anyone what do u guys think i should do with my light hang them above the plants or leave them the way the are.

 

[josh878]

is it better to just hang the lights over the plants. or i have a peace of cardboard that is covered in tinfoil and then i cut holes to hang the light through so the light just reflects down and hits the plants.
should i leave it like this of just get rid of the cardboard and hang them.

you want the light reflected toward the plant, otherwise you are just wasting light...

I grabbed a roll of aluminum flashing from a home improvement store. Made one out of that. If you want, you can polish it to a mirror finish. (thats a great stoned task! wax on, wax off)
You can cut it with regular scissors, give it a crease or 2 to ad rigidity
