Morning Sunlight vs Late Afternoon Sunlight

Marijuana plants love direct sunlight at most any time, but it is said that the plants respond particularly well to early morning sunlight.

During my current potted guerrilla-grow, which I only get out to in the wild about every other day, there are two locations (within 40 feet from one another) that offer a (reasonably) great amount of sunlight throughout most of the day...

Location One, which is where I have them currently, offers an extra hour or more of early morning sunlight than Location Two does.

Location Two, however, offers probably an extra hour and a half of late afternoon sunlight than Location One does.

Since these are late-season Autoflowers, I believe every little minute of high-quality direct sunlight will help my little girls out, and so I wonder what the opinions are amongst you "advanced growers".

Would my plants get more benefit from early morning light than they would late afternoon light?

The area I'm currently keeping the plants offers an extra hour (maybe more) of direct morning light, but a little bit less daylight overall, dig?

I have two greenhouses. One is Situated on the compass points, facing due South. The North side of both greenhouses is wood siding. The second greenhouse is situated facing 30 degrees Southwest. The first greenhouse consistently produces 30% more than the second. In most places, morning light is more intense than later in the day as smog accumulates. Go with the morning light IMO.
