growing near trees

[MrLanky]

Im was going to grow in this area near my house but the area where I was going to grow is full of trees. The trees are really pathetic and most of them are almost dead. The plants were get direct sunlight all day and I would plant them in about 2 foot deep holes with potting soil. I was wondering if these trees will affect the growth and if planting near trees is in general a good/bad idea.

well if the trees end up growing leaves in the summer they will end up filtering the sunlight the plants get. This can either be good or bad I guess. Good if its really dry during the season, or bad if youre planning on growing some monsters because those plants will want as much light as they can get as long as you're giving them the care they need.
