My personal opinion lah:

If you grow plants on balcony, the light intensity is not the same all year round. The best thing you can do is get a bamboo blind for your balcony. In the hotter months, just pull the the blind down to give it some shade and if the sun is not so intense bring the blind up. Also, I think it is best to have a water urn to bring up the moisture content in the balcony area for your neps.

I grow my bical under 20% shade and it is growing well.
