  1. well since it tis the season...can i go and buy some reflective wrapping papper the kind that looks almost like tin foil but doesnt really crinkle like it..will it work good for reflecting the light?
     
  2. GC member Chicken posted last year about how he has done just that before. If it's mylar wrapping paper then it would work just fine.
     
  3. you gotta be carefull, some reflective paper actually absorbs light, and the ones that dont some times concentrate the heat and light to a specific point causing burns on the leaves. personally i would paint the walls gloss white it works great, thats what i normally do, right now covered with a couple of solar blankets but i experimenting with solar blankets but they absorb also so im going back to white...peace:smoke:
     
  4. Budda, I recommend flat bright white rather than gloss.

    I am not sure about those space blankets. I bought one and as I was unfolding it, I noticed when holding it up I could see through it. Not sure how much light is being reflected if light is passing through.
     
  5. i cant paint the walls as there are no walls really..kinda confusing to explain but you can hang stuff up...im gona buy some and see how it works...i have so many lights thoe i miht not need it
     
  6. Just buy some mylar, its got the best reflectivity for plants.
     
  7. solar blankets suck man, i was just trying them out but your right about the flat bright, my bad........................peace:smoke:
