Exclamation im 8 weeks in
i've been growing for about 8 weeks and my plants are looking good to me.

i know they have some defaults lilke little holes in the leaves, even though there are no bugs; i think i just burnt some of the leaves.

another problem i have is no money for grow equipment, i have no reflective material so my bottom leaves have been comming off, does anyone know of some household reflective material i can use.

i have 3 26w cfl's i believe that they are bright white or full spectrum, i also have one daylight bulb; i know this isn't efficiant lighting buts it is the best i have. my plants are one week into budding these pictures are from 1-3 weeks ago.

can anyone give me advice on what i can do to improove my plants on a limited budget.

i have 5 plants one of them is very little and isn't worthy of being surronded by it's older sisters, i figure it is better than nothing.

Aluminum foil. Shiny-side out.

Here's what aluminum foil looks like glued to some plywood.


See how the color/intensity of the reflector matches the bulb? That's want you ought to want when selecting a good reflector.

The walls are painted flat white, for reference.

I would only use foil as an absolute last resort. Flat white paint is like 10 times more effective.
