[quote author=vanpeele post=42431789] @Austin234 I have 300 sacks. The sacks cost me nothing cos I approached a block maker for the cement bags but in Kaduna you can get them for 50 naira for a dozen, 5 or 10 naira for one. The soil is free. Bought 5 bags of cow manure @ 200 per size 6 sack, so that's 1k. Pesticide (fighter 35ec 500ml) for 1k, Murano F1 for 4900 naira at the time (the price is now 6500 due to dollar) and the other varieties for free ![]() Didn't sell my first harvest. Shared it for blessing sake but my second harvest (this Wednesday), I harvested two bags from three rows. Market price was 1500 per bag. Sold mine at 2500 ![]() how long does it take to grow? |

@Stanleyobey soil to manure ratio 2:1. Example 2 wheelbarrows of soil to 1 of cow manure (NEVER USE CHICKEN MANURE) @panch001 58B81615 BB @MissSlimbody Black soil @Ganjafama LOL. Doesn't have to be large scale. 1 sack is ok for a tiny garden. Imagine everyone in the face me I face you had just 1 sack of different crops. Una go dey share foods...spreading love. @spafu 58B81615 BB 2 Likes |

Haba Oga @Jasper7! U shld know better than that nah. If "guru" like u is asking such question, what do u want beginers like us do? Anyway, @vanpeele has done justice to ur qusetion. But, biko; he no finish am............ jasper7: I really want to commend u 4 ds effort & wish to state that ur actions has also re-inspired poeple like us to go all out for sack farming because of the numerous benefits most of which u have mentioned. Well done bros vanpeele: Bros, am adding more benefits of sack farming below: 4. Sack farming prevent weeds from invading the plants thereby minimising/eliminating cost of herbicides. 5. If the soil used in d sack is treated well, u can use same soil many times. 6. In the events that a plant in sack is infected, it is easy to isolate & remove the affected sack thereby minimising infection to other plants. All in all, sack farming reduces maintenace cost for the farmer. 5 Likes |

@texybaby You're already learning by reading the thread ![]() @Beboy23 Find agritropic in your state and if you can't find it travel to nearest state to you that has it or ask a friend (you trust with your money) that's in a state where they sell it to buy...then send through courier to you. Hope this helps |
