which way should my light be the downwards way of sideways ..........................

[altwnyguy73]

I got CFL 45watt energy saving light i am trying to grow one plant it is only like 2weeks old now anyways which way should my light be the downwards way of sideways with a alumiin relfector made out of a soda can.

the first pic is the downwards way also i got the spiral one (on the left)

the second and third pic is the sideways with the relfector but instead of the cfl in the pic i got the cfL spiral kind


So which way is the best for my plant Put it sideways with the relfector or just put it downwards in a hanging postion

side or up no matter...props on the can idea....good thinking. These lights are best used for veg(18 yrs light) and you need red spectrum when you flower (switch your lights to 12 on 12 off to trigger budding).

If moneys tight and you want to start small...go buy a tube Fluorescent fixture and a red spectrum bulb(example- phillips C4 & L4s) for $20.00 us.
The results with added UV in your light spectrum will, to say the least...be noticeable. You see the plants main defense and protection for UV is to produce THC crystals...yummm....lol.

Down the road go to an HPS light if at all possible....the result astound you iafter starting like this....peace
