You could even take this onto a larger scale to determine the sun exposure of your entire backyard, front yard or the whole property, and track everything in one chart. If it’s a large garden area, you might want to map sunlight exposure in the different sections of the garden as they come into the sun, or move into shade. Keep measuring garden sunlight in each area every hour until sunset.ĭIY chart to measure sunlight in your garden Then every hour, check the garden area again and write down the garden sun exposure. Then make a note of whether it’s in full sun, partial shade, filtered/dappled sun, or full shade. Take note of the garden sunlight exposure at that time. To measure hours of sunlight in your garden, start early in the morning right after the sun rises.
You might be surprised to realize that your “full sun garden” is really a partial shade garden… or that your “shade garden” gets more sun than you thought (aha! no wonder those shade plants are burning!). If you haven’t figured out how many hours of sunlight your garden gets yet, or you haven’t done it in a while, it’s a good exercise.
