MIcro Grow PLeASE help

Ok so i have my box set up and about to cut out the spots for intake and exhaust but i was just wondering befor i go out and spend money on mylar.....can i just line the walls with TIN FOIL is that reflective enough? instead of the mylar

Ill have pics up later =D

No tin foil is terrible. Use mylar or just paint the walls white. Tin foil causes hot spots and kills your plants. I've never used them but emergency blankets from wal mart have been used with some success before. Also black and white panda plastic works great too because you can wash it a lot better than mylar. Whatever you choose good luck

realllllyy?
very interesting why is it because its not totally even?
this means i have to redo my whole box
Thanks for the info though

Yeah aluminum foil is just not a good choice, it will prob make your box a lot hotter than it should be too. A few coats of white paint and you will be good to go man no worries

ive seen people use the reflective material from car windshield sunlight shields if youre trying to to go cheap

dude just get some mylar lined wrapping paper... Thats the real cheap way to go... It works fine, its like 1 mil. so obviously you gotta be careful cleaning it but Hey holidays are here. My buddy did both his rooms for like 10 bucks.

about 100' of mylar, gets expensive

cool thx guys

even the inside of potato chip bags, they're mylar also, and a lil thicker

get a tin of flat white matt paint (not gloss )if you cant afford mayler .....its the next best thing

hey man thx for the potatoe chip idea never thought about it and deff gonna do that
