Victornezzar:what's the farm size,type of crop, distance of borehole to farm,? |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Victornezzar: 7:30pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
okoroemeka:An acre but I intend setting up 8000 plants for a start Cucumber The borehole will be situated in the farm |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by okoroemeka(m): 8:07pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
Victornezzar:what you need is one roll 1 inch hose and stepped down to another roll of 3/4 pipe it will cover the farm,but make sure you have a reliable power source and a strong worker because he will stand for not less than 4-5 hrs before an acre will be irrigated,it only needs guts to dare,we currently have 12,000 crops at 3 weeks we used hose for irrigation every other day. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Victornezzar: 8:11pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
okoroemeka:Thanks a lot boss How much do you think the process will cost |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by veggieman2be(m): 8:16pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
Intendy:How effective is Lara force contact insecticide and Zforce fungicide. Thanks |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by okoroemeka(m): 8:32pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
Victornezzar:if you must use hose then you will plan to use the hole system for good water retention,1 inch hose #11,000 naira,3/4 hose #9,000 k,you must have generator in case power fails,fuel #1,000 to water one acre at a time,make available contingency money in case borehole pump fails. 1 Like |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by Victornezzar: 8:34pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
okoroemeka:I heard digging of the borehole is expensive |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by veggieman2be(m): 8:40pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
okoroemeka:Really. Is setting up irrigation system for an acre this cheap. Or am I missing something that's a total of #19,000 excluding fuel. I need more clarification Thanks |

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by FarmTech(m): 10:45pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
Psalmy2cute:. Less than 4 plots. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by FarmTech(m): 11:02pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
veggieman2be:. They're all effective if u use them well. Generally, u don't just make use of 1 pesticide over and over. Use at least 2 or 3 with different MOA (modes of action). That way, pests and diseases won't get use to them. Laraforce is a pyrethroid insecticides. Other members of that family includes cypermethrin, deltamethrin, tefluthrin etc. See a huge list of insecticide moa here: https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/pi121 It is better to combine Zforce with a systemic fungicide like hexaconazole, strobilurin etc. Zforce is just a protectant fungicide - it protects uninfected leaves. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by FarmTech(m): 11:03pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
okoroemeka:. Thanks. Which type of bag? |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by austinomd(m): 11:57pm On Apr 24, 2020 |
Please I'd like to ask a question, from your experience in growing okro, does it attract disease to other plants if intercroped? I'm asking because I planted okro on a plot and later added some ugu, the ugu are showing signs of fungal and bacteria diseases all over their leaves, while the okro are still fine after an early stage attack from aphids, someone said the diseases on the ugu is as a result of intercropping with Okro, how true is this I don't know, hence the need for my questions, experts in the house kindly help FarmTech: |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by okoroemeka(m): 5:24am On Apr 25, 2020 |
FarmTech:vital feed bag |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by bassey25(m): 7:45am On Apr 25, 2020 |
Please can I use tin can( eg.peak milk tin) for making pepper nursery? I have about 500 pieces of them. Think if I can use them. Please urgent reply |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by FarmTech(m): 8:43am On Apr 25, 2020 |
austinomd:. I haven't grew that intercrop b4. Prune out those diseased leaves. Can u post a picture? |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by FarmTech(m): 8:44am On Apr 25, 2020 |
okoroemeka:. Ok thanks. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by FarmTech(m): 8:47am On Apr 25, 2020 |
bassey25:. You can but I don't think it is the best. The cans will rust with time and making drain holes will be harder. Why not sow on a nursery bed and later transplant to single grow bags or even pure water satchets. |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by numen(m): 9:29am On Apr 25, 2020 |
Hi, Is there a reason to transplant to grow bags first instead of directly to soil? FarmTech: |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by bassey25(m): 6:04pm On Apr 25, 2020 |
FarmTech: Thanks for your advice... The issue is I have already planted on nursery bed and they are four weeks old now.. So I have been thinking if should transfer them to cans as medium for single grow since nursery bags isn't readily available here in my area and I have am t of cans. Is it still good if I transfer them to the cans ? |
Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by okoroemeka(m): 6:49pm On Apr 25, 2020 |
veggieman2be:the clarification you need is planning your farm from the beginning to work with hose and pump,if the land needs ridges then the holes must be done on top of the ridges but if the soil is a well draining type then it can be done straight on the ground without any further preamble,this are the pics of two farms we have now ,the grown one is on one acre while the smaller ones are on half acre all irrigated with hose. 2 Likes

Thank you. FarmTech: |

Re: 30k Twice A Week From My Pepper Farm by veggieman2be(m): 2:27pm On Apr 26, 2020 |
okoroemeka:Thank you Sir. But I can't see any hose running through or will it be introduced later Thanks |
