Light question

So I decided to wait till winter to use my hps light on my hydro plants, I currently have the plants inside a room that has a window facing east. The plants get good morning light. My concern is that once the sun passes mid point I no longer get direct light to them. Is the morning to around 1pm direct light enough for the pepper plants? The room still gets outside light but it's not direct .
 
The plants should survive but not flourish, will have less growth and fewer peppers, and there may be pollination concerns without insects around. Your climate is fairly warm so although more sun would be good, you may not need sun-up to sun-down, the plants may do just as well or better to be shaded in the evening.
