Hi, here are fun & easy to follow instructions on how to build an inexpensive shade house for your plants that will stimulate growth as the sun passes in an East to West direction. Your foliage will become more attractive and never get burned, you will also have to water the plant less often, allowing more of a safety margin for wilting. Most plants do well under this amount of light, but you can adjust the spaces of the boards further apart for more sunlight or closer together for less sunlight. But I reccomend the 50/50 method described, its pretty foolproof. I've had mine for over a year now, I only made it 4 foot tall and my fast growing elephant ears are stimulated by the "spotty" sunlight and quickly outgrow the shadehouse.
