Sun Loving Plants
An area exposed to full or near-full sunlight soil is ideal. Leafy and root vegetables prefer full sun, but will still grow okay in partial shade. Any site can become a highly productive garden; just choose the right plants for your spot. Since plants grown in the Garden Patch are healthier, you can even cheat it a little.
Vine crops such as watermelons, cantaloupes, winter squash and cucumbers require large amounts of space. Putting your GrowBox™ near a fence or trellis may allow for the growing vine.
