to reflect and conserve light, although there are better solutions to solve that problem.
mylar or even flat white paint work great. foil creates "hot spots" that can burn the plants.

ohh
so it's like you get more light on the plants

something made me think that there are thse choppers that can actually find the chronic, and you use tin foil to keep them from being able to find it. I don't know how i even thought this.

dont use tinfoil, not very reflective, but reflects alot of heat.

Mylar is best to use, but a white paint will work ok too

I have mylar on my floors, walls, and even ceilings, all areas are closed off by mylar. Dont use aluminum foil, Period.

Hi guys,
I have seen this stuff on e bay uk
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...348674287&rd=1

Has anyone got any experience with it. The hype says it blocks thermal imaging and is better than mylar.
Any ideas
Cheers
