Default Nursery Beds: location

Is it ok to locate a nursery bed in a East South East facing bed. I.e.
does the early to mid morning sun position cause any problems?

(that is potential frost in the early morning being broken by bright
morning sunshine).


I have heard that early morning sun on the frosted leaves of young plants
can kill them off. I think a nursery bed would be best sited where any
frost on leaves melts slowly before any direct sunlight hits them.

Everything you've learned in school as "obvious" becomes less and less
obvious as you begin to study the universe. For example, there are no
solids in the universe. There's not even a suggestion of a solid.
There are no absolute continuums. There are no surfaces. There are no
straight lines.
