    Plantain has a lot of water stored up in it, so it waters the coconut plants during the dry seasons. You can increase your coconut plant growth by just digging IRRIGATION TRENCHES between the lines. They store up water for your plants during the dry season

    Marintia, pls make sure you personally visit the farm regularly. I'm not impressed with what I saw. I knew when you bought the land. At least there should be plantain to come home with. Monitor your investment, its a good one.

  • @proyouservicesltd3652

    Great investment. She would probably end up making the bulk of her money from the plantains - probably 6 times what she makes from the coconuts.

    There are young people from wealthy homes like Marintia who weren’t encouraged by their parents to work and invest. This is a good example of how you should raise your children, after all what’s the point of spending thousands on their education? Unfortunately the children that weren’t encouraged typically end up depending on fleecing Government funds which should go to the people.

    Ms.Vanessa, you cease to amaze me 🤩.Your material is so enriching. It feels as if we are all learning together at the same time. You have a rare gift for “teaching”.So so interesting. I am a retired teacher, and I would always ask my students what they learned today, just to hear their feedback. I would say, “raise your hand if you learned something today? Then,I would ask those who didn’t quit get it YET, if they are”still learning”. With your information you share, I can honestly say that both things are happening.
    “I Learned,”and I am STILL learning!!👩🏽‍🏫 Keep doing what you’re doing.Thank you. Also,..loved your video on the retired gentlemen who lived in the Uk (30+yrs.)and came back to Ghana.Very wise man. My son and I are coming to visit Ghana for the first time July 5-15. We are So excited!!🙋🏾‍♀️🧔🏾‍♂️🇬🇭

    I will advise you on which coconut to choose to plant on your plantation as I am from a country in the Pacific region where coconuts are planted on large scale. Don't see that the coconut bears plenty of fruit and u want to get the seedlings from that coconut. I advise u don't, because when coconuts are planted and are close to each other the bees make cross-pollination. could be the case that the cross-pollination is from a coconut that does not bear many nuts to a coconut that bears heavy. you might think at first that it will later bear a lot like from where u get the seedlings from. at some point, it can bear plenty but if there are possibilities cross-pollination can destroy the breed. so I advise if u want to get the seedlings, get them from the coconut that stands alone and bears heavily, where there is a possibility of no cross-pollination to destroy the breed
