lol sweet. you gonna put up some pics of it after? and wat would u suggest for reflectors? tin foil isnt that good, i kno mylar is really good but could i just make like some kind of reflector and put mylar inside for the reflector or would a store bought reflector work better?. cuz i dont wanna go out and put out a shit load of money for some peices of metal if i dont have too. haha

i'd think foil painted with a flat white would be an excellent reflector
cheap, low weight, and fire proof

lol would that really work?
well, i'm having very good luck with aluminum flashing that was pre-painted white
i think the principle is the same, just with foil you have low strength
but if you can add some 'ribbing' or something to strengthen the foil at bit, just low on the flammability side, then you have a white surface that you can place as you want
the trick is to get that surface where you want without it becoming a pain
i probably will stick with aluminum flashing myself, it's been good to me

just a quick description on the quality of the high you get after dry/cure
nothing fancy, just enough to say how the bud turned out
o ok, the smaller plant was much more stinky and sticky and gave mostly a really intense body high, the other plant was more mellow, couch lock/ head high and smelled like grass which kinda pissed me off till i smoked some, the bigger plant had the better weed by far, some of the best weed i have smoked and i been tokin for many years. Peace. I plan on startin another grow in september:D

mighty interesting, i like all smoke reports on grows i follow
don't know if you'll do any curing, but the 2nd bud sounds like it would be real whup ass after a month in the jar
real happy for your grow, a few cfl's can work magic in the right situation
