I decided to do a sun survey of our yard. I have a vague idea of what parts get some sun but I couldn’t say this spot gets x hours and that part gets y hours. I decided to remedy this by taking a sun survey with my digital camera. Basically I walked through the property digital in hand and snapped each area making sure to get some landmarks in the photos. The image has the date and time on it. By retaking thse images several times a year at different times of day it will be possible, using these images and a chart, to plot the numbers of hours of sun each area gets. Of course this will change as trees grow and are cut back but it will give me a good idea of what areas are possible spots for the multitude of goodies I need to find homes for.
