Please has anyone seen or heard from pistotita my man all this while? You know we need him around here, anyways 500k from a plot is very much possible even without hybrid seeds, all you need is to apply adequate amount of organic fertilizers and forliar sprays, all this crops needs to be taken good care of expectially when its time of their fruiting stage. The hardest stage of a farmer is when planting the seeds, the first one to two months can be really hard and stressfull, but when its time for harvest thats when you will be smilling like this ![]() 1 Like |

okoroemeka:Please sir, do you use over head tank or do you connect to pumping machine? Which one is better? Secondly, the connectors with valves and the ones without valves which is better and why? |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by TangoAlpha: 6:14am On Nov 19, 2019 |
frankedoka: Hello sir. If you will permit me to attempt to answer your questions... I will start by saying every farm setup is unique and as a result the configuration that's optimal for one farm might not be optimal for another. This is true in general terms and also specifically in terms of irrigation. Generally speaking, you can irrigate your drips with water coming from your borehole under the pressure delivered by your submersible pump. It should work in most cases. You can also deliver via overhead tank. One option is not necessarily better than the other. The overhead tank comes with added cost of installation. But gives you the added advantage of storage; which allows you to deliver water under considerable pressure without requiring to run tour pump until you exhaust the stored water. In terms of running costs. You still spend the same amount on fuel for the generator that powers the pumping machine. So no winner there. If your interest is in which option delivers better pressure? The answer is it depends on the height of the stand on which the tank is placed versus the capacity of the submersible pump versus the size of your operations. For a relatively small operation, pressure from the borehole would be adequate, in which case there will be no need for the added cost of installing overhead tank. The advantage of overhead tank is you have water stored, that you can use for irrigation even when you are not running your pump. The question is whether the extra cost of installing overhead tank is justified. I will say you can avoid that cost. In terms of the better drip connectors; in my experience, the ones with valves are better. They allow you the flexibility of deciding which beds to water, when and to what extent. They are definitely worth the extra cost. Depending of the setup of your drips and size of operations, you might discover that the pressure from your borehole or overhead tank or other sources of water is not getting to all the emitters on all the drip lines. Let's say you have 20 drip lines. You discover that not all the emitters are getting sufficient water, the connectors with valves allows you to do staggered watering. You close off the valves at say 10 of the driplines so that only 10 driplines have to share the pressure from your water source. You will find that the emitters will be better served and than when you had all 20 driplines lined up. After delivering sufficient water to the first 10 lines, you open the valves of the next 10 lines and close those first 10 driplines. Note, please do NOT close all the connectors before opening the next set....if your pump is delivering water and all the emitters are closed, you will start bursting your hoses or pipes....or even damage the pump. Even when your pump can serve water to all the driplines sufficiently, you might discover that more water gets some drip lines than to others so that after 1hour of running your pump, some emitter points are already saturated with water while others are not. It is advisable to isolate those that are saturated so that more water gets to those that are yet to get enough water. Otherwise you will overwater some crops and under water some and both categories of crops will potentially be stressed. I know that some very seasoned farmers can setup their drip irrigation in away that they can effectively use the connectors that don't have valves. But my advise will be to choose the option of with valve. It will save you many known and yet to be seen hassles. Cheers 4 Likes |

frankedoka:tangoalpha has hit the nail with a big hammer,we are using the pressure from a 1hp pump borehole and we discovered that the pressure is not reaching the last 10 ridges out of 56 ridges,if we have known valve connectors is better no matter the added cost,what we did was to divide the land in half and water first 25 ridges,then we switch the flexible hose to water the remaining,thank God we are still having light 4 Likes 1 Share |

Please, who knows how to use golden friend npk well? I think I'm missing something here. My cucumber have not been yielding well since I've started using this npk. And also mix it with urea sometimes just to get better result but still the same. Applying the npk through venturi is even worse. It uses like 2 to 3 days before it dissolves.. Kai. Please if you are getting good result using this npk, show me the way o abeg. I've been looking for wacot, not available. Your ideas and inputs are needed o

vosquare: Although, I have no experience of using Golden Friend, I've heard it said that some of these fertilizers are not up to standard. I use Wacot but it is now difficult to get in my area. I'm also on the lookout for other good brands. I'm surprised your Urea takes that long to dissolve. We use Indorama Urea, and I've found it to be highly soluble, although we apply fertilizers manually. If you're not getting good results with your venturi, have you thought about applying a urea solution as a spray on the plants (though you have to be careful) or using a product like Haifa Bonus, until you can get a good 15-15-15. |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by vosquare: 8:21am On Nov 24, 2019 |
DeLaRue: I don't apply urea through venturi o. What I'm saying is even though I mix urea with the npk and Bury it, it's not giving me good result. When I want to apply the npk through venturi, It takes like 2-3 days before dissolving. The npk nutrients is not just enough |

Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by nxtEinsten: 8:01pm On Nov 24, 2019 |
Instead of switching hoses. you can install 2 air valves ( in the middle of your PVC pipe) and fix the flexible hose in the middle of your divided pipe. You can then control each half of the land by opening the valve to the pipe for the side you want to water while closing the valve to the other side. if this is possible it would save the effort of continuously moving the hose. Just my 2 Kobo thoughts. if I may ask, how frequently do u irrigate in a day and how often per week. okoroemeka: |

sometimes if I am less busy I do use our motobike to tour around farms in my immediate vicinity,I went to a cucumber farm ran by two seriously determined guys,they are using just water pump and hose to irrigate 7000 cucumber crops up to harvesting,for farmers still asking if hose will work this is your answer,it works if you are ready to put in a bit of effort,those two guys will have a merry Xmas because they will have cold cash in their pockets. 2 Likes 1 Share
