Module 6 is dedicated to the effects of the sun and how you as a producer map out your vaults. This is a perfect example of different types of sun exposure that determines which vegetables thrive and which ones bolt, burn, or struggle! - Full sun beds with 8+ hours of direct light are perfect for tomatoes, peppers, and squash-they turn all that energy into delicious fruit! - Partial sun with 5-7 hours are great for root crops like carrots, beets, and turnips that focus their energy underground. - Partial shade areas with 3-5 hours work well for leafy greens like lettuce, spinach, and arugula that can bolt in too much heat. - Dappled shade under trees with 2-3 filtered hours can still nurture shade-tolerant herbs like mint, parsley, and chives without them becoming leggy. Remember, sunlight is the key factor that decides whether your plants struggle or thrive!
