I am cheap

[kevins4runner]

I build my own stuff. I won't buy mylar, but the dollar store sells foil for a buck. Shiny or dull side out? I would think shiny out, but am hearing rumors of the dull side.:icon401:

You go cheap, you grow cheap. Walmart sells Mylar for a buck fitty. Camping department. Emergency blankets. REinforce all edges w/duct tape for easier stapling. Enjoy. Tinfoil is crap.

40 miles for Mylar, I don't think so. Don't beat around the bush. The walls are white, should I not use foil ?

How come all the potheads shop at walmart?

Do not use foil. White's fine. Wal Mart means frugal besides there are so many of 'em there most likely will be one anywhere.

[qdavid]

Oh yeah, flat white's fine. Glossy (shiny) not good.

Thanks for a straight forward answer, my walls are gloss. I will figure it out. My tomatoes will thank you.

You can get an emergency blanket at any surplus store.

I hardly think that is beating around the bush.
If you don't have a camping store nearby, use white paint. FLAT.
