Just thought id pop in this thread as iv just found something really really good for checking the sun exposure for your outdoor plots! It shows the movement of the sun throughout the whole year, the hight of the sun etc etc.. http://suncalc.net/  (the co ordinates its at when clicked is just a random clicked area, just putting that out there )

I was looking for something like this to stop me travelling too far to a spot just to find its no good. With the and earth i should be a lot more prepared, though earth is pretty outdated for my area.

@Exile420 Do you use the back in time function? Sometimes previous pics show a different season so it gives a better idea what the areas like.

Whilst I understand this is an old post, can anyone chime in as to how I can do this on my phone if at all possible?

@BLhazeThanks man. This is really useful.

I'm using google maps at the moment to try and plan my first GG for next year - Going to find a site on Google then do an onsite recce. 

Can anyone tell me if the small parcels of land trapped between motorway slip roads are a good choice? If so, I'll need to find a plot that is not overlooked by traffic cameras. The image is just an example, not the site I'm looking at

Thanks for this. I have a lot of research to do for next season and this will help a lot.

when you finally found a possible plot with eg maps....and go there yourself...

 

there is an app called sunposition....

 

even when overcast you see exactly where and what time the sun goes up and travel over the plot to sun set.....at this present date....

 

so if you spot now...you know what sun hours you get at harvest next year..  and at what time you get first sun on your damp buds...
