Brasicaceae microgreens, basil, and cherry tomatoes perform well in balcony planters; stagger sowing for a steady supply.
Radishes, carrots in deep containers, and volunteer-friendly crops tolerate warmer temps with shade cloth and drainage.
Kale, chard, and lettuce selections that handle cooler nights; finish with a protective cover if frost threatens.
Use clear shelving with reflective backdrops to maximize light. Maintain 20–24°C during the day with consistent airflow.
Water early morning; use saucers to capture overflow and prevent root rot in compact pots.
Use a well-draining, nutrient-balanced mix in containers; refresh with compost tea between cycles.
Plant in modules with multiple harvest windows to ensure continuous supply for meals.
All-in-one planters, self-watering pots, and vertical racks fit balconies and small patios.
