    Yes, scorch. Be careful about splashing drops of water on the leaves, they act as mini-magnifying glasses - and you know what they do in sunshine!

    Well there's a scorched relief (releaf?? lol). First year I haven't used the green shade netting so that will be going up soon! Was trying out just using bubble wrap but it loks as though its not diffusing the light enough.

    Cheers all! :)
