a great and cheap way to get good light reflection is go to wal-mart and buy an emergency blanket! theyre like a 6x8 piece of mylar and it works amazing! and its less than $3! if youre growing in a small space like i am, youll def have some to spare too..
if you like potato chips the inside of the bag is basically mylar FYI

Hahaha, I did that.

Actually, I took the unused lid from another tote, used double sided tape to put some of the emergency blanket on it, and then put two light sockets on it. Each socket has an extension and two plug-in sockets for a total of six bulbs. Makes a nice over-head light.

Ok. So I still have some stuff to add and change around. But I changed the location of my grow, not as ghetto as before but it's still up there. Check it out on my journal here.

Damn. That's what I forgot. Y splitters.. I was looking at lowes but couldn't find them, then totally forgot when I went out again. Maybe I was looking in the wrong place
