For success growing in the shade, remove low-hanging branches from nearby trees, use raised beds and liners to discourage tree roots from wicking water away from crops, and use reflective mulches to give plants more light.

we wouldn't use raised bed liners in hurricane territory like south florida– the annual deluges alone would flood the raised bed if lined.
I am surprused by the "discarded carpet" liner suggestion, since carpets have so many toxins in them, including fire retardants! You can use it, but it won't be strictly organic produce.
your a moron if you think reflective mulch is going to give your plant any usable light.
Actually reflection is light and plants strive on light. Do you know what photosynthesis is? If not well then you are the moron.
One part of my garden is shade and the other is sun. Would mushroom compost be the best to rotteller in. What veggies would I plant in the shade. The shaddie part is no sun at all. Please tell me what to do?
You're a moron if you abbreviate "you are" as "your".
why use abusive language? Don't like it ignore the wrriter than showing I might say your 'upbringing but I will not dare use that way as it woud be insulting to your parents. what 's wrong in being civil to each other?
Agree with VJ. Where is the love these days?
Del if it"s really that much shade maybe you could go for some thing animal or insect. A pool for raising fish, rabbit hutch, chicken/pigeon coop, out there- bee hives for honey.
