Morning sun is good for all plants. It's even and milder, so less intense and scorching for some plants that might droop or get scorched if the sun is searing down on them from early arvo on. So although most veggies like full sun and you should plan your garden accordingly by planting tallest plants north (south in southern hemisphere), remember that some low plants like strawberries, some herbs such as mint, and most leafy greens such as lettuce, spinach and bok choy welcome some shade in the hot summer arvo and can happily be planted in the shade of taller plants (eg: corn, peppers, tomatoes), which are planted to the south of them. If you're actually planting in rows, then I believe planting east to west is best, with tallest plants in west and in the south rows (opposite in sth hemisphere).
