North is a complete no go. That's right against the property line to an asshole with a bitey dog. Can the opposite work?

The south side of your house will have the most sun - especially if you're somewhat far north. I would go for either the east or west side instead. Before I had the trampoline realization, I used our east facing porch to limit sunlight without having to bring the plants in/out for a few hours a day.

East is easy, that's the front. I can put them on the porch! Still not much to protect them from wind, but so be it. May the healthiest plant survive?? XD

If they're up against something they'll surely get less wind - right?

[–] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

They can be right against the house, so yes! It's so very windy sometimes, so I just am concerned about them.
