own advice; 1. Greengo 2. Npk 15 15 15 and potassium nitrate 3. Funguforce, Cabrio duo, caterpillar force, imiforce and any cypermethring.[7/quote] Thank you sir for your usual response. I have made the riggies for the cumcumber planting. Sir do I need to use herbicide on the ground before planting the cumcumber just for weed control or I should plant now and later use selective herbicide to control the weed. 2. Which selective herbicide can you recommend for cumcumber and tomato farm that will kill the weed without affecting the plants? |
Re: My Cucumber Farm Dairy by Farmerakinloye6(m): 9:31am On Aug 10, 2022 |
mykepeter:1. If the ridges is new, plant immediately. 2. Do according to your strength, I will not advise you to be using any herbicide after you plant. It occasionally I spray contact herbicide (my furrow) when we are busy, then manually weed ridges. |

Farmerakinloye6:Producing cucumber here isn't a hard task but of you are going on a large scale, you really have to take marketing serious unless you would have most of your cucumber spoil before getting a buyer. Learning how to bag to make your cukes attractive. Keeping the biggest sizes which would be used to fill up the bag. Making sure the cucumber untop is rinsed before bagging (this makes it attractive) Don't be to greedy with price as my oga said earlier. If their are many cucumber in the market sell asap even if it would require a little deduction. Always stay with your cucumber and make sure you sell everything that same day. If it stays overnight at the market, it loses its value 1 Like 1 Share |
