Q.Raised Vegetable Plot in Part Shade

Anonymous added on February 21, 2011 | Answered

This is my first attempt at veggies. It’s in an area with semi shade. I’m planning two 8 x 4 raised beds (3 sleepers deep). Is it workable?

While the size of your garden does not seem to be an issue, you may want to consider the shade aspect. How much shade exactly? Most vegetables require at least 6 hours of sun for optimal growth.
