hey aman,
damn, i really have no idea about germination and growing the little baby plants.
where are u germinating the seeds? in the PH or outside?
are the trays all kept together or in a single row? just a general observation, the nursery (germinators) keep the trays together, meaning they will make a column of 5 trays and then keep adding rows.
i have always noticed that plants on the side/edges are slow compared to the plants in the middle. this i have noticed, at both, germination stage (until plantation) and during growing the plants in the PH as well.
are you watering the plants properly and regularly? what you have used in the media is also responsible for wilting.
Hey Vertical,
similar clamp we saw in the video you posted right?
plz do update about the price. i too am interested in them. and work out a bulk deal, we can place combined order
kills a variety of organisms, including some that are beneficial, in addition to the target pest.
This is like taking average,We will miss out many micro benefits. as It may also eradicate beneficial organisms .
[quote]- difference between a “Contact” molecule and “Systematic” molecule?
[/quote]
Contact molecule are not taken up to the plant tissues, Only work in the area of deposition.Whereas Systemic molecule can redistribute from upper surface of the leaf to the lower surface and can also move up the plant. basically can reach the vessel levels of the Plant.
To my understanding most pathogen obtain multiple drug resistance and cross resistance.
but systemic molecules works better as contact will be washed away by irrigation,rain,sunlight need to be applied multiple times, whereas systemic can Due to their ability to penetrate plant can possess both preventive and curative activity Need some expert advice.
Contact should be used when initial stage of plant growth and start using systemic during fruiting stage.
It does not perform on all climate condition . But have no practical experience
At last making your own molecule Even garlic extract is one its produce allicin when crushed and works as a great fungicide.
m going them in PH
all the trays are kept in a row
watering is being regularly,for the media i have used cocopeat and nothing else.
probably, thats the reason its not holding the water at all and the plants are in dry most of the time. i have started watering them twice in a day with help of gardeners can.
hey vertical,
great going!
well… would like to add some bits.
contact pesticide works when it comes in contact with the pest/problem we are trying to control.
so me, i use systematic in preventive more, and contact on corrective. ofcourse thats initially, when the problem is major (like the current fungal attack) i start using both.
then there is no such rule that contact need to be used initially and systematic during fruiting stage. if you are considering the residue, then its a different story.
there are various products in the market for every pest. but then some products work well in certain conditions, and give better results.
and yes, most growers make their own extracts. onion, garlic, chillies etc. pests can be controlled with such extracts initially, when the problem is limited to 5-10 plants. but when its more, its hard, so some chemical needs to be introduced.
You r right, But that’s why i said Cross resistance on pest will become a major problem, So we should start with some kinda method to
make plants Immune much stronger , Rather than using more of these Ch ems .
Contact will work better If u use for a specific reason, Its more like bleaching the face for a party, will only give u temp solution.In India Government are more concern on Fertilizer control than Pest Control system. We use 70% of the pest control Chemicals which are banned world wide , Where as we have a control system on NPK .
Hope all of us join to gather and create a great future for Agriculture World.
Many start with Nobel cause and END up Commercial. ITS ALL MONEY HONEY .
But i was happy to see few people who are like minded (Chandara,Viks,Aman,AK,prash… and hope more) Lets share what we know and make Knowledge available for Free (Real) .This should make at-least the future farming generation not get looped to the middle men.
I just checked with a supplier he said he can get it at the cost of 6500-7000 INR. and said it will cost only 18 paisa for each sting further.
and also says we can finish one acre clipping in 8 hrs with 1 labour .He said some of his customers are using this for capsicum and tomato.
what i thought was use the plastic clip found bellow to get hooked with the sting and plant and for vertical clipping use the staple gun .
Great job !!!
Ok that means it will a day’s job for a single labour to tie an acre capsicum, 7000 INR sounds great, what about its refilling, i mean the tape and stapler pins
does he have that available .
because i have seen, in all the speciality items. usually their is no after sales service. just check on that please. Can he give us the contact no. of the farmer who is using this ?
how much are the hooks costing and which material strings are you planning to buy, have you got the rates for them anywhere ?
I spoke to a guy call Avinash and His number is 9414068821 ,He is from Jaipur, He is got both the sting and the Tape stapler .
Tape Stapler is 6500-7000
and refill costing works to 18paisa
and the plastic clip cost 1.25 .
He sells both but he recommends the stapler.
I see the stapler little expensive as it cost only 30 $ in Taiwan . so we should be able to source it at much better cost if worked on and same with clips which is 3 times the actual cost from China.
I am working on finding more manufacturers than suppliers,
I dont have the farmers number but he did say some big name (Industrial Farmer) If you call him after monday i sure he will provide all information, Sounds to be a friendly guy over Phone. Since he was in mid of the farmers exhibition in jaipur he was not able to talk well, said he will mail me more pictures and other details by Monday.
