ok i was wondering if plants can have to much shade. because i have like a 6 foot tall area but like 4 feet of it is all shade, it doesnt get any shade till like the 5 foot or bigger so i was wondering that if i still put my plants there which they are still babies would they still grow good or should i find somewhere with more sunlight. oh and ya it is very hot out here so would the heat help or no. | ||

 | Heat doesnt make a plant grow faster, but more sun will. Unless you want to waste your time, I'd find a spot that gets at least 6-7 hours of direct light. More the better. | ||

| Shade is wonderful if your in a lawn chair sippin beer but i think your plants are going to appretiate the sun alot more than we might. You can deffinately have too much shade. Yeilds will end up directly related to lighting. The better the light and feeding the better your buds are going to turn out.

| Another mistake could be showing your "buddy" where your plants are. Been there...Done that. | ||
