i was wondering where to put my n.sanguinea in my room sunlight comes directly in about 4-5 hours in the summer (now) i was wondering where should i put so i get no direct or what should i cover my window with? i tried paper but its too thick i think Bearing in mind this is 8.30 pm or this
took 1 hour after the first (9.30pm)

Sunlight is best! I grow mine in full sun 6+ hours. But as you might have guessed you might have too acclimate that baby to sunlight too reduce damage.

but its a highlander so i shouldnt give it direct at that window i get 4 hours of direct sunlight

Direct light should by fine as long as it's getting it's share of cool temperature at night. It's not an Ultra highlander anyways.

Good material to reduce light slightly from a window is fleece thats sold to stop plants/shrubs freezing.

Link is just to show what i mean.

If you are concerned about the light being to strong get some white 50% shade cloth and put up on the window that actually equates to 38% but its better than a sheet of paper or a tea towel , looks to dark , but so hard to tell from a photo if looks like too much still go to a 50% black shade cloth ,you can make a frame up out of wood , staple the shade cloth to the frame and just put it in the window easy as
