that is a 25kg bag,if you look closely you will see kayan gona rice written on it,but the weight of the peppers inside will not be 25kg,maybe 20-22kg,pepper is a very lucrative crop imagine having 1200 pepper stands and harvesting 4-5 bags every 4 -5 days at #10,000 per bag

I'm having this problem with some of my plants, do I leave them be, I should assist it by removing the seed pod

leave it,you will uproot the seedling if u try that,it will pop out on it's own

it doesn't work that way here. pepper farmers are different from sellers. The farms are kilometres away from the town. Another village entirely.

Contact this user for east west seeds 07068278983
, she is located at ibadan

Efia and etna are both habenaro pepper plants
While efia is opv, etna is hybrid..

If you're still a practicing farmer I suggest you go for efia. As it is the most available pepper seed in the market.. and also cheaper compared to etna

I advice you forget about purchasing avenir for now..

emmybiz:

Good morning.

I have read through this thread, thanks to you all for the enlightenment.

I planted an acre of pepper this year, but it ended in collosal lose due to the following
1. Goat invasion (They always eat up my pepper)
2. Poor seed breed (planted a local open market breed, it appeared the same way for 2 months )
3. Nutrition deficiency(I was deceived by villagers that I was planting on a virgin land, used just once 3 years ago) .

I have familiarize myself with pepper farming in the past.

My question is has follows.

Which variety of habenero and bawa is advisable to plant.

Following this thread, I could see avenir f1 is a big mess.

I am considering demon f1 for Bawa. Please who has a testimony of how this variety farewell in South West.

Thanks.

your major problems are goats and poor soil or poor management,even if you plant avenir or any exotic hybrid varieties it will end up the same,your crops are lacking nutrients and that is the main cause of your failures,I have seen instances were seeds are source from ripe matured pods in the open market and processed and it still gave a good account,with proper fertilization program.

Thank you. Although I have started working on how to have a good management system and fertilizer program after reviewing the causes of the failure..

However, do you have any suggestions on the hybrid variety to plant, with intending target market being South West markets.

Psalmy2cute:

I didn't make use of any.

That was one of my biggest mess.

I listened to the local farmers who claim they don't use any fertilizer, and I learnt my lesson in a hard way..

I bought the pepper seedlings from one of them(3,000+), another mistake I made.

They didn't grow beyond the size they were when I bought the seedlings.

its wise in any agric venture your still new in to start small so if you fail the fall will not rattle the ritcher scale,my advice is to scale down from 1 acre to half,use hybrid or proven opv varieties and do the nursery yourself,use organic manure 50/50 with soil in nursery,after transplant apply organic manure in each planting hole and start applying npk 201010+urea fertilizer one plastic spoon each crop every 15 days,any good RED colour habanero or scotch bonnet variety will move market,I can't recommend any variety now the germination issues are playing open monkey with farmers.

Thanks. I know I ought to start small to learn the ropes, but I couldn't afford to wait a whole year.

I will start with 1 plot of land, with 500-700 stands of pepper, and handle it from scratch to finish myself.
