That is a good point that I usually forget to mention. Whenever you have shade cloth, windows, glass, plastic or anything between the sun and your plants the light levels fall off exponentially as the distance between the plant and the light blocking item increases. Plants higher in a greenhouse are getting more light than those lower.

For those growing indoors this means the further you are from a window the faster the light levels drop.

Keep both factors in mind when choosing a location for you plants.
