So i am curious and have no idea how this is going to turn out. I have built a 50% shade cloth enclosure for these ladies, (2 sides are blacked out, 2 sides draped in 50% shade cloth) but i am finding little to no information on flowering under a shade cloth. as you can see these ladies are doing just fine in Veg, it is the flowering i am concerned about.
So that being said i was doing a bit of research. 110,000 lux is an average of direct sunlight, with the 50% shade cloth i am thinking around half is blocked out, is 55,000 Lux (they get about 5 hours of direct sunlight hitting the top and the sides of my enclosure)
My question is if this is going to be enough light to support flowering. I have only found a few topics on this subject and not ONE of them was a help. If i cannot flower under this enclosure then i will figure something else out, i just dont have a clue if i am going to get some swag from flowering under here as my plants are all very healthy. anyways, thank you all for your time.
here is a few pictures, not the best, so you can see somewhat what i am talking about
