So I have a rectangle scrog net I built it is 30"x36" under a radiant 6 hood. My question is should my rectangle screen be parallel with reflector or should it be perpendicular? I hope this make sense. Pics included are my setup today, I just turned the screen 90 degrees last night so at the moment(in the pics) the reflector and screen are perpendicular. The last picture is from feb 1st 3 weeks ago when I first topped them

"All HPS bulbs put out a rectangular footprint perpendicular to the length of the bulb, regardless of the reflector... If you envision the arc tube on a HPS, theres basically zero throw from each end of the bulb, while all your light gets thrown off the length of the bulb in a 360 degree arc, or cylinder." Found this post I have no idea if it is true but if so I think I have my setup correct. Any ideas?
