I have struggled with leaf burn for a few years now. I'd like to put up a shade cloth but don't have the time to routinely take it off and on. The patch is in direct sun in northern New Jersey climate - would a 30% black cloth be OK for this? I want to make sure I don't stunt growth too much with it always being up.
Many thanks!

What range of temperatures do you have, I think you would go by that ?

i used 50% and still grew 988.
i would get 40% if i could.

I think 30% would be good for you.

22% could even work for you.

I just switched from 22% white to 30% aluminet. Hoping it refracts more heat.
