You are my inspiration. I wish you could come and see my building which you assisted me through your videos 👏👏👏God bless you son and daughter. Being an old woman I was following your videos and from October 2021 my house is 80% completed.
I really love the way you have divided the land and preparing for the garden coz this is what we also do back home in Africa, we like to purchase large pieces of land (4000sqm) and we divide it into two plots, one plot for the house, parking, garden (flowers and grass or lawn)etc and the other plot for gardening as in growing vegetables, fruit trees etc.
I have red palm and some of the flowers you referenced at my house. Specifically, I have three red palms at my garden. The price is accurate; a thousand Cedis each for the big ones. The smaller red palm cost 500 Cedis each, but you would have to wait for them to grow bigger.
Mulch wood chippings occasionally used for topping gardens also used for the absorption of water for your plants. Cant wait to see the finished landscape.
Asher , the quotation for gardening is too high in terms of labour, materials, plants and even transportation, my advice is that you hire general labourers and get them to prepare the land and do everything that the gardener wants to do. All that gardener would do is hire those same general labourers and tell them what he wants them to do. Most people in Africa already have good knowledge of agriculture and the labourers may even advice about best practise. 80GhC per labourer per day should suffice You are being ripped off big time. Preparing the soil does not require infusing it with fertiliser soil in Africa is very fertile. Just buy some 4-5 kgs of chicken manure to put down a little every where you plant seeds. In fact in the rainy season, the speed that weeds would be growing would have wishing the soil was less fertile. The only preparation of land required in planting season is creating raised beds or mounds. For your land 2 labourers should do it in a day for no more than 160GhC. Go and buy all your seedlings and suckers yourself. By using direct labour you can get it done for less than 20% the prices you were quoted and you would have more control of the process. But with the labourers you need to be on top of them to ensure they are doing their job as you asked especially planting seeds, because they can take your seeds and tell you they have been planted and you won't find out until weeks later, when nothing is growing. So do the seed planting alongside each labourer so you can confirm they are being planted.
Desert Rose is a very beautiful plant when in bloom, we have one that is bicolor, red and white. However, it is also very expensive so I think your quoted price is good, we bought ours which was medium size, for 200ghc a year ago. Depending on the plant sizes, the prices seem okay but I believe you could get some of the regular plants, hibiscus etc, cheaper at the Parks and Garden head office at Cantoment. That’s where we get all our regular local variety plants. I would have said do it yourself but that is a lot of work and sometimes it is best to buy your time and freedom and enjoy watching the flower garden done by someone else. The vegetable garden though can be an easy work when the ground has been prepared by someone else. Your garden will look beautiful. Please take good care of it. I also wish you had more local flowering plants that do not require watering or much water during the dry season because it’s less work and less water usage. Keep all those palms, coconut, and mango tree away from the walls, manholes, and pavers because their roots go deep and wide and can damage them. How about avocado plant would you get one? You have done very well.
Kindly be vigilant bcos some of the workers may be informants and armed Robbers. I really appreciate your efforts in showing much but also scared for u.
Asher and Gad greetings, thanks for your sharing's, on building in Ghana, fantastic information. It would be very challenging " to rip you off " Yaweh is real. Sorry this may be the wrong video to raise this point. On your AC videos one area I was hoping you would cover would be a DC air conditioning unit and the comparatives to the AC inverter units. Do you think its too late to look at this area?
Does cost involve garden soil? Cus depending on the crop, all those stuff (mulch, etc) might not be necessary. My friend planted carpet grass without much and they're doing well. I also did crop science back in the day. The organic mulch and stuff also need to decay before certain plants cus they produce heat when decaying
With all the plants, vegetables garden, grass and flowers coming up on the compound, what are some of the remedies you have in place or in mind to deter mosquitoes and other unwanted species
You are really good, what is your ocopaytion? Have you think about Building Houses for people if they ask you? Or buying land for people,(as a job) please let as know.
Just make price comparisons for your landscaping needs. I have one question in relation to security. Is the crime rate in Ghana so bad that we need to have alarms, burglar bars, and electric fences? It seems I would be moving in a prison. Why not have the security fence or simply just have one form of security? It's not a good promotion for Ghana.
If you don’t fix the burglar bars.. you risk having your electrical wires and air condition copper pipes stolen during the building process and that cost alot. Its highly recommended
Oh there are thieves everywhere. Ghana is not different. You may install higher Guage glass as well without burglar bar. Say 12mm. Or even better, armoured glass
Too expensive. The reason why you get ripped off with so many things is because your face is so well known and your accent means the mighty pound. Also because you want to be part of everything for oversight and filming purposes you're unable to allow a local family member to front for you.
Please, as a rule of thumb, don't take any quote as bible. Pls go round some of the plant shops that you see around and check the prices for yourself. The plants quote you are sharing is a bit high.

Gad is going to be living her gardening dream. Amazing

Wow! Beautiful Palms trees, I love the trees and plants you doing, such a blessing to you both! Looks like the trees are cheap and plants!❤️
Watching from Dubai and taking notes...perhaps might incorporate some green grass on my compound.
I have red palm and some of the flowers you referenced at my house. Specifically, I have three red palms at my garden. The price is accurate; a thousand Cedis each for the big ones. The smaller red palm cost 500 Cedis each, but you would have to wait for them to grow bigger.

@@kingstal90 is the goverment going to do the roads anytime soon?
Seems like the gardener is knowledgeable
Yes

Regular Fumigation
There are different types that do not affect the plants but drive away the unwanted creatures you refer to, especially Mosquitoes
You are really good, what is your ocopaytion? Have you think about Building Houses for people if they ask you? Or buying land for people,(as a job) please let as know.
❤️❤️❤️
Can’t wait to see it put together! Do you know if there’s a land control or architectural guideline/police within your area?
The Indian tree will track the walls in future, don't plant it near the wall and the building
The plant are generally expensive.
I don't know the prices, but 5 Cedis per m2 sounds very reasonable
I agree
Just make price comparisons for your landscaping needs. I have one question in relation to security. Is the crime rate in Ghana so bad that we need to have alarms, burglar bars, and electric fences? It seems I would be moving in a prison. Why not have the security fence or simply just have one form of security? It's not a good promotion for Ghana.
Even in the west with NO alarm or burglary proofs,house burglary is still high and a menace. It's easy to invade someone's house abroad than in Ghana.
If you don’t fix the burglar bars.. you risk having your electrical wires and air condition copper pipes stolen during the building process and that cost alot. Its highly recommended
Oh there are thieves everywhere. Ghana is not different. You may install higher Guage glass as well without burglar bar. Say 12mm. Or even better, armoured glass
Yes,in Ghana you don't see the beauty of most houses because of high walls and security.
Did you include Mango trees?
We will do
Too expensive. The reason why you get ripped off with so many things is because your face is so well known and your accent means the mighty pound. Also because you want to be part of everything for oversight and filming purposes you're unable to allow a local family member to front for you.
Good morning bro,please can i get the contact of those in charge of yur compound?I mean whole team for the compound.thanks
Please, as a rule of thumb, don't take any quote as bible. Pls go round some of the plant shops that you see around and check the prices for yourself. The plants quote you are sharing is a bit high.
Please where do I get the palm tree
You can Get some of the palm trees at after achimota hospital or along new Dzorwulu junction to tetteh quashie roundabout
Try. Parks & Gardens @ Cantonments. But also available in many other places as you drive in town. Just keep an eye out towards the roadsides
@@BrightandClara truly appreciate but my project is in kumasi
@@kingstal90 thanks so much
I think it’s quite expensive
So that you can help me with mein.
What’s the name of the company doing the garden
Sadly all we Returnees will be ripped off one way or another.
Welcome home right?
It'll payoff for our heirs though so it's worth it
Why don't you do things youtself
RUBBISH
