Hello Hive.

I am that farmer that has planted almost everything, cereals and legumes, tubers and vegetables plus a medicinal garden you will see some of the healthy important vegetables I have grown and use in our meals daily.

1. The cereals we have planted in our family farms is maize and guinea corn for this year, last year we added miller as well. Rice was also planted in large quantity.

1. In the legumes family we have planted groundnuts beans and bambara nuts

2. And for vegetables I have fluted pumpkins, spinach, jute mallow, bitter leaves etc.

3. For medicinal plants we have Indian leaves, scent leaves (ocimum gratissimum) lemon grass.

4. And under tubers we have planted
   cassava potatoes, yams, water yams and some other specie of tubers.

You can see that our farms are all encompassing, we have maximized space to plant all these needed food items for the family.

Subsequently I can take you through the pictures and locations of all these plants we have in our farms under this category.

Today is for guinea corn thinning and transplanting.

Thinning is done to reduce the number of guinea corn seedlings per hole such that the rest can have enough space to expand their stems and grow properly.
Usually when guinea corn is planted we often don't count the seeds and as such they grow out in large quantity.

Since transplanting does not hurt the plant, those removed can be transplanted in other spot or farms.

You can reduce the huge bundle here to 3 or 4seedlings per hole
This way we can have a proper growth from now till December when they will be harvested.
