Relocating and expanding the garden... want to put it where the old swings/play area was as I"m now using that gravel for the slab base in my shop. Good location and visibility from the house (pic was shot from the back porch), good topsoil, and will probably end up 30W"x40"L, or bigger.... Basic veggies. Looking to maybe add strawberries, etc. Going to keep the old smaller garden too for peppers or?.
I"ve always grown up with a garden and always had one. They"ve always been in the open with full sun. This location will be shaded in the late afternoon/evening by the trees to the west. The pic is shot looking due south and there is a grade to it that drains toward the pond.
My question - Is the shade a good or bad thing? Again, never had one that was partially shaded.
Thanks
Tony
