Understanding Light Needs
Light is one of the most critical factors for the success of your vertical garden. Different plants have varying light requirements, so it's essential to choose the right location based on the light needs of your plants.
Types of Light
There are three main types of light conditions:
- Full Sun: Plants that require full sun need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
- Part Sun/Part Shade: These plants thrive in 3-6 hours of sunlight per day.
- Full Shade: Plants that prefer full shade should receive less than 3 hours of direct sunlight daily.
Placement Tips
When setting up your vertical garden, consider the following:
- Place sun-loving plants like succulents and herbs in areas with full sun exposure.
- Shade-loving plants such as ferns and mosses should be placed in areas with limited sunlight.
- Rotate your plants regularly to ensure even light distribution and prevent one side from becoming leggy.
