inMy nephew's box fort went from sad taco stand to two story castle in 9 days
How much does he actually weigh and how tall is the second floor? That slide is only as safe as the anchor holding it, and a 30 box castle will tip fast if you bolt the slide to one flimsy wall. Run a couple of 2x4s down the back of the whole thing first, then attach the slide to that so the load spreads out instead of yanking one corner loose.

inSerious question, my 3rd floor balcony in Fresno hit 108 degrees and cooked my lettuce in one afternoon
Oh man, I used to think shade cloth was a waste of money and that stubborn plants just need tough love. Then my sister gave me a 30% white cloth for my own west balcony and the difference was nuts, my chard and even the kale stopped getting that crispy burnt look. I hung it on the railing with those little clips so it blocks the 3pm to 6pm sun but still lets air move through. Now I am a total shade cloth person. Fresno heat is just a different beast, and the cloth plus your 6am watering should get you greens all summer.

Six months is the safer bet, so keep going.
