Two problems... Not much room for roots... not much sunlight.

And... I can't find a description of the containers...
Ok found it...
TreeSong said: 2) What type of planters (materials and depth, width and length) would you suggest?

I would probably create the largest raised bed that I possibly could... If I was married to a container...

I'd probably plant cherry tomatoes... they will usually produce fruit in conditions where the large types will not.


As far as what else to plant?
What do you eat?

I'd plant lambsquarter... cook it like spinach...

Maybe squash... maybe beans... A lot of stuff would probably grow in the spot with morning sun... a lot less in the spot with just the afternoon sun...

Seems like a lot of experimenting is going to be necessary...
