Hey everybody, first post, first grow
I had a budget of around 300$ which was fine but I couldnt get lamp reflectors for some reason.
I should have had more $ but cigarettes is sucking money! (quitting any day now)
Anyway, to my point.
Had no reflector, so I had to come up with something.
First of all, Is it really necessary? To me it looked as if it were helping. But I heard doing without is not much different.
After giving it much thought, I came up with an idea to use a4 paper, 3 layers and roll it up in a cone shape over the lamp and clip it together.
It work quiete well but worried it could catch up fire.
Also the lamp burnt some chemicals from it and it stenkt my cab' for some days
Anyway, - Should I use a reflector, have any home-made ideas?
-I would post pics one day, I just have yellow leaves prob that im trying to fix and Im proud, but not enough to upload em yet.
Trying to fix 'em so far not (N) problem, heat issue is being observed and will lastly check pH balance as I couldn't get pH test.
P.S no mylar, because I can't find it except for far big cities.
Much love, fell in love with growing
