Will that work for us too ????

Yes, they are They will get all the sun they want in a few weeks, when I put them on the balcony. But I think it's too soon now. And of course, they need to survive the re-potting first. I have no idea how to do that
Try adding some tinfoil along the wall so that they get some light from both directions.,... they're looking good, though - better than mine this year (we're going to have to find some in the garden centres !) ....
