so he'll be here on saturday which gives me two days to move our girl from her nice roomy grow room to a very cramped spot under a shelf, which we plan to cover stealth like....

but here's the problem... we need to minimize the lights we pack under the shelf...and were wondering if we could use mirrors to maximize the available lighting??? I've heard nothing but contradictions on the mirror matter. Also her schedule is a little inconvenient for grand-dad's visit as well ...we need to switch it but..we're bout 2weeks into flowering so how can I do this safely?

Thanks

Should have thought about Gramps before starting your "girl" and maybe Gramps is into bud and you don't know it???? As for the move, just do it. You aren't going to upset the apple cart too bad with a change in the time of light. If you do it too often, you may experience re-veg but two weeks in is nothing. Go for it.

Yeah I would go for it too. Maybe offer your grandpa a lil smoke? Anyways, one down side i found to using mirrors is they can burn your plant. So you might want to be checking on it quite regularly to see its not suffereing.

mirrors suck if you need a quick fix for reflect...use white smooth constuction papper...just make sure you have a little room..an how long will the light cycle be fucked up for...

FYI mirriors arnt as refletive as you might think. this is because the silver in the mirrior takes alot of the light energy out..... about 50 % reflective...maybe less. but better than nothing

I heard some one on another post say something about buying that crappy wrapping paper from the dollar store, you know the kind, the one thats shiny on the inside, and hanging that. they claimed it worked pretty well for them. similar to mylar if not nearly the same material or something. i think its worth a shot.

I'm sure you could duplicate your plants current environment in a cabinet with some cfls and mylar. As far as keeping the light inside goes, maybe tape a towel up inside the front of it and then install a lock on it to keep ppl out!

I changed my light cycle like three weeks into flowering. I went from 8 am off -8 p.m. on to 8 p.m. off 8 a.m on. I changed the cycle so they would be awake when I was. I am now entering week six and they are just fine. Listen to the other guys , mylar is the way to go I hvae tons of it . I think it is more reflective thatn say like a whaite wall.................good luck~

Mylar is 100% reflective whereas white wall is a bit less, depending on gloss, satin or flat finish. Mirrors, no no! Mylar, yes yes. White butcher paper also works well and comes in big rolls that can be had at Costco or similar places.

Ok, where do I buy mylar, and what is it used for besides growing, on my 2nd grow rite now and using tin foil, I know its preety dangerous for it can burn them, like to upgrade...
