How much direct sun can Heartleaf Philos take? I face west, so if I leave these on the ground instead they would I my get sun from 16:00 until it sets.on the shelves, the sun starts much closer to noon. They weren't out on the shelves today, they were on the ground to avoid them getting sunburned. If I move them to more sun it will be slowly.

Your philos will not appreciate being out in the direct west facing sun.
I had many that did well behind the glass in the temperature controlled apartment with a southwest facing sliding door, but philos originate under a tropical canopy of trees, generally protected from prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, so they prefer bright filtered light to direct sunlight.
