Is that tinfoil your using? If it is tinfoil you would probably be better off doing without and either pain the inside white or get some mylar first aid blankets. Tinfoil can cause hot spots and burn the plant IMO

I just used what was cheap. I plan to upgrade it when the funds are available. Thank you for the feedback I didn't know tin foil creates hot spots. I just figured since they are 4 42 watt cfl lights it wouldn't get too hot.

My first time using 42 watt CFL I was surprised at how much heat they can actually throw in a confined space lol Just a white paint would give you some needed reflection without the risk of hot spots.
