Well guys i considering one or two strawberry cough plants in a bedroom with a 600w light...it a double sized bedroom so there is plenty of room and it shouldnt get too hot but i got the extraction etc covered...What i want to ask is,,,do i need infra red mylar on ceiling or walls given the size of the room or will i be ok with just painted walls and ceiling?and if i do need the mylar or just normal mylar is it just on ceiling and outside walls?what you all think?:rastasmoke:
just put mylar on the walls if you want to get the most out of your light and seeing how you will not be using near all the room you would probably be better off in a corner utilizing 2 existing walls and possibly putting up a temporary wall with mylar attached to it to reflect it back to the plants atleast on 3 sides of the grow area.
a 600 really only covers about 12 sq ft that would be about a 3 by 4 ft area.
you could do more than one or two under a 600w.
so you guys not think i need anything on the ceiling then?
Is this room devoted entirely to growing or are you "sharing" it with the plant?
PC:smokin:
no it inna room all of its own
ALSO while i on the forum board i have some canna food left from a year ago,,,,it couple of yr old now,,,it should be ok i guess,whatya reckon?
no need to reflect light with a 600w on a couple of plants. Bung 'em in a corner under the light and start farming.
didnt mean mylar for the plants sake i meant in case it is spotted by helicopter coz of the heat????
dont worry about being spotted by a hellicopter, it could be a water heater for all they know. you dont have a huge grow op. going on. just be quiet and carefull.
cheers dude................roll on the strawberries:)
I have never even heard of mylar that reflects infared, does that stuff really exist?
yea it does dude,,,infra wont pick up any heat from it i have some left from last op.....was bout 500 quid a roll when i got it but pretty cheap now i think
