Hello,
I want to grow auto (Tempered climate) on my terrace. There are adjoining terraces to my terrace.
Left right front are not that secure for eyes to see.
So i want to grow in the open but i want to hide...
SMELL IS NOT THE ISSUE as people do smoke here and there on the street.
so how can i use the sun but avoid the preying eyes ?
 
Oh ok. Yea I don't know much about auto's beside they auto flower heh. Well if you are trying to conceal them maybe use some lattice to let some light in on the left right front? I don't think I'm fully comprehending your situation. How much room are you working with?

Thx for helping
The size of the terrace is 10 x 8 open. Only 2 feet side walls. Front side 2 floor house can see directly in the whole terrace due to height. left right same.
So my only option is to disguise, hide, cover etc
What i am thinking of using a plant cover. What you say any suggestion over the product to use?
That lattice idea is also great but i think the plant cover is better idea. Don't you think ?

This is a bad idea. Growing on an OPEN terrace? Not trying to rain on your parade, but unless you are somewhere with "relaxed" laws growing on a terrace which is open for all eyes to see is not the best. Find a better spot imo.
 
I just googled plant covers because I wasn't familiar with them nor have I had any experience with them. They might let more light over the lattice. It's a shame you are not on the 2nd floor with a balcony. Both Lattice/plant cover seem risky IMO.

Both Lattice/plant cover seem risky IMO.
why ???

come on guys i know the risk involved thats why i want
Disguise
plat cover / green house cover /plastic/ cloth/lattice whatever which will use maximum sun (60-70%) and not that noticable plus it will save from pests !
i already did a lot of research but it is better to ask people before taking decision so i m asking !
Please for the thread please remove the thought of "Don't do on the open terrace !" i have convinced my self that this is doable and already did the survey since last year !
Also i choose the strains accordingly !!! Please suggest !
 
I couldn't tell you what materials would let 60%-70% of sun light through. Anyways, it sounds like you already have your mind made up. You want to grow on your open terrace using plant covers. If someone does happen to notice them they could easily steal the plant being it is on the first floor of a open terrace. I am just saying it could be risky, that is my opinion, take it with a grain of salt.
