Terrace Gardens â More Space, More Sun
Terrace gardens typically offer significantly more growing space and sun exposure than apartment balconies, allowing for a wider range of vegetables and larger container sizes. The open exposure also means more attention to wind, heat and monsoon protection is needed.

Maximising Terrace Vegetable Production
With more space available, succession planting becomes highly effective â stagger sowing of fast-growing crops like radish and spinach every 2 to 3 weeks for continuous harvest. Larger containers (15 to 20 litre grow bags) on terraces produce significantly higher yields than the smaller containers necessary on space-constrained balconies.
