Hi, I'm new here and also new to container gardening. I don't know why I never thought of it before, but suddenly, about a week ago I got the idea to grow vegetables on our apartment balcony.
I know nothing about gardening but I can't wait. I requested the book "The Bountiful Container" from the library and plan to start next week.
I would appreciate any guidance from those here with experience. I live in Northern California. Right now the temperature highs are in the 70s and low 80s. The lows are in the high 40s and low 50s. My balcony doesn't get a lot of direct sun, maybe only an hour or two.
What would be ideal to grow in terms of organic vegetables? I love carrots, peppers, sugar snap peas, lettuce, cucumbers, spinach, soybeans, and probably some other veggies I can't think of now....
Thanks for your help!
