This thread is a Q&A discussion where a farmer asks why their egusi (melon) crop died after weeding, receiving advice on the dangers of disturbing crawling vines during heavy rains and the correct planting seasons. The conversation evolves into a knowledge exchange about regional planting windows and soil drainage, concluding with an unrelated advertisement for seedlings.
