chop down and remove!

yup..it is heart wrenching to cut down a fully mature pawpaw tree with fruits but
Such is Life!

better to sacrifice a couple trees than loose the entire field.
(then try to control any possible vectors)

[Chimera]

i talking about 50% of the field have the disease tho.

lol

no chemical to bring them back from that point?

[hustla_ambition101]

ABA, you don't have an extension officer?

I went by a garden shop for this same problem,only thing was for one tree though.Man tell me try:bioneem,protector,algacin...all mixed together...it worked though but I guess the disease was in developing stages.idk for yours.

As hustla said it could be a mite problem (Red palm mite). Pass your finger along the middle of the under leaf, if it's red then you have a problem.

[S.M.R.E.B.]

Guys...

i am looking for a market to sell eggs right now...looking for meat shops/ groceries/ shops/ etc

preferably in the East...but will be willing to go further if the orders are sufficient.

all sizes available...S/M/L
crates/dozens and halves

PM for details
or
call 708-0101 if interested

[shake d livin wake d dead]

most groceries/shops etc etc tend to ask for documents from health inspectors in relation to what you produce..the best cold storage in the east in Bissram cold storage located in San Lois road Sangre Grande,you could check them.

[S.M.R.E.B.]

opinions from anyone that have used an electric tiller?
need it to till regular yard soil so you know it will be hard with few rocks in it

[shake d livin wake d dead]

that price not bad though^ but I doh like them electric thing nuh..I'd use meh normal hoe or shovel yes

[Chimera]

price not bad but i feel that going to break up easy

if you have a farmers badge you can get 50% off the heavy duty ones they sell locally and also get warranty etc.

you can also rent

[shake d livin wake d dead]

x factor just look at the ratio of gas wackers as opposed to d electric ones,gas is more used so im assuming this may fall in the same category.

[X_Factor]

yeah, i guess the electric is probably designed softer soils and those fancy back yard gardens you see in the US

where can you rent a tiller?

the space is only 20x40 ft

i'll pelt some fork tmr and see how easy it will be considering the soil should be soaked with the lil rain

anyone want a couple chilli and cherry pepper plants?....have about 4 in each

[hong kong phooey]

gas whackers are more popular because they come with bigger engine(more power) and are more portable , you don't need a power plug to run it. it is plenty more expensive to maintain a gas engine.
The reviews are good on that tiller but it might be good enough for a little back garden
