nawa oooo, thought you have collected it that same day. Make sure you are pouring clean water with no dirty inside the pump, because the spray guard nozzle is prone to block.

the last thing i will do is plant variety that I don't know,that cucumber looks like a badly managed Murano that is left too long to harvest , poorly staked,poor irrigation and pollination led mostly to the misshapen fruits,I will not blame buyers that run away from that because it will spoil quickly.

To get bees in droves to visit your Farm; simply get original Honey add a moderate quantity to your spray tank containing Water, mix properly and spray it directly on the cucumber or watermelon leaves very early in morning before Sun rise or late in the evening.

cutting bamboo is a very risky and dangerous job that is best left for the professionals,a big mature and tangled bamboo Grove is the deadliest,many of the stands are pressed upon by others and this creates tremendous strain and pressure that is waiting for just one Cutlass stroke for it to lash out with incredible force to maim and disembowel a careless worker,you can even succeed to cut some stands but they will not fall they will be entangled with others just waiting for you to carelessly cut the single stand that is holding all of them,they will Cascade on top of the worker with sharp pointed edge ,iwe call it the widow Maker.

I wish I can like and share hundred times! I like the way you described the potential danger in cutting it, Thanks.pls!!! Nairalander like and share that Mr. Okoroemaka comment. Screen shot already, I know it will serve greater purpose one day, by okoroemaka.

Since there is no Greengo, I option to plant jorad which I did the nursery on Thursday evening. I was told sometimes last week the price of cucumber in Lagos 9k, akure 8k. But the current price in akure now is 7k.

This is what it looks like on the third day. I will transplant it tomorrow. The video on I did it is on my channel and IG now

Good work bro, I watched your video. How many stands will this be on the field?

Please, also upload video of how you transplant, especially how the seedlings are lifted from the seed tray.

Keep it up. Thanks for sharing..

1. 3000 stand 2. Check now it is available.

This is post hole digger. As a cucumber Farmer, if you can afford it buy one, especially if you are cultivating acres or hectares. It will be helpful during raining reason if you want to dig Baboo hole. Check my IG on how to use it.

@ Farmerakinloye.

Thanks for the video.

If I get the chronicle of the events leading to transplanting right.

1. You makes holes for the seedlings.

2. Then you spray the soil with insecticide to kerp off insects ( esp. Variageted grasshopper from cutting the leafs)

3. Then you transplant.

My questions?

1. Can you transplant immediately after spraying the farm with insectide? or you wait for sometime


2. You mentioned 50 ml of insectide poured into knapsack sprayer.. What brand of insectide did you use? Dilution factor, how many MLS to 1 litre of water.?

3. For 3 plots, how many MLS of insecticide will be needed.

Thank you and Keep up the good work......
