| As ButtOn noted - sooner or later you will find a light meter invaluable.
I have my shadecloth (55%) set up on the east side of my house. After about 12-1 they get NO more sunshine - inside my enclosure I have catts, oncids, dends, intergenerics, cyms that seem to tolerate this arrangement acceptably - albeit probably not ideal for all. I put my paphs underneath a large fuji cherry tree where they get early morning sun and that is it - so far so good. |
