Most vegetables prefer full sun, whereas some herbs or microgreens may do well with only partial sun. Keep in mind your access to water. Containers in a sheltered place will not get rain. On hot summer days, it may be necessary to water twice a day— once in the morning and again in the evening. Refer to your plant tag or seed package to determine how much sunlight and water each plant needs. Be attentive to keeping pests at bay. Before you know it, your plants will produce fruits/vegetables."
