Do you need direct sunlight for this to work? My back garden doesn't get much sunlight, so it'd be cool if there was still a way we could grow some things. Looks fairly compact too, which would be valuable!
Yes and No, Hydroponics is not the deciding factor here. The plants are. Some want sun, the more the better and others thrive in shade. Alas i only have full sun, so im the wrong guy zo ask for recommendations on plants. Maybe make your own Post with Pictures across the day of you planned space?
