"Shade" counts as hours of light (in regards to "Flower" vs. "Veg"). But it 's not enough light for proper growing conditions (either Flowering or Vegging). You're going to have to get more hours of direct sunlight on those puppies; either by trimming some trees or moving your plants back and forth.

^what he said , shade won't make them flower but it will grow you some light airy buds that don't weigh much

I just harvested 3 sativa x that were in the shade the majority of flowering. They only got about 3-4 hrs direct in the morning and 2 hrs at the end of the day. No wispy buds to speak of.
Harvested around 10 ounces from 3 plants.
2 plants in 5 gal and 1 in 10 gal pot.

So yes you can still get a decent harvest growing in part shade.

Goodluck
