ULOG (HOWTO): Extract Botanical Insecicide From Pawpaw Leaves (Contd.)

in ulog •  6 years ago 

Farming is an intresting venture where you learn everyday and at the same time being able to impact positively in the society.

Today in our farm, i was able to learn a technique of grafting i have been yearning to know for a while now. I will take us through the procedure some other time.

I got home quite early today, so i was able to resume my botanical insecticide extraction from pawpaw leaves.

Its past 24hrs now that i airdried the leaves, so i grinded the leaves in a motorized grinder, in other to ease the next stage of soaking the leaves.

The leaves were well grinded and stored in a clean nylon. The next step was to measure 2 litres of water and then soak about 100g of the grinded leaves in it for 24 hours.

I was able to do that and kept the bowl under a shade till tommorow.

Till then, i implore you all to stay tuned for my update tomorrow ifyou can.

Thank you.

You have a minor misspelling in the following sentence:

was able to do that and kept the bowl under a shade till tommorow.
It should be tomorrow instead of tommorow.
