Hopefully, some Catt. growers will chime in with specifics for you and your setup.

Edit: reread your question and noticed it was about light length/duration, not intensity. Sorry.
Actually it is about intensity also. Too bad I only have one type of shade cloth at 70%. However I imagine cumulative exposure of outdoor light matters too as intensity builds up?
