Unfortunately i didn't have a good yield on my maize.


Birds ate many, insect and worms also wreck many.


Unable to snap, because after i harvested the rest, my mom boiled them straight away when i went to watch Man City vs Everton.

When did you plant those ones?

oyetpel:
Snails trying to figure out how to escape.

I just hope Lincoln Burrows is not in this penitentiary.

I won't want a situation where his brother, Micheal Scofield will draw all the blueprint of the pen, in other to break his brother out.

LOL

Are you sure that they are not running away from soldier ants?

My first tomato harvest.

There are still plenty green ones in the garden, when they are ripe i will harvest them.

The tomato was in different varieties, one of tyre, hausa one, our own which contains plenty fluid in the south and little tomatoes.

I never thought one could spend so much on Agriculture, after i saw jidestroud's thread i was inspired to expand the farm and plant vegetables.

Shouts out to you jidestroud.

Nice one here! This thread just motivated me. There is this little piece of land in my backyard. I've always wanted to plant something there but only the thought of goats feeding on my crop scarces the hell out of me and that has been a barrier. Now that I know there is a way around it, I can't wait to pick up my farming tools and storm the place. My question now is: 1. What can I plant now? knowing that the rainy season is almost gone 2. Where can I get these hybrid seeds? My location is Ebonyi state. Please reply soon as my blood dey hot.
