CUCUMBER PRODUCTION

             Cucumbers are warm season vegetables. They do not tolerate frost. Temperatures below 10 C (50 F) may impact crop growth and negatively affect fruit quality. They require well drained, compaction-free locations with ample fertility. Freshmarket cucumbers respond well to plasticulture and fertigation. High levels of nitrogen may result in excess leaf growth and poor fruit development. Most vine crops benefit from supplemental beehives to promote pollination.


                                                    Seeding and Spacing

            Plant seeds into moisture, no more than 2-2.5 cm (1 in.) deep. Deeply planted seed is often slow to emerge, resulting in lower plant populations. Quick, uniform emergence is essential to avoid uneven stands weakened by insects and disease. Delay direct seeding until the soil temperature is 15°C (59 F) or higher. The optimum soil temperature range at planting is 25-30 C (77-86 F.) Do not set transplants in the field until all risk of frost has passed.

            Row spacing ranges from 3-4 feet for handpicked cucumbers. Use 20-30" rows for machine harvest fields. In-row spacing for both hand and machine harvest should be set at 4-6".

                                                           Transplants

           Successful cucumber establishment from transplants requires special care and attention. Germination and establishment in the greenhouse can be finicky. The young root system is easily injured and they are often slow to resume growth in the field. Overgrown transplants are readily damaged during planting, resulting in poor stand establishment.

           Plant cucumbers 2-4 weeks before the anticipated field setting date. Use a maximum tray size of 128's. Larger tray cells will help promote faster crop establishment and earlier harvest. However, there is no great benefit to using cells larger than 50's.

                                               Integrated Pest Management

          Cucumbers are susceptible to a wide range of insect and disease pressures. For a full description of each pest and its available control measures, please refer to the Ontario Vegetable Production Recommendations, OMAFRA publication 363.

Loved And Hate Relationship


          As the saying goes on, that "Love many things, for therein lies the true strength, and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is done in love is done well" and "Trouble is part of your life: if you don't share it, you don't give the person who loves you a chance to love you enough".

           A love and hate relationship is an interpersonal relationship involving simultaneous or alternating emotions of love hate. This relationship does not have to be of a romantic nature, and may be instead of a sibling one. It may occur when people have completely lost the intimacy within a loving relationship, yet still retain some passion commitment to each other. In addition, when you are in love, the world seems like a great place to live in. Love has that effect on everyone. Life seems worthy of living and fate seems more giving. Being in love is therefore one of the most enriching and precious experiences of one's life.


          In contrast, love triangle is usually a romantic relationship involving three people. While it  refers to two people independently romantically linked with a third, it usually implies that each of the three people has some kind of relationship to the other two. The relationships can be friendships, romantic, or familial (often siblings), and often triggers jealousy and hatred between the rivals involved. Although, the romantic love triangle is formally identical to the friendship triad, as many have noted their actual implications are quite different.Romantic love is typically viewed as an exclusive relationship, whereas friendship is not. 


          Two main forms of love triangle have been distinguished: 'there is the chivalrous triangle, where the lover is competing with a rival for the love of the beloved, and the split-object triangle, where a lover has split their attention between two love objects.


How To Make A Research Paper?

           A research paper may refer to academic paper, term paper, and thesis or dissertation. On the other hand, it is a formal information and other writers' ideas about a topic rather than solely on your attitudes and experiences. Writing a research paper offers you the opportunity to develop an informed opinion and to apply your thinking and writing skills to an objective discussion of a topic. It is more than a summarized version of what you have written.

           However, your research paper represents your own perceptions, attitudes, ideas or opinions, and experiences supported by information gained from others.  The objective of organizing a research paper is to allow people to read their work selectively. When we  research a topic, It may be interested in just the methods, a specific result, the interpretation, or perhaps we see the summary of the paper to determine if it is relevant to our study. To this end, many journals required different sections.

          In wriring a research paper, there are many steps to follow. First,choose your topic. Second, find information. Third, formulate your thesis statement. Fourth, make your outline. Fifth, organized your notes. Sixth, write youe draft then,revised your outline and draft and finally, package your research paper.

The cause and effect of global warming

          In my research, global warming refers to the rising average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans and its projected continuation. Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises).  It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature.  This hurts many people, animals, and plants.  Many cannot take the change, so they die. 


          An increase in global temperature will cause sea levels to rise and will change the amount and pattern of precipitation, and a probable expansion of subtropical deserts.Warming is expected to be strongest in the Arctic and would be associated with continuing retreat of glaciers, permafrost and sea ice. Other likely effects of the warming include more frequent occurrence of extreme weather events including heatwaves, droughts and heavy rainfall events, species extinctions due to shifting temperature regimes, and changes in crop yields .Warming and related changes will vary from region to region around the globe, with projections  being more robust in some areas than others. 


          The effects of global warming are the ecological and social changes caused by the rise in global temperatures. Evidence of observed climate change includes the instrumental temperature record, rising sea levels, and decreased snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere.Projections of future climate change suggest further global warming, sea level rise, and an increase in the frequency of some extreme weather events.

 

What is art?

          Art is very important in our lives.It constitutes one of the most  important means of expression developed by man.Also, art like love,that is not easy to define. In addition, art  is the product or process of deliberately arranging items in a way that influences and affects one or more senses, emotions, and intellect.Wherever people have live together, art has sprung up among them as a language charged with feeling and significance.The desires to create this language appears to be universal.

          Traditionally, the term art was used to refer to any skill or mastery. This conception changed during the Romantic period, when art came to be seen as "a special faculty of the human mind to be classified with religion and science".Generally, art is made with the intention of stimulating thoughts and emotions.

          However, genuine "infection" is not the only criterion for good art. The good art vs. bad art issue unfolds into two directions. One is the conception that the stronger the infection, the better is the art. The other concerns the subject matter that accompanies this infection, which leads  to examine whether the emotional link is a feeling that is worth creating.

What is Politics?

          Politics is a special field of interest that can be interpreted differently.In addition, it is the art and science of governance by which the will of the community is arrived and implemented. It can also be the first pursuit and exercise of political power necessary to make binding policy decision for the community and to distribute some governmental benefits. Otherwise, politics is the owning and exercising of power, rule,  authority, and influence for whatever reasons.

          You might be asking what is the purpose of politics?The purpose of politics can be personal,    organizational, individual, institutional, governmental, commercial and collective in nature. Finally, politics exist anytime at any place with anybody trying to own and exercise power and influence to attain given objectives that is why politics inevitably exist in the family, churches, schools, mass media, government, associations, societies, business corruption, and revolutionary groups.

          However, the standard definition of politics would definitely include some elements: power, rule, authority, influence, and manner in which all are acquired and exercise. The manner of acquiring and exercising can be democratic, autocratic, authorization, consensual or irrational.

          Some politicians make the politics as a business but that is wrong because politics is a governance in which people do their task as a leader in the community rather than corrupting. While, business is a profit in which the primary motive of persons engaged it in which they cannot corrupt their own business. We should always remember that politics is not a business but it is a public service!

          But sad to say, politics becomes dirty because there are some corrupt government officials that make the politics as a business. They abused the opportunity while they are still in position which is happened to our country before up to the present.
