Could I plant in a shady woods spot and still get a harvest?

only way to find out is try, or get a light meter and check how much light there really is there

You will get 2 solid months, maybe 1 and 1/2, of growth, which will result in 3'-4' tall plants. The more sun, the better. I'd expect them to grow decently, provided you supply sufficient nutrients every so often. The maximum amount of sunlight, though, the better. Keep an eye out specifically on the color, light-medium green is what you want. Deep green is good too. Just keep an eye on the 'yellowing' factor. The lighter-green the more issues. If it goes yellow/brown, inspect your soils pH. Could be nutrient lock. (I've unsuccessfully dealt with that myself )

u wont have massive colas, but theyll bud and youll get a harvest

try your best to cut some branches without making a scene, and use good soil and some nutes. and see what happens. the more sunlight the better. makes for denser nuggets.

even the ambient light from the sun, in the shade of a tree... contains more intense par radiation than any one bulb can provide...

it will be sufficient...

I agree with what everyone else said. You will get a harvest, but it obviously won't be as much as if you grew in a well lit area. I've grown in an area with just a few hours of direct sunlight before and it did better than I would have guessed. Nothing spectacular though.

The lack of sunlight might cause the plant to start flowering right away.

idk about that, the plants i have that get good direct sun, more have sexed out already there, while my plot that gets the least direct sun, only one has shown sex, not sure if theres logic to it, or completely random, but thats what ive observed. my thinking is that more direct sun = better faster growth, allowing ur plants to sex out faster given they have optimal light, where the ones with less direct light grow slightly slower, and inturn sexing later. this is my theory atleast, as i said could be completely random
