How can I optimize sunlight for my garden?

To optimize sunlight for your garden, consider the layout of your plants, the time of day, and the seasons. What plants are you growing?

I'm growing tomatoes and peppers. They need a lot of sun.

Great choices! Ensure they receive at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight daily. You might want to position them in the sunniest part of your garden.

What if my garden is shaded by trees?

If your garden is shaded, consider trimming the trees or using reflective materials to direct more light to your plants. You could also choose shade-tolerant plants.

Are there specific times of the year when sunlight is more intense?

Yes, sunlight intensity varies by season. In summer, the sun is higher in the sky, providing more direct light. In winter, the angle is lower, so plan accordingly.
