I’m hoping next year to try to grow a few plants on my apartment’s deck. It’s half sun and I live in a temperate area where I’ve had family grow tomatoes, potatos, peas, beans, etc.
I feel like any fruit or veg that can grow on a trellis should, in theory, work. Anyone have any lived experience to share? I’m not terribly good with plants, so I also ask the question “should a novice tackle this kind of project”?
What direction does your deck face? I have a south-south west patio on my apartment and I grow tomatoes, assorted peppers (bell, banana, horn, jalapeño, habanero, ghost, Carolina reaper etc), blueberries, strawberries, raspberries etc. I was thinking of getting an apple and lemon tree next year. Basically if you aren’t facing east or north you should be good to go
Guess who faces completely north? 8D
Doesn’t seem like a death knell completely but not ideal. I can’t handle heat but I have a partner who would absolutely love to make their own pepper sauces.
