  1. Hey everyone kinda new at growing and I need some advice on how I would make a reflector like this. I can't buy the reflector cuz its too big for my box. I can get all the materials, I already have the bulb n some sheet metal I had laying around. What else do I need? is sheet metal ok?

  2. Dro Checkout the inexpensive diy grow light thread... i think it maybe what you are looking for hope this helps..
     
  3. how big is your room
     
  4. all you need to do is reflect light, hell for the longest time I shaped out of cardboard and taped white paper on it for the reflection.
     
  5. I'm using a GL40 16" x 16" x 47"
     
  6. the light +plug is about 16 in long so you might have to hang it . I think? L x w x h
     
  7. Or maybe something like this? I just want a single bulb reflector. Maybe 2 if it can fit.
     
  8. Heres the pic.
