Plants flowering stage: Can I leave them in the shadow?

For the past few years people have been trying, and succeeding to steal my plants, this year I got a tip that someone will try again . The only way to hide my plants is to put them in the shadow.
Will this make a big difference (for the bad) to my marijuana?
My plants are in BIG pots on a terras, the terras is half covered. I think they still need about 3 weeks to finish.
Thanks for any help!

Put that cat on the terras...lol. I think if they are just out of direct sunlight..not darkness...and they only have 3 weeks to go then you should be ok.

Costa Blanca....must be nice!
Welcome to R.I.U.
Good luck with that, hope they stay safe this time.

Either move em closer to where you can keep an eye on em or lose em! Im sure the terrace will work they prolly wont grow much taller but they'll ripen up at least.

fuckin thevies i hate them!!! find out whos stealing your hard work and punish them

put up your tent and fill up some magpuls fuck those theives. you should not be telling people or you wouldn't be getting "tips" in the first place.

seriously where did this tip come from lol probably from whoever told the thief and was supposed to get a cut but then they didnt get it is the one giving u the tip lol haha

Above my appartment there is a big public terras of our building, if you look over the edge you can see my terras... Cant put my plants anywhere else... So I didnt tell anybody but people see them themselves. I'm not worried with police, its legal to have two plants per person (they dont say how big you're aloud to grow them! hahaha).
Oh well thanks for the advice, I will be putting the plants undercover (and a lot of fishrobe around the plants attached to my arm when Im asleep!)
I hate those stealing fuckers!

and make sure youve got a nice big stick/bat/hammer jus in case you do vcatch someone trying to steal them

Get a cheap time lapse camera so if they do steal you shit at least you can shatter their shin bones.
