My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

No direct sun

13 years ago

I live in an apartment and wanted to start growing a few vegetables on my balcony. My problem is no direct sun. Living in phoenix AZ where it gets pretty warm, what are my options if any with no direct sunlight, only shade?
