    Reflectors

    Can I get a reflecter that will cover a 10x10 area?

    It's actually 12x8, but 10x10 should be fine. Anybody?

    this place has a 4 foot one... you can add a light mover and you are set!

    It mainly depends on the wattage of your bulb and lumen output. I would suggest a 1000 (or 2) with a reflector that will cast a wider footprint (sun systems sungrow). I wouldn't suggest a parabolic, I am just not a big fan of them. They work, but if you think about how the bulb is positioned in them the light has to travel all the way to the reflector then down to your plants. Where-as if you have a horizontal reflector 50% of your light would travel straight down to your plants (losing less lumems)

    NO

    A light mover is what you need with a good hood but there is no single bulb that will provide enough lumens to cover that area by it's self.

    I agree . . light movers work great and will cost you less on your power bill. Good call Zandor
