Full sun - 6 hours or more Partial shade - 3 to 6 hours Shade - less than 3 hrs 1. Lettuce - grow between taller plants like tomatoes; store lots of water+nutrients in the leaves and the sun can take that away. 2. Radish - specically short varieties grown in less than 30 days such as scarlet globe, crimson, cherry belle 3. Curry leaf plant - partial shade or shade both work, full sun is too hard on the leaves 4. Basil - leaves turn yellow in full sun 5. Cilantro - partial shade, can grow in any kind of shallow trays with limited amount of space 6. Mint - partial shade 7. Taro 8. Beets - if grown in full sun the roots will be big but leaves will grow bigger in partial shade so it depends on what you want to harvest, beet leaves or beet roots 9. Kale 10. Tomatoes - cherry tomatoes only, larger tomatoes need full sun

Very useful video for balcony gardeners like me... thank you..

Thank you so much for this topic! I live near you but my south-facing balcony has a full eave and is fully shaded during late spring and summer! Once the sun gets lower for fall, I will get some direct sun on the balcony, but I was nervous for choosing what to grow in containers to start out mid-summer. This will help me choose. I would love to have fruits as well as veggies and herbs, so I may try 1 citrus in a container, and try to buy a more established one, and would love to grow berries as well, so I hope the long California season will help me with that.

Great video!

Love that you demonstrated how the plants looked in sun versus shade. That really helped. I have more shade than sun in my yard. Again, I leaned so much from this video, thank you.

Best one I've seen so far.

True! Taro is a beast in the full shade with sunlight just slightly beyond its reach. The plants will produce HUGE leaves while trying to expand to the light... but if it does grow into direct sunlight, the leaves yellow and curl.

Definitely tomatoes 👌 . My entire garden is partial shade and I grow all types of tomatoes . Ofcourse the big beefsteak varieties don't get as big as they should but I still manage to grow them in my south facing balconies . Last season I got a maximum of 4 hours sun and a minimum of one hour sun when the growing season began . One more I would add to your list is chilly plants - they do really well for me in 4 hours sun once well established . Great video 👌👌.

My lettuce is in full Sun and my broccoli is in partial shade, because I wasn’t really paying attention to where the Sun would be when I planted. Now that the Sun is higher in the sky, I’m getting shade where I had full Sun back in January and full Sun where I had partial shade.
