Mylar top/bottom

[mdb311]

Hi,

I have been using the Rollitup forums for weeks now to plan my first grow and I must say these forums kick ass!

This is my first post. I just had a quick question.

I just started putting up the Mylar in my closet. Do you just put Mylar around all the sides or do you need to put mylar on the top and bottom as well?

Thanks!

Hi, thanks. I have 5 feminized AK48 seeds coming from Nirvana.

2 clamp reflectors...each reflector will have 1 42w 2700k clf and 1 42w 6500k cfl.

2 5 gallon buckets, obviously doing just 2 plants to start out with.

I will be doing this in my closet. I have all 6 of the Fox Farms nutrients. My soil sucks I think, IDK. Expert Gardner Potting soil from WM. If it's a huge deal I would have to make a 45mile drive to the nearest store that has Fox Farms Ocean soil.

Putting that mylar on the celing is going to be a nightmare. There is a shelf in the closet. I don't know how I would hang my reflectors w/ the Mylar in the way.

Sure, I will let you know. Hopefully it will start this weekend. I am just a little stuck on the whole nutrient and soil situationd...once I can figure all that out it will be good to go. Waiting on the seeds to.

Can I germinate the seeds in staright Vermiculite?

Not really much need to put it on the ceiling as your reflector should reflect the light down.

I just have a 4ft strip running around my room from just above the height of the pots upwards.
