How to farm tomato day 1, nurse the seed with just cocopeat, seedlings tray and water.

I did the nursery using seed, cocopeat,water and seedlings tray, no manure or fertilizer. I cover it with net to avoid disturbance from lizard or rat. more coming, pls subscribe and share!!!

Quite an amazing job you've done here sir. Do you setup greenhouses for people

[@FarmerAkinloye]

No sir!

[@SandraYeboah-il1cp]

Hi good work bro. As you keep the nursery in the net. do you still spray them with insecticides n fungicides before removing them to transplant

[@FarmerAkinloye]

I don't spray any insecticide or fungicide on it. This video is when I just start cultivating tomato, now I have greenhouse for raising my seedlings which is best. If you can afford it I will advise you to build one.

[@SandraYeboah-il1cp]

Ok sir. Thank you

[@obianujunwako33]

Good day sir and thanks for your video, i learnt alot. I have a few questions (1) can you nurse your seedlings using seedtrays and coco peat inside the house? (2) if i do my nursery outside, what happens on a rainy cold night, will it affect the seedlings?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

To nurse healthy and uniform seedling you need to build nursery house which will be cover with green house ( UV) cover. Check my tomato playlist to see it.

[@obianujunwako33]

Thank you for your apt response. Does rain and cold weather affect a nursery house

[@FarmerAkinloye]

@obianujunwako33 yes

[@maryamsani3160]

Weldone,did you buffer the cocopeat before you using it

[@FarmerAkinloye]

I do not.

[@NahoLovesYou]

How many trays can you fill with a block of cocopeat?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

Depends...let me say 20-18 seedlings tray

[@Ayo-pz6rq]

How many cells is your seedlings tray and which is the best to use between 128 and 200 cells

[@FarmerAkinloye]

128 cells

[@NahoLovesYou]

How many plots can you plant with 10g of Platinum 701 F1 at 30cm spacing? My Calculation shows roughly a plot but I just want to confirm from someone with real data.

[@FarmerAkinloye]

1.5 plot if you are going 30cm by 1.2m (furrow 1.2meter)

[@toyosioladayo564]

Is 30cm the best spacing or 50cm sir?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

50cm is the best but I always use 30cm.

Do you remove the net when wetting it or you pour it from above it

[@FarmerAkinloye]

If you can do the whalla, you can always remove net before wetting. I always wet with the net on it.

How does seedlings stays in trays

[@FarmerAkinloye]

It is simple, sow the seed, place the seedlings tray on fertile soil and water it.

[@babatundeodewale2789]

How do you water this

[@FarmerAkinloye]

With wetting can, I will advise you go through all video in my tomato playlist.

[@error-ti1us]

After putting seeds in seedling tray do we have to keep it in shady area or just can put in full sunlight right now its a sept month and temperature is upto 40

[@FarmerAkinloye]

Best is to have nursery house with green house cover. Full sunlight is not good for seedlings, however your seedlings need worm/heat to do well

[@oyebolaadepoju8798]

Can I put the seedling tray in poultry house since I didn't have green house

[@FarmerAkinloye]

Not necessary to have complete green house, you can buy little green cover like 3-4 meters square, and do small area for nursery. I can not guarantee poultry house for tomato seedling.

[@error-ti1us]

@@FarmerAkinloye that's ok but why r u replying after 6 months of comment no one is that busy

[@FarmerAkinloye]

I will be more prompt now!

[@muktaradeleye140]

how do you keep your seedlings during nursery, is it only under tree with net ?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

I don't put under net again. I do spray the surrounding though because of insects. Why I put under net is because of rat.

[@user-tx7vt9md8x]

Which insecticide do you use sir

[@FarmerAkinloye]

Avesthrin, caterpillar force and imiforce.

[@Ayo-pz6rq]

U didn't wet after sowing the seed right?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

I wet it once in a day... though depend on the temperature. Sometimes I wet twice why sometimes I don't wet through out a day.

[@kingsleyamponsah835]

Pls do u apply fertilizer at nursery and at what week

[@FarmerAkinloye]

I don't apply fertilizer, however, you apply little (30ml per 16lit) dosage of foliar fertilizer, seven days after germination, once in a week.

[@user-tx7vt9md8x]

Please sir do you mean seven days after transplanting

[@FarmerAkinloye]

Yes.. between 3-7 days.

[@scientificmaths]

Boss weldone sir. Pls how many holes are there in a planting pots?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

[@scientificmaths]

@@FarmerAkinloye thanks sir. Is there a difference in the planting pot and the seedlings tray? How much can we get one. How can one also get cocopeat?

[@akandeakintayoamos1872]

Can one use sawdust in place of the cocopeat?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

Don't try it... your seed will not survive it!

[@akandeakintayoamos1872]

@@FarmerAkinloye but why?

[@FarmerAkinloye]

The nutrient it will produce is poisonous to plants.

[@simpory]

Secondly, how much sunlight should the nursery be expose to

[@FarmerAkinloye]

You need just little sunlight at seedlings stage.
