So my wife and I love to garden but moving up to the Pittsburgh area we have a shorter growing season and our back was fully treed. Last week I had a couple large trees dropped which I am cleaning up. This has created a nice opening in the center of our back but still surrounded by trees, our yard is tiered down so the lower level is south facing. I time lapse yesterday and it seems to get partial sun (overall about 1/2 of the area full sun that moves with the sun) for about 5 hrs, 2 hrs for full sun. This is now with the sun setting a little lower and trees full of leaves.
We have the structure figured out but before we jump in what are the thoughts on the sun? Below is a photo from the timelapse during full sun but you can see the trees below .
