Hey, I using 6-42 watt CFLs to finish flowering a large plant. Looking for the best way to make a reflector to support 6 sockets. I already have a peice of thin shinney sheet metal to work with. Any suggestions??? Also is it best for the bulbs to hang vertical or horizontal, they are the sprial type.
Thanks

Bro look at my reflector thread in the groow room & design section.

I would suggest putting the bulbs sideways to maximize the light output.

cardboard,mylar,glue or aluminum tape, 2 -3 socket bath vanitys. i think u can figure out where im going with this.

u can hang them either way. when i ran cfls though i had 9 - 42w and they were all up top. i gave my tops the maximum light. it takes longer to harvest because u get less light penetration but as u take off some tops the bottoms start to bud with increased light. it took me about an xtra 7-10 days i will say to harvest 4 whole plants that were 42" tall.
