Heard someone say you need a south-facing balcony to grow anything decent

My west-facing setup in Seattle still gave me a solid 8 pounds of tomatoes last summer. I think it's more about picking the right plants and using a good grow bag. What's the best thing you've grown on a less-than-perfect balcony?

Used to agree, but my peppers proved me wrong.

Funny how that works, right? I used to swear peppers needed full blazing sun all day long. Then I moved some to a spot with afternoon shade and they actually did better.

Remember when everyone said you couldn't grow decent lettuce without full sun?
