So I'm growing outdoors but I'm extending vegging hours indoors in my bathroom. It will also be used all day on very cloudy days. I'm having 3 x 23w (6500k daylight) CFLs placed on my bathroom mirror. I've got 4 plants but I only know 1 is female. Hopefully I can get another one and destroy the rest. Anyway, I want to build a cheap reflective hood but I dont know what shape to give it. It seems the dull side of aluminum foil is best for DIY and the room is naturally ventilated by 2 half-open windows.
...Would one just cover some flat cardboard on top of the lights or maybe give it some curvature?
...I heard of half-cut soda cans? how would one use them? just one on top of each light? seems small?
...what about using plain white cardboard? fire hazard?
....what about a disposable aluminum rectangular baking turned upside down? or will it bake my plants?
