The total area is 6 1/2ft X 4ft. I cannot utilize all of this space for
growing though because I have to have room to walking, composting, and a
place for extra tools and pots. I get up to about 8 of those five gallon
containers for planting, as well as other larger pots crammed in so as to
utilize the sunlight best. If you have the opportunity, you can move the
buckets and pots around in the morning and afternoon to catch more of the
sunlight on your plants. Thanks for watching!
lol, he really was! I am not doing zucchini on a balcony any more, they
need to be in the ground with plenty of room and sunlight to get HUGE! But
pick the fruits young because they are much more tender and fresh that way.

I’d love to know the dimensions of your patio that you’ve utilized for the
garden. I have a small patio too, but I’m in Portland, Oregon, and
everything grows out here with very little help from me. I had a planter of
strawberries over the winter that vined out little clones and they’re
actually growing out of the wooden patio flooring all on their own now,
just an example of how accommodating the environment is.
