Lacy or Gauzy Curtain Enough?
 

Hi! I am thinking of using a sheer lacy curtain or a "chiffon"-type curtain to shield my orchids from the sun? When I say lacy - I mean the whole thing is lace, it has holes. What I mean by "chiffon" is like see-through negligee type fabric.

Would these be enough protection or I need something thicker?

Thanks again!!:yawn: :(

Depends on what window you're using and how much light comes thru. It's definately worth a shot to see how your 'chids like it. I would monitor closing to see if the leaves are getting sun burn. :nod:

It also depends on what kind of orchids you are growing in the window as some like and and take more sun than others.......basically, we need more information. LOL:biggrin:

Yes I believe it will cut down sun intensity. Only a light meter will say for sure.
