Hi Everyone
Just starting to put my cactus outside for the summer. The weather has finally started to get nice on Long Island. Last year they got sunburned
so this year I purchased shade cloth. I got the 40%-50% protection. It's suppose to be sunny and warm for at least the next week. How long do I
leave the cloth on for?
Thanks
John

Re: Shade Cloth
I thought someone would have answered by now... I think you should experience, see everyday how the plants are reacting, slowly expose them a bit more.

Re: Shade Cloth
I leave my shade cloth on year round in CA , 50% woven cloth. And a few get half day full sunlight like echinocereus and ferocatcus.
In the fall when the sunlight goes low it can burn the sides of the cactus.
