Re: A Thread For Growing Watermelon In your backyard With Photos by pamdaniel(m): 2:08pm On Oct 27, 2016 |
pragmatistm:OK fine! I don't know the length of damage done on the farm... u can never do water Mellon farming without having in mind fungicides... in as much as pesticiding is necessary so also fungiciding... get a good fungicide and spray on the farm... and it seems u are generous with ur insecticide. there is a specified amount in ml prescribed for all those chemicals, that's what u need to know b4 diving into watermelon farming... wish u good luck as u fungicide for rescue mission or good luck as u try again... water melon is the most lucrative crop once u know the secrets |
Re: A Thread For Growing Watermelon In your backyard With Photos by pragmatistm(m): 7:48pm On Oct 27, 2016 |
pamdaniel: Not much damage afterall. Only one fruit shows that sign. But to the bolded, can you mention the type of fungicides one can use and how many times before harvesting? |

Hello people. I have a question. What is the cause of water melon fruit breaking up on the farm(see the attached pictures) and the solution/prevention? cc: MAGNAM, palmdaniel, etc

Re: A Thread For Growing Watermelon In your backyard With Photos by pragmatistm(m): 6:22pm On Dec 16, 2016 |
pragmatistm: Where are all the water melon farmers? Come and respond to this question oo. |
Re: A Thread For Growing Watermelon In your backyard With Photos by DICON2: 10:26pm On Dec 16, 2016 |
The breakage is caused by water stress, either 2 much water or too much heat. Please check your farm if it's not affected by fruitfly, though the picture is not that clear. Are some watermelons getting rotten and you find maggot inside if opened? Are you irrigating, if not, Is rain still falling in your area, when did you plant? pragmatistm: |
Re: A Thread For Growing Watermelon In your backyard With Photos by pragmatistm(m): 3:58pm On Dec 17, 2016 |
DICON2:At the time there was much rain in my area. When some broken water melon were opened, there were maggots inside them. |
Re: A Thread For Growing Watermelon In your backyard With Photos by DICON2: 7:13pm On Dec 17, 2016 |
I guess that's fruitfly, please increase you insecticide procedure. Check for bad fruit and try to kill the maggots with insecticides, if not they will turn to fly and cause more havoc. Check d young fruits well for a hole, if any, fruitfly has laid egg inside Please take quick action cos if not checked you might lose a lot. pragmatistm: |
