Psalmy2cute: We have not done a total harvest. We only hand picked the riped ones. That gave us a 25kg basket. 98% are still green. 1 Like |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Psalmy2cute(m): 11:24am On Apr 15, 2020 |
codeQue:ok.. you're in ogun state right?? my best bet right now is to wait till may before harvest |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by codeQue: 11:38am On Apr 15, 2020 |
Psalmy2cute: Farm is in Ottu, in Oyo state. Definitely, the 25kg we harvested was sold for 6k locally. With the lockdown, im in Lagos, but fortunately my workers are still at the farm. I cant wait for the lockdown and covid 19 to be over. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Psalmy2cute(m): 11:40am On Apr 15, 2020 |
codeQue: here in ogun state.. that bag would go for 14 to 15k or else we're now having shortage of money in circulation and I'm also aware some locals prefer the local variety to hybrid.. you will sell for higher price in lagos |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by codeQue: 12:31pm On Apr 15, 2020 |
Psalmy2cute: Definitely, first, most of the peppers are yet to ripe. Those that ripen first isint much to hire a vehicle to those destinations, will not be profitable. In the next one or two weeks, when the bulk are ripe, definitely i wont be considering local sales. Who local help ...lol 1 Like |

see the damage done by aphids on my farm.. some of my promising pepper stands now without foliage... though I've dealt with the aphids attack with organic solution.. but it looks like the damage has already been done on some of my plants the plants are still green.. but they're without foliage.. I've checked for nematodes.. but no sign of nematodes.. I diagnose one of the plants.. maybe I'm looking at bacteria wilt.. but no sign of bacteria wilt so I can only conclude.. this is the result of aphids on my farm and the organic solution solution I used seems to be more effective compared to that of chemical

atleast I now know what aphids looks like.. and the nest way to spot them is ants.. ants farm on aphids.. so if you're having black ants on your pepper stand.. theres 90% chance aphids are present 1 Share

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Psalmy2cute(m): 11:11am On Apr 17, 2020 |
now what I dont know is.., will these plants bring out new foliage?? or they're completely dead @ okoroemeka , ogbongonet, FMCASH , Farmtech what do you think?? |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by okoroemeka(m): 11:14am On Apr 17, 2020 |
Psalmy2cute:that is the reason vegetable farms should be checked carefully if you ate spraying two weeks interval,but if you spray weekly I don't see the possibility of aphids surviving a dose of laraforce gold or coursge.,most of the time the organic solution fades quickly with a strong rainfall. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Psalmy2cute(m): 11:48am On Apr 17, 2020 |
okoroemeka: this from the beginning was my mistake.. I've been focusing on bacteria diseases forgetting thyre also insects almost invisible to the eye.. the only insects I've been seeing in my farm are leave cutting insects.. so I assumed all is fine.. no need to be feeding my plants with unnecessary chemicals.. not until now |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Psalmy2cute(m): 11:49am On Apr 17, 2020 |
okoroemeka:but my question is, will these affected plants bring fort new foliage?? or theyll die?? |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by okoroemeka(m): 11:56am On Apr 17, 2020 |
Psalmy2cute:don't worry they will bring out even fresher foliage,just apply urea fertilizer and spray a mixture of fungicide,foliar fertilizer and systemic insecticide on the whole crop,pepper is a resilient crop,there is a site we planted pepper this time last year and I went to clear the land for other projects to see the crops fully regenerated and fruiting,how it managed to survive the dry season and harmattan I cannot understand. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Psalmy2cute(m): 11:59am On Apr 17, 2020 |
okoroemeka:today I wanted to do exactly what you said... but the lockdown did not permit me.. but I've instructed my worker on exactly what you've just said |
