What is scattered light in flower cultivation?

1. The meaning of scattered light

Scattered light is different from direct light, they are two different lighting methods. The light that the sun can directly shine on is direct light, and the light that is not directly shining but in the very bright area around is scattered light. Generally, flowers prefer scattered light, which can absorb sufficient light without worrying about being burned by strong light.

2. How to contact

For some flowers that like scattered light, if they want to be exposed to scattered light on a daily basis, they cannot be placed directly under outdoor sunlight. They need to be placed on a south-facing balcony, but the strongest direct light must be blocked to prevent the leaves from being burned, but also ensure that the flowers are in bright light. In addition to using windows to block the view, you can also place some larger plants in front of the flowers to allow them to see some of the faint sunlight. You can also use a shade net to block direct sunlight by placing a shade net in front of the plant.

3. Notes

Some flowers only like scattered light in a certain season. When the sunlight intensity is not low in winter, they can be exposed to full light appropriately. However, some flowers can only be exposed to scattered light, so be careful to distinguish them when caring for them.
