What happens to rainbow silverbeet when left in shade?

Answer 1

Mine died....I had them in a position that was both too wet and too shady, they threw lots of small immature leaved that wilted, went slimy died...I also tried them in self watering pots. Unsuccessful.

I planted new ones this weekend just gone in a sunny spot that doesn't really get much shade at all and drains well. I'll see how they go there. I've also started looking into Companion Planting. I have Basil and Citronella planted in the same garden as it's supposed to lkeep away the bugs. I also spray with a garlic and chilli spray on my herbs & vegies.
