Reflective Material Question - First Timer
    #234870 - 06/01/09 03:29 AM (15 years, 5 months ago)

I am just starting my first grow. I had budgeted for a complete setup, but it turns out a friend is giving me his lights so I have a little extra cash. I'm planning an automatic setup (Ive heard they're faster and plants are smaller) in a confined space. Fans controlled by cooling thermostat turn on when temp hits 77*. Ultrasonic humidifier for misting once a day. Space I'm working in is 27" wide, 36" deep and 36" tall. It's actually concealed in the base of a full-size upright fully functional arcade machine that I built last summer.

So, to my question. I've read that painting the walls of the room white is good, but mylar is even better. What I'm wondering is would something like this work better than mylar: http://www.shop.reflectivestore.com/product.sc?categoryId=16&productId=27

It's got a honeycomb pattern and is used for DOT barriers etc. I know its expensive but like I said, I got the extra cash. If you don't think  its worth it, can you suggest something else that could make this setup better?

Tape? LOL that will take a lot of tape. Paint it FLAT white. Not white, and mylar is the best really. Its your call ad there is only a few % points between the two.
