sun and water

My balcony is facing East, so plants are getting plenty of sun in the morning and stay in shade in the afternoon. First I was worried that they won't have enough light, but with the recent heat wave I understood that morning sun is not as harsh as in the afternoon and the place is just perfect! I keep herbs in a more shady corner and tomatoes more in the sun.

My mini farm needs a lot of water... really a lot! Especially if you keep plants in small pots or containers you have to remember to give them plenty of it :)  I usually water them in the afternoon - it is important not to do that when plants are in a direct sunlight, they might get burn!
