My Cucumber Sample Farm by dammike(m): 2:05pm On Oct 10, 2016 |
Been a livestock farmer for some years now, and wish to take part in all sphere of agriculture, I ventured into crop farming on a medium scale. I planted watermelon majorly on my farm but bought a 10 gram hybrid cucumber seed to test the soil and how the process will go. Let's go on the adventure of the cucumber practical together just to be of help to someone out there. |

Re: My Cucumber Sample Farm by dammike(m): 3:40pm On Oct 20, 2016 |
DLuciano: it depends on the seed bought. hybrid seeds can use from 35 days while ordinary uses like 40-45 days to start harvesting |

Its a big business. Our society today see farming as a small scale business, and also the forget that what our belly need is food. As a vegetable farmer, i have an e-book on cucumber farming that will be published very soon. If you are interested on geting this e-book; just type a "Yes" Note its not for free ohh. |

Toscosamuel:can cucumber be planted at this period. I don't have source of water, can I water manually during dry season? |
Re: My Cucumber Sample Farm by imhere: 11:22pm On Sep 20, 2017 |
This time of the year is good for cucumber farming but you have to make provision for water incase the rains stops or to make up for the rain |
