Garden Space Assessment | Estimate Time & Effort for Garden Maintenance

Certainly! Based on your requirements, I've crafted a detailed and structured enhanced prompt that incorporates all the specified elements. Here's the finalized version:

Enhanced Prompt: Assessing Your Garden Space for Sustainable Maintenance

Objective: Evaluating the feasibility and efficiency of maintaining your garden space, considering practical constraints and best practices to design a sustainable and manageable garden layout.

Deliverables:

1. A detailed assessment of your garden's current state, including layout, plants, and infrastructure.
2. A comprehensive maintenance schedule with time estimates.
3. Recommendations for garden design adjustments based on resource availability.
4. Key metrics for achieving an efficient and long-term healthy garden.

Step-by-Step Guide:

1. Assessment of Current Garden Space

   • Objective: Evaluate the existing garden layout for functionality, aesthetics, and sustainability.
   • Metrics:
     • Area measurements (length x width) for each section.
     • Number and type of plants (Annual vs. perennial/non-perennial vs. native).
     • Soil quality assessment (pH, organic matter,排水能力).
     • Watering and irrigation system efficiency.
     • Sunlight exposure and microclimates.

2. Best Practices and Standards

   • Layout Design:
     • Use a "Rule of Six" for plant spacing to promote biodiversity.
     • Implement "Green Roofs" for urban settings to manage rainwater.
   • Water Management:
     • Calculate water requirements per plant (using Rule of Thumb chart).
     • Design an infiltration system for optimal water reuse.

3. Quality Expectations

   • Design:
     • Functionality: Ensure each space serves a purpose (-relaxing, productive, ornamental).
     • Aesthetics: Color scheme, texture, and contrast for visual appeal.
     • Sustainability: Use native species and minimal synthetic materials.
   • Maintenance:
     • Aim for 30-40% maintenance time per sea
