HornyTave: no am not, but will also love to know more about growing cucumbers on a commercial basis, although has anyone used seeds gotten from cucumbers sold in the market to plant before? Was thinking is it a must we buy hybrid seeds or else the plant productions will be of low yield why dont we get seeds from fresh cucumbers as we do with fresh tomato and peppers? |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by HornyTave: 6:55am On Mar 29, 2020 |
mirabel9: Pepper is more diseases resistant than cucumber and pepper also there are lots of cucumber seeds from heirloom to opv, to hybrid and green house varieties. to be on a safer side it is advised to plant hybrids due to it's resistance to diseases and crazy yeilds. I haven't done tomatoes though I'm planning to do tomatoes this year. |

okoroemeka: I believe prices will shoot up... Nigeria cannot lock down because people will die... People will rather be sick than die. Im facing my farming head on boss. I believe foodstuff over fruits will sell, except more generally accepted and cheaper Fruits. Pls can you help me with a reputable seed seller's contact? Thanks. |

Mrkellz:what type of seed do you want? |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 2:27pm On Mar 29, 2020 |
mirabel9:it is better to use proven hybrid seeds for commercial cucumber farm to save yourself from had I known,we have used seeds extracted from ripe cu 999 fruits and replanted,it germinated 90%,the growth was fantastic but the yield was a mess,all the fruits were short and turned yellow like local cucumber before 4 days it could be harvested,it was a total disaster, since then we have had unpleasant experience with even some hybrid varieties that are total flops like monalsa or lion seed forever f1, we don't mess with any unproven variety ,if it is not Murano,,darina or cu 999 I am not interested these 3 varieties has been proven under rainy,dry and harmattan seasons and they stood strong. 1 Like 2 Shares |

okoroemeka: California wonder Tatase Heat and split resistant cabbage. Please do you have experience with California wonder? |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 10:21pm On Mar 29, 2020 |
Mrkellz:California wonder is heirloom or opv and is produced by many seed companies,so it depends on the one you want.tatase from nihort is available,for cabbages that will be tricky,I have a friend that planted Olsen seed Gloria cabbage and it worked like a charm,if you can find that use it. |

Are you sure waybill is still working? |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 4:14pm On Apr 02, 2020 |
tpben:my brother you are correct,I still have some farmers waybills that are trapped by the lockdown, crossing from our side to anambra state is like crossing seme border there are policemen even in the bush paths to restrict movement 24 hours daily,or less you wait till the dust settles. 1 Like |

HornyTave:the law of supply and demand is a fickle mistress,if someone predicted that buyers will be coming from far places looking for cucumbers and other veggies to buy in this current lockdown I will not believe,the only problem with sales of cukes now is the policemen blocking the roads,the demand is strong and price is still good,this are good indicators that market will remain strong through next month because many farmers and labourers ran away to their homes for Corona hibernation. 2 Likes |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by HornyTave: 1:11am On Apr 09, 2020 |
okoroemeka: Regional factor also played a big role. I've seen numerous advert on Facebook lamenting how they'll sell their cukes also I've seen one in the east, still on Facebook. The east is not shutdown unlike the west. I think that's the reason |

HornyTave:my mom is in delta state.. and even in this current lockdown ... shes going to another local government to buy garri today.. was suprised when she told me.. most states in ss and se.. are only observing the interstate lockdown.. talking about staying at home and no coming out is a no go area for them |

okoroemeka: Oga okoroemeka, kindly confirm, this are Okra Hire and Clemson Spineless right? I want to plant some okra and all seeds im seeing is clemson spineless. |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 3:34pm On Apr 21, 2020 |
codeQue:Clemson spineless ,nihort nh-43ae,kirikou are the varieties I know that will be sold before it is even harvested,and the best season for okra is around the corner,target to harvest between july-august okra are usually scarce and costly by that time. 2 Likes 2 Shares |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by OluchiDelly: 6:29pm On Apr 21, 2020 |
codeQue: SW open markets don't like Clemson for reasons best known to them, they only manage to buy it when Hire and other short pods varieties are scarce in the markets, that's usually Feb to April. Let your market dictate what you plant. 1 Like 1 Share |

Please can I plant okra on where I want to plant pepper? because the paper is still on the nursery bed, but I want to make the ridges now and plant okra, (the one of 40 days) 1 Like |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 1:25pm On Apr 23, 2020 |
Ebbybam:well ,the peppers will spend 30 days in nursery and will need transplanting by then the okra will be flowering and I doubt there's any okra variety u harvest in 40 days,but the best alternative is to retrransplant the pepper in single grow bags for more growth till the okra gives up then you transplant the pepper. |

I did a research on cucumber production during my undergraduate years and I can tell you that cucumber production is one sweet business |
Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 8:26pm On Apr 23, 2020 |
Futurejoy:it is sweet if everything worked according to plan,and it will be bitter more than quinine if it didn't work out and you will start to hear the sound of koboko on your back and Monday hammer on your head,and believe me my head has received more hammer blows than I care to remember. 2 Likes |

Re: 500,000 Naira From One Plot Of Land In 90 Days. by okoroemeka(m): 6:34am On Apr 24, 2020 |
Victornezzar:seems you are eager to learn let me give you some insights on the things that has caused total failures on our farm. (1)we have sprayed high dose of insecticide by 1 pm,sun is blasting and a whole 5 weeks farm withered and died in 4 days (2) soil nematodes (3) insufficient and unplanned irrigation (4) reckless application of urea (5) too close density planting (6) using old bamboo and old ropes for staking (7) spraying the oyibo recommend dose of Haifa/450 gram per knapsack ( ![]() |
