I was confused, too, but it seems that she is mostly talking about things grown on or very near a patio. Our patio is on the north, and is covered, so I only grow things on the east and west edges of the patio, which get enough morning or afternoon sunlight. Most do better if they are a foot or so outside of the cover, bc then they get stronger light for a longer time (from noon to at least 5 pm on the west side).

I was hoping for advice on which way to dig the rows or lay out raised beds. We have always planted rows from east to west, but I’ve heard that you are better off running them north and south bc the sun goes directly over each row for a few hours a day. I’ve heard this N-S advice recently from a gardening expert.

Ha ha ha. Thanks! 🙂

He didn’t reply, but I thought your comment deserved a 👍🏻👍🏻. I laughed out loud!

I was so confused for a second until I figured out what you are saying. LOL. That’s funny. Let’s try this. Is your garden in your yard at home? If yes, great. Now stand in the place where you live, now face north. Think about direction wonder why you haven’t before. 🤣 🤣 🤣(If you don’t think that’s hilarious click here) But seriously, which direction are you facing when you look at your garden?
