This is something to consider! Thanks!

I think you said "second story deck. And hanging vines off the deck?

Would you pick them from below (ground level), or by hanging over the deck?

I would be picking them from the deck. I don't have any intentions of growing edibles on a vine this year, probably just flowers. In years past I have and may again in the future, so if you have ideas, I'd love to hear them!

You might use plastic to keep water off the deck. But it still has to run off somewhere, and dripping onto the deck below yours might still be a bad thing.

Good luck! I also have limited sunny space.


I'm not too concerned about water running off of the deck. With plastic, my concern is that rain water would get trapped under it and make matters worse.
