Can you explain why that is, Pat? The afternoon sun
gives more heat. Not being testy, just curious.

This is convenient.

My neighbor, the gentleman I mentioned from a past post that provided me the
tree netting, warned it looked like I was "scalding" the plants' roots by
the extended exposure to the afternoon sun. He thought because I water at
night the soil is retaining enough water that when it heats up from the
afternoon blast, I'm essentially "cooking" the plants.

I moved the remaining plants to the backyard so hopefully this addresses the
problem at hand.
