direct sunlight?

[Grunger]

Hey, I have 2 plants in cups right now, im planning to move them to bigger pots soon. I havn't thought a good place to keep them yet, exept i think a good spot would be right in the corner of my yard. The problem is there are fences around my yard, so im afraid if i put it next to a fence, it would only get sunlight like half the day. Does a plant need direct sunlight, or will it grow fine if its just not in a dark place, one that is light, but no direct sunlight? Thx

When a Cannabis plant is young it shouldn't be put in direct sunlight at all. Direct sunlight will dry dirt in less than 5 minutes. I would say give them a little more direct sunlight everyday, starting when their roots have reached a depth in the dirt where it wont be as dry. The minimum direct sunlight I'm not sure about, but I do know that most other plants I grow outside need at least 6 hours of it per day.

Just my opinion dude.



Good Luck

Yeah that sounds about right

My plants got toasted outside but they are still surviving

Agreed. young plants do well in open shade while in cups. after they've gotten a few leaves and have been up-potted 6 hrs. of direct sun will be plenty to grow big ol' bushes.
