Ugu Farming On A Two Plot Of Land. How Profitable? (pics)

This page is a long-running farm diary where the original poster (OP) documents the progress of an ugu (wild spinach) farming venture on a 100x100 foot plot, sharing photos and updates from planting to the 4-week stage. The thread features significant knowledge transfer as the OP answers technical questions about seed sourcing, variety selection, organic pest control, and soil preparation, while other users express interest in replicating the project. Although the OP discusses input costs and market challenges regarding seed procurement, the thread remains a supportive discussion rather than a commercial listing.
