Fertilizing my plants in the farm.
Hello my friends in this our lovely community β£οΈ, how is our weekend going on..... π? Hopefully, all is perfectly working as planned, it gives everyone so much joy when aspirations, plans, efforts and our strategies are working out as planned. It adds courage, strength, confidence and resilience to our daily hustle and energy, thereby making us to work more and more without getting tired or stressed.
Please, Keep up your great vibes, @homesteaders πͺ πͺ πββοΈ.
Just before this time around, i decided to add so much efforts to be sure that I'm successful at all my endeavors to make sure that my plants and shrubs yielded crops in the plantations that are qualitative and healthier for a productive results from my farms and gardens.
Therefore, i went as far as adding these crop production boosters to my plants and shrubs believing they will help them to bear bountifull fruits and the resultant effects are not bad at all. By my researches my trying new things, there are clear differences noticed.
My peppe fruits very riped from the tree.
Peppe fruits.
Peppe shrubs added with fertilizer and goat's droppings.
Goats droppings on the roots of my peppe as manure.
Fertilizer
I was applying fertilizer close to the root of the plant.
Insect killers to my crops.
I was applying insecticide to kill off insects eating up my crops.
I'm so glad that these yielded great crops and also helped my plants and shrubs become healthier bearing quality and appreciated crops. Every hustle in life has methods and patterns for us to follow for great and greater excellent achievements.
I was just trying my hands on some of those activities π, I'm very glad, they're working out my desires and expectations π π.
These were the appearances of the crops before i resolved to add these activities to them. You know, really, to be frank, soil fertility and humidity has been badly affected in the recent years, either very low or totally destroyed or completely absent for some years now. That is the attribute of a consistency of cultivation in the same plot of soil or the garden spaces at our homes for a very longer time. Without taking good care of the soil and it's textures.
The land and soil we plant on normally feeds on it's own types of nutrients. whenever the nutrients are totally used up by our previous plants and shrubs, our crops may start yielding weakly... Poor harvest ensures. We need to boost the soil nutrients for better planting and harvests.
On my own, i have noticed, that if some soil boosters are not consciously added to the soil in both our farms and gardens, truly, we may not harvest much or may not get any harvests at all. There's need to take good care of our soil for planting.
One can only try organic production where you are sure the soil has a perfect soil nutrients and humidity enough to help our plantings to bear properly.
If you can quite remember,
Last year, i planted pepper shrubs but never added any fertilizer, i made them in an organic method , but was surprised the pepper shrubs never bore fruits almost at all. That was the lesson that prompted me and persuaded me to do more than that of last year.
I concluded and ensured a better care of my trees and shrubs this year, now the difference is very clear..... You can see them clearly by your self.
In conclusion,
Remember, organic planting of seeds, trees and shrubs must be on the soil that are either naturally or by appliance has soil nutrients and humidity that can be able to sustain your plants in a good direction on the soil, making both the plants and shrubs, fruitful, bearing quality and healthy crops.
When there are no natural nutrients, please add yours to prepare the soil for a quality farm produce.
Are you aware that the land feeds like we the human beings. When the land is well fed, it produces healthier and more quality crops for the owner to enjoy. You can even be able to sale some. Let's help the soil to help our plants and shrubs. Giving you gladness.
Thanking everyone for reading and commenting on my post, let's keep up the vibes.

The peppers are fresh and well grown. I tried planting sometime last year, but it didn't do well. I guess it's the soil or the bowl that I used in planting the pepper
The same happened to me last year, but i insisted planting again this year,
then I added fertilizer when they grew up to a certain hight, they started doing well. Maybe you can try same.
Okay I think fertilizer would do great but I don't know where to get from
Go to those Agro agricultural shops. Those people selling stuffs like, seeds, insecticide, such people also sell fertilizer. You are in Lagos, right?, if it were here in Aba, I would have taken you to where I do buy from.
You can ask people around for such shops, okay....?. Take care.
I've never seen where seeds are sold in Lagos. Maybe I just need to ask one or two persons. People hardly farm in Lagos, so I just hope I'm able to get it around here.
Like how much do I budget just in case?
It really depends on the largeness of your garden or farm and how much they can sell by a measure over there.
You know already that there's a great price difference between us down here in Aba and you guys in Lagos state.
In Aba, where I reside, they measure every thing by an empty big custard container known as paint, both the big size and small has their prices .
But in Lagos you guys measure by mudu so a paint here is bigger than a mudu. So the prices are not the same too.
During planting season I bought a paint of the brand of fertilizer I used at 7,000, a paint. It was an all purpose type. I used it for both my corn, cassava, peppers shrubs, ugu seed, okra.
Then I also bought and sprayed insecticide for killing the insects that were eating up my plants, so that's it.
If you want me to buy for you, I will then ask how much a paint sells for now and tell you but remember you will as well pay for the waybill, so the ball is in your cut.
Thank you and good night.
Thanks for the detailed explanation π. I don't have a garden o, there's no space for such in most places in Lagos. I only planted pepper using a wide bowl π
Those look like some tasty peppers . Hope you enjoy them.
Yes oooo, the peppers have beautiful aroma and as well chilly and tasty, a little of them are just enough for meals.... Thank you.
