Alright, I've been reading through quite a few threads about lighting and problems getting light to reach the undergrowth of a plant. My question is this, what about auxilary lighting on say the side of the plant? I drew a little picture, forgive the crudeness. I wanted ya'lls opinions on the idea. What would you see as the pros, the cons?
Damn...a little microsoft paint scribbling is too large? If someone wouldn't mind telling me how to compress a file, I'll post the little drawing.
Until then I'll describe it. What I had envisioned is setting a reflective material on a wall (I had envisioned one doing this in a closet or some other confined space), then having your pots containing the plants right in front of it. On the other side shining into the plants from the side and to some degree onto the reflective material would be a light (pick your fav), and then a light above the plants as normal.
