John Lots of luck, Most veggies I know of need at least 6 hours of sun to grow and 10-12 hours to ripen. There might be a few herbs that fit. Unless you want to set up some grow lights to suppliment Byron ---------- From: John Cramer <cramerj@ij.net> To: Tomato@GlobalGarden.com Subject: [tomato] Plantings Date: Friday, February 26, 1999 12:18 AM Hi to all of you! I'm new to tomato gardening, and I have a spot in my yard on which I want to plant our favorite fruit. It gets about 3-4 hours of morning sun, then mostly heavy shade the rest of the day. Can I use the spot? I don't have much of anywhere else to plant. I should let you know that I'm in Sarasota, FL. Any pointers would be gratefully accepted.
