Using cocopeat with manure to raise your nursery plants.

This video is an update to an old video we did 3 years ago. We keep learning and we have now seen that using manure gives us a much better result when raising our seedlings.
Enjoy your watch!!!
Thanks

It's really great seeing farmers here in Nigeria on KZbin. Now I can learn from folks with same weather and environmental conditions as me!😆 I'm a backyard gardener tho!

[@kunzski]

you are spot on

[@taiwooluwatosin1825]

Nice one Mr. Kunle, I was also part of your student about 3years ago. Keep doing the good job sir. Mind you our sweet corn is growing faster beyond expectation. All this can be achieved with the knowledge and skill you impacted in us then. You're such as an hero and would definitely move Agric sector to the highest point. I daff my cap for you. Weldon sirrrrrrr.

Interesting as long as the manures not hot your good to go . I use a big plastic tub like 15 gallons size or so drop block and cover with water in 10 minutes its ready to break apart I remove some peat to get the larger fibers just 1 rinse i like some peat because i water less with some left behind. I dont charge my peat with cal mag i will start feeding seedlings light doses of fertilizer after a week, this is all for ganja :)P coco is the BEST!

Nice idea

[@kunzski]

Thanx

[@tyee.5023]

Love this! Is your manure finished or fresh??

[@kunzski]

I really don't undertand your question. We use cured and fully decomposed manure

[@user-pd7qv9xm8w]

Hi have done one on water melon

[@kunzski]

I don't understand your question

[@adelakunabiodun6394]

Kudos Sir, this is awesome and educative clip, please is there any chemical to apply during nursery stage, I mean within that first to third weeks of nursery.... Thanks

[@kunzski]

I usually try and keep pesticides away throughout my nursery period but I know that there are times they are needed. Apply as mildly as you can of the need arises

[@MabuzaEugene]

Im a farmer In Swaziland next to south Africa, help us with day to day management seedlings... I bout trays and compost mix , gemination was gud but no true leaves coming instead plants turn purple I eventually threw them away, next I added soil and manure and desolved granule fertilisers, first true leaves came they were dark green and promising , they stopped growing while their counterparts on seed beds flourished, I gave up then on seed trays,

[@kunzski]

Check the PH of your media. It could be that the PH is too high and this will hinder plant growth. Which crop where you attempting to grow???

[@rogersyoung6422]

thanks for the email sir I hope I'm not meeting this video late

[@kunzski]

Naaa. You are always on time

[@progresspasi]

Thank you so much ,i was worried with my seedlings i did plant them using cocopeat without mixing so they are not growing well what can i do now to make them grow which fertilizer i can use

[@kunzski]

Soak cured manure in water and filter out the water. Use this water to irrigate going forward. Thank me afterwards.

[@yusuflawal1145]

Well done sir. What is size of the raw manure mixed? Keep up the good work. Thanks.

[@kunzski]

same qty as the cocopeat after adding water

[@sundaybabalola8957]

Thanks for this, how much is the cocpeat now pls, and how many 5k can go for 3000 seeds.

Let's chat on WhatsApp. [phone]

[@muktaradeleye140]

Weldone Boss. when I added manure to my cocopeat I had a very low germination. please what could cause this

[@kunzski]

I wish you could share the pictures with me. What type of manure did you use? Was it cured manure???

[@josephatunde8465]

What is cured manure

[@kunzski]

Cured manure is fully decomposed animal waste

[@jkbillionaire]

is there any need to sieve the manure before adding to the Cocopeat.?

[@kunzski]

what are u planning to sieve away. Everything in there will be broken down ultimately and be ueful for the plant and eventual soil

[@euniceeludoyin4156]

Hi Mr Kunle, where do u locate, I need coco peat for my backpack garden I leave in Obasanjo road Otta I need it for January I will like to order it in advance.

[@kunzski]

Hello Eunice, thanks for reaching out. Our store is at Epe, Lagos. you can reach me faster on [phone]

[@iduhawhotu8382]

Afternoon sir, pls can one use super grow to mix the cocopeat as fertiliser in place of chicken manure .

[@kunzski]

I wouldn't advise that. Super grow in itself is not a fertiliser but rather a stimulant for the plant to take in food. Its like humans taking in vitamin B Complex to stimaute eating.

[@kunzski]

You need to actually had a rich food source

[@iduhawhotu8382]

Okay sir thanks God bless you 🙏

[@kunzski]

God bless you too

[@Evangmaybinpka]

What quantity of manure should be used for 1 block?

[@kunzski]

Equal ratio. 50:50

[@techinnovations822]

Good work sir pls how do I use the cocopeat with 15 15

[@kunzski]

i did a video on this

[@nattyworld5464]

Please how do you treat to cure ur manure from smelling

[@kunzski]

It's a natural process which can be accelerated. You can search for videos on KZbin on how to do this.

[@udemeinyang2743]

How do I get the cocopeat please

[@kunzski]

you can get the cocopeat from our store at Epe and we can waybill to you wherever you are inthe country. pls call or whatsapp on [phone]

[@ngoziok9924]

How many cell trays are these please

[@kunzski]

This are 128 cell trays. These size of trays are what i will recommend for tomatoes, peppers etc. Smaller tray like 200 cell tend to restrain the roots from proper development and larger ones like 104 cells are just an extra and unnecesaary waste of cocopeat and soil substrate. larger holes will be needed oonly if you are planning to keep the plants in the trays longer than 5 weeks for tomatoes or 6 weeks for peppers

[@kunzski]

the 200 cells are better for short crops like lettuce, cabbage onions etc that wont use long time in the nursery. you can contact us if you want to buy the trays. Our office line is [phone]
