6 SWEDE – 6.100 - PLANT FACTS and VARIETIES  

 
Swedes and turnip are from the brassica family, also root fruit. The introduction of disease resistant varieties has this vegetable even easier to grow. All you have to do is to sprinkle some seeds in late spring or summer, thin a view week later and then lift the large globular roots as you need them. Few other crops are quite so straightforward. Swedes are closely related to turnips (Swedish Turnip) but the flesh is generally yellow and the flavour both milder and sweeter.
There are other differences – the plants are hardier, the yields are greater, and the growing period is longer.
 
VARIETIES:
MARIAN:  
It has all the plus points - high yields, good flavour and texture with the bonus of resistance to club root and mildew.
BEST OF ALL:
You will find this purple-skinned yellow-fleshed variety in many catalogues
Very hardy and reliable.
LIZZY:
This resent introduction is claimed to have a better flavour than this other varieties. Slow to run to seed.
RUBY:
Like Lizzy, this new swede has been bred for extra sweetness. More resistant than most to powdery mildew.
WESTERN PERFECTION:
The reputation of this variety is based on its quick -growing nature. The purple-topped roots have yellow flash.
ACME:
Another purple-topped variety which is quick growing like western Perfection.

Swedes na turnip ni kutoka kwa familia ya brassica, pia matunda ya mizizi. Kuanzishwa kwa aina zinazostahimili magonjwa kuna mboga hii hata rahisi kukuza. Unachohitajika kufanya ni kunyunyiza mbegu mwishoni mwa majira ya kuchipua au kiangazi, punguza mwonekano wiki moja baadaye na kisha uinulie mizizi mikubwa ya globula kadri unavyohitaji. Mazao mengine machache ni ya moja kwa moja. Wasweden wana uhusiano wa karibu sana na turnip (Zabibu ya Uswidi) lakini nyama kwa ujumla ni ya manjano na ladha yake ni laini na tamu zaidi.
Kuna tofauti nyingine - mimea ni ngumu zaidi, mavuno ni makubwa, na kipindi cha kukua ni cha muda mrefu.
 
AINA MBALIMBALI:
MARIAN:
Ina pointi zote muhimu - mavuno ya juu, ladha nzuri na texture na ziada ya upinzani dhidi ya mizizi ya klabu na koga.
BORA KULIKO YOTE:
Utapata aina hii ya rangi ya zambarau-njano katika katalogi nyingi
Imara sana na ya kuaminika.
LIZZY:
Utangulizi huu wa hasira unadaiwa kuwa na ladha bora kuliko aina hii nyingine. Polepole kukimbia kwa mbegu.
RUBY:
Kama Lizzy, mswidi huyu mpya amekuzwa kwa utamu zaidi. Inastahimili zaidi kuliko nyingi kwa ukungu wa unga.
UKAMILIFU WA MAGHARIBI:
Sifa ya aina hii inategemea asili yake ya kukua haraka. Mizizi yenye rangi ya zambarau ina flashi ya manjano.
ACME:
Aina nyingine ya rangi ya zambarau ambayo inakua haraka kama Ukamilifu wa magharibi.

Thin out the crop as soon as the seedlings are large enough to handle. Do this in stages until the plants are 9 in. apart.
Keep the soil hoed and remember to water in dry weather – failure to do so will result in smaller and woodier roots. Rain following a dry spell cause roots to split.
Spray with MORGANIC SEAWEAD fertilizer at the first signs of flea beetle’s damage.  
SOIL FACTS
Swedes are brassicas and like other members of the family need a firm, non-acid soil which has reasonable drainage.
Pick a sunny spot and dig in autumn, Lime if necessary. In spring apply Grow more fertilizer. Prepare the seedbed a week later. Apply a nematode-based insecticide if cabbage root fly is known to be a problem.

HARVEST
Beginn lifting as soon as the roots are large enough to use. And there is no need to wait until they reach their maximum size. You can leave them into the soil and lift with a fork as required. But it may be more convenient to lift them indoors for later use.
The storage technique is to twist off the leaves and plays the roots between layers of dry peat or sand in a stout box. Store in a cool shed.
 
IN THE KITCHEN
Swede is generally acceptable as an ingredient for stews, casseroles and soups. They are also used by fish and meat as vegetable. And also mixed with potatoes as dishes.
 
STORAGE
Keep unpeeled in a cool and dry place. Swedes will stay fresh for around 5 days.  
 
COOKING
Remove the tops and roots - peel thickly until yellow flesh is reached. Boiling and mashing is the traditional method of cooking.

MAVUNO
Anza kuinua mara tu mizizi inapokuwa kubwa ya kutosha kutumia. Na hakuna haja ya kusubiri hadi kufikia ukubwa wao wa juu. Unaweza kuwaacha kwenye udongo na kuinua kwa uma kama inavyotakiwa. Lakini inaweza kuwa rahisi zaidi kuziinua ndani ya nyumba kwa matumizi ya baadaye.
Mbinu ya kuhifadhi ni kupotosha majani na kucheza mizizi kati ya tabaka za peat kavu au mchanga kwenye sanduku ngumu. Hifadhi kwenye jokofu baridi.
 
JIKONI
Kiswidi kwa ujumla kinakubalika kama kiungo cha kitoweo, casseroles na supu. Pia hutumiwa na samaki na nyama kama mboga. Na pia kuchanganywa na viazi kama sahani.
 
HIFADHI
Weka bila kusafishwa mahali pa baridi na kavu. Wasweden watakaa safi kwa takriban siku 5.
 
KUPIKA
Ondoa sehemu za juu na mizizi - peel nene hadi nyama ya manjano ifikiwe. Kuchemsha na kusaga ni njia ya jadi ya kupikia.

he A-Z of growing passion fruits to harvest 15 tons from every hectare
Passion fruit, a climbing vine, is a versatile crop whose demand is growing in both export and domestic markets.
The fruit can be eaten fresh or consumed after extracting the pulp and making juice.
The juice is used in a variety of products and the pulp may be added to different dishes. A wide range of cosmetic products and food flavours are derived from the fruit that is rich in Vitamins A and C and carotene.
Varieties
Yellow and purple types exist. Purple varieties do better at higher altitudes than the yellow types. Yellow types, on the other hand, tend to yield higher and are more resistant to diseases.
The purple variety is acidic, varies in taste and juiciness with intense aromatic scent and round in shape. The yellow variety is bigger, with similar taste but possibly less aromatic, more acidic and is also round in shape.
Both varieties are green before ripening, and they are grown for commercial and domestic purposes.

Matunda ya Passion, mzabibu unaopanda, ni zao lenye matumizi mengi ambalo mahitaji yake yanaongezeka katika soko la nje na la ndani.
Tunda linaweza kuliwa likiwa mbichi au kuliwa baada ya kukamua massa na kutengeneza juisi.
Juisi hutumiwa katika bidhaa mbalimbali na kunde kunaweza kuongezwa kwa sahani tofauti. Bidhaa mbalimbali za vipodozi na ladha za chakula zinatokana na matunda yenye vitamini A na C na carotene.
Aina mbalimbali
Kuna aina za manjano na zambarau. Aina za zambarau hufanya vizuri zaidi katika mwinuko wa juu kuliko aina za njano. Aina za njano, kwa upande mwingine, huwa na mavuno ya juu na ni sugu zaidi kwa magonjwa.
Aina ya zambarau ni tindikali, inatofautiana katika ladha na juiciness na harufu kali ya kunukia na sura ya pande zote. Aina ya manjano ni kubwa zaidi, yenye ladha inayofanana lakini pengine haina harufu nzuri, yenye asidi zaidi na pia ina umbo la duara.
Aina zote mbili ni za kijani kabla ya kukomaa, na hupandwa kwa madhumuni ya kibiashara na ya nyumbani.

Ecological requirements
Passion fruits do well in a wide range of altitudes from 1,200m to 1,800m above sea level East of the Rift Valley and up to 2,000m above sea level West of the Rift valley.
Optimum temperature for purple passion fruit is between 18° C to 25° C and 25° C to 30° C for yellow passion fruit while the rainfall should be well-distributed, between 900 mm to 2,000 mm per year.

Excess rainfall causes poor fruit set and encourages diseases mainly leaf and fruit rusts. For good production, passion fruits do well in a variety of soils, which should be reasonably deep and fertile with soil pH ranging between 6.0 and 6.5.
In high rainfall areas, the soils should be well-drained as plants will not withstand waterlogging or flooding. Some passion fruit enterprises that were doing well in Uasin Gishu County some five years ago collapsed because of soil acidity (pH < 5.0), which reduces nutrient uptake and accelerates Fusarium wilt disease that causes rotting of roots and stems finally drying of the whole plant. Farmers are encouraged to apply manure and lime in the holes and whole field to reduce the soil acidity effects.

Planting and trellising
Passion fruit can be grown from seeds but grafting often produces improved stock. Yellow passion fruit is best for production of rootstock because of superior disease resistance while purple is good for fruit production.
Seeds germinate in four weeks after removal of the pulp and drying. Production of seedlings in plastic bags is the most used method.
Up to three seeds are planted in each bag and then thinned to one after emergence. Seedlings will require up to four months to reach a suitable transplanting growth stage. After about seven weeks of growth following transplanting, each plant should have up to four healthy lateral stems.
Transplanting should be done at the beginning of the rainy season around April-June. Passion fruit has deep roots, so soils should be well-tilled. Transplant to a field with posts having wire trellis to support the growing crop and fruits produced.
The vines are usually directed so that growth is in both directions along the supporting wires. Yields are highest following a regular fertilization regime. Old or dead shoots should be pruned. Intercropping with vegetables or other annuals is recommended to utilize free space especially when the crop is young.
Once established, the vines grow rapidly and the fruit should flower after about seven months. Ideally, young passion vines should be set in the field early in the growing season after there is no danger of drought.

Passion vines are planted 2m from one row to the other and 3m from one plant to the other. Horizontal trellises have cross-pieces at the top of each post with two to four wires strung horizontally 60cm apart along the top of each cross-piece.
Vertical trellises consist of heavy posts without cross-pieces, with two to three wires strung along the row like barbed wire fencing, attached to the posts from the top down at intervals of about 30-40cm apart.
Trellis wires should be size 9 or 10 galvanized steel. The posts need to be stout enough to withstand the weight of the vines and fruits produced throughout a season that normally includes the buffeting of strong winds. Ideally, they should be long enough to provide a trellis height of 1.5m, with 45-75 cm in the ground. Trellis rows should be oriented north-south for maximum exposure to sunlight, and the vines should be allowed to grow together along the trellises to promote cross-pollination

Mahitaji ya kiikolojia
Matunda ya Passion hufanya vizuri katika miinuko mingi kutoka 1,200m hadi 1,800m juu ya usawa wa bahari Mashariki ya Bonde la Ufa na hadi 2,000m juu ya usawa wa bahari Magharibi mwa bonde la Ufa.
Joto bora zaidi kwa tunda la zambarau la passion ni kati ya 18° C hadi 25° C na 25° C hadi 30° C kwa tunda la passion ya manjano wakati mvua inapaswa kusambazwa vizuri, kati ya 900 mm hadi 2,000 mm kwa mwaka.
Mvua nyingi husababisha mkusanyiko duni wa matunda na huchochea magonjwa hasa kutu ya majani na matunda. Kwa uzalishaji mzuri, matunda ya passion hufanya vyema katika aina mbalimbali za udongo, ambao unapaswa kuwa na kina kirefu na chenye rutuba na pH ya udongo kati ya 6.0 na 6.5.
Katika maeneo yenye mvua nyingi, udongo unapaswa kuwa na unyevu wa kutosha kwani mimea haitastahimili mafuriko au mafuriko. Baadhi ya biashara za matunda aina ya passion ambazo zilikuwa zikifanya vyema katika Kaunti ya Uasin Gishu miaka mitano iliyopita zilianguka kwa sababu ya asidi ya udongo (pH <5.0), ambayo hupunguza uchukuaji wa virutubishi na kuharakisha ugonjwa wa mnyauko Fusarium ambao husababisha kuoza kwa mizizi na shina hatimaye kukauka kwa mmea wote. Wakulima wanahimizwa kuweka samadi na chokaa kwenye mashimo na shamba zima ili kupunguza athari za asidi ya udongo.
Kupanda na trellising
Matunda ya Passion yanaweza kukuzwa kutoka kwa mbegu lakini kupandikiza mara nyingi hutoa hisa iliyoboreshwa. Tunda la passion ya manjano ni bora zaidi kwa uzalishaji wa vizizi kwa sababu ya upinzani bora wa magonjwa wakati zambarau ni nzuri kwa uzalishaji wa matunda.
Mbegu huota katika wiki nne baada ya kuondolewa kwa massa na kukausha. Uzalishaji wa miche kwenye mifuko ya plastiki ndiyo njia inayotumika zaidi.
Hadi mbegu tatu hupandwa katika kila mfuko na kisha kupunguzwa hadi moja baada ya kuota. Miche itahitaji hadi miezi minne kufikia hatua inayofaa ya ukuaji wa kupandikiza. Baada ya takriban wiki saba za ukuaji baada ya kupandikiza, kila mmea unapaswa kuwa na hadi mashina manne ya upande yenye afya.
Kupandikiza inapaswa kufanywa mwanzoni mwa msimu wa mvua karibu Aprili-Juni. Matunda ya mateso yana mizizi ya kina, kwa hivyo udongo unapaswa kulimwa vizuri. Pandikiza kwenye shamba lenye nguzo zenye wire trellis ili kusaidia mazao yanayokua na matunda yanayozalishwa.
Mizabibu kawaida huelekezwa ili ukuaji uwe katika pande zote mbili kando ya waya zinazounga mkono. Mavuno ni ya juu zaidi kufuatia utaratibu wa kawaida wa mbolea. Shina za zamani au zilizokufa zinapaswa kukatwa. Kupanda mseto na mboga mboga au mimea mingine ya kila mwaka inashauriwa kutumia nafasi ya bure hasa wakati mazao yakiwa machanga.
Baada ya kuanzishwa, mizabibu hukua haraka na matunda yanapaswa kuchanua baada ya miezi saba. Kimsingi, mizabibu michanga ya shauku inapaswa kuwekwa shambani mapema katika msimu wa ukuaji baada ya kutokuwa na hatari ya ukame.
Mizabibu ya mateso hupandwa 2m kutoka mstari mmoja hadi mwingine na 3m kutoka mmea mmoja hadi mwingine. Miteremko ya mlalo ina vipande-pande juu ya kila nguzo na nyaya mbili hadi nne zilizounganishwa kwa mlalo 60cm kando ya sehemu ya juu ya kila kipande cha msalaba.
Miteremko ya wima ina nguzo nzito zisizo na vipande vya kuvuka, na nyaya mbili hadi tatu zilizofungwa kando ya safu kama uzio wa nyaya zenye miiba, zikiwa zimeunganishwa kwenye nguzo kutoka juu kwenda chini kwa vipindi vya umbali wa 30-40cm.
Waya za trellis zinapaswa kuwa za ukubwa wa 9 au 10 za mabati. Machapisho yanahitaji kuwa magumu vya kutosha kustahimili uzito wa mizabibu na matunda yanayozalishwa katika msimu mzima ambayo kwa kawaida hujumuisha kupigwa na upepo mkali. Kwa kweli, zinapaswa kuwa na urefu wa kutosha kutoa urefu wa trelli ya 1.5m, na cm 45-75 ardhini. Safu za trellis zinapaswa kuelekezwa kaskazini-kusini kwa mwangaza wa juu zaidi wa jua, na mizabibu inapaswa kuruhusiwa kukua pamoja kando ya trellis ili kukuza uchavushaji mtambuka.

6 PASSION FUIT 6.122 – FERTILIZER & HARVEST

 
Fertiliser application
At planting, use MORGANICS SEAWEED and farmyard manure. To obtain high yields, regular organic fertilisation is necessary.
Apply 300g of Calcium Ammonium Nitrate (CAN) per plant per year in two applications of 150g each during rainy season. Spraying with ORGANIC SEAWEAD is also recommended.

Crop protection
Weeding is essential when the plants are first transplanted. Disease is usually sufficiently controlled by crop rotation as plantations are not kept for more than three years.
Infected plant material should be pruned and destroyed and vines kept as open as possible to allow thorough application of sprays. Diseases can also be controlled by combination of good management, good orchard hygiene, and a suitable spray programme.
Pests lower fruit quality and should be controlled by regularly checking the areas around the orchard for signs of build-up. If necessary, spray to control the pests before they spread to the crop.

Harvest
When ready for harvesting, the skin of the fruit is deep purple or yellow. Its pulpy interior is bright yellow, filled with small black seeds. For fresh market or use, the fruit is picked when colour changes occur.
For processing, the fruit is allowed to drop to the ground and picked at least every second day. At this stage, the fruit is shrivelled but quite suitable for processing. Yields decline each year until harvests are not adequate in the four year.

Yields
Yields of over 15-20 tonnes/ha are attainable.

6 SASSION FUIT 6.122 – MBOLEA NA MAVUNO
 
Uwekaji mbolea
Wakati wa kupanda, tumia MORGANICS SEAWEED na samadi ya shambani. Ili kupata mavuno mengi, mbolea ya kikaboni ya kawaida ni muhimu.
Weka 300g ya Calcium Ammonium Nitrate (CAN) kwa mmea kwa mwaka katika matumizi mawili ya 150g kila msimu wa mvua. Kunyunyizia na ORGANIC SEAWEAD pia kunapendekezwa
Ulinzi wa mazao
Palizi ni muhimu wakati mimea inapandikizwa kwanza. Ugonjwa kawaida hudhibitiwa vya kutosha kwa mzunguko wa mazao kwani mashamba hayatunzwe kwa zaidi ya miaka mitatu.
Nyenzo za mmea zilizoambukizwa zinapaswa kupogolewa na kuharibiwa na mizabibu iwekwe wazi iwezekanavyo ili kuruhusu uwekaji kamili wa dawa. Magonjwa pia yanaweza kudhibitiwa kwa mchanganyiko wa usimamizi mzuri, usafi mzuri wa bustani, na programu inayofaa ya dawa.
Wadudu hupunguza ubora wa matunda na wanapaswa kudhibitiwa kwa kuangalia mara kwa mara maeneo karibu na bustani kwa dalili za kuongezeka. Ikibidi, nyunyiza ili kudhibiti wadudu kabla ya kuenea kwenye mazao
Mavuno
Wakati tayari kwa kuvuna, ngozi ya matunda ni ya rangi ya zambarau au ya njano. Sehemu yake ya ndani ya pulpy ni manjano mkali, iliyojaa mbegu ndogo nyeusi. Kwa soko au matumizi mapya, matunda huchukuliwa wakati mabadiliko ya rangi yanapotokea.
Kwa usindikaji, matunda yanaruhusiwa kushuka chini na kuchujwa angalau kila siku ya pili. Katika hatua hii, matunda yamekauka lakini yanafaa kabisa kusindika. Mavuno hupungua kila mwaka hadi mavuno hayatoshi katika miaka minne.
Mazao
Mavuno ya zaidi ya tani 15-20 kwa hekta yanaweza kupatikana.
