Yeah I know everyone tells you tin foil creates hot spots but I never had that problem. I don't know if these people who say that know from experience or know from what they've read ? But I've used it 3 times with a 250 hps and no problems. I've never used it with a larger light, since I normally use mylar or black and white. It works fine on a small scale or cheap and dirty setup. And the individual that mentioned taking it easy on the ferts is 100% correct that's the last thing you want to do, but if you do make sure to teach yourself the signs of over fertilization. The best example is my buddy that loves to grow but seems to kill everything he grows and won't take advise at all, his budding plants were showing signs of slightly burnt tips and others showed nutrient deficiencies I told him the plants are being over fertilized and that his nutes where locked up from the low Ph he told me that they where in fact under fertilized as a result of the deficiencies. He thought the Ph of the soil would not be an issue because he had adjusted the waters Ph to 7 only problem was he didn't need too and never adjusted it after adding his crude mix of snake oils(ferts and juice). So keep that in mind over-feeding can cause burnt tips and deficiencies, also dark waxy green leaves. I have some picture from that guys grow and will post them so you can laugh and learn.Dont use tin foil, youll get hotspots. Flat white is way better than tin foil. Find some "panda plastic". Great stuff!
Agreed. I've used tinfoil in the past for a few grows and never had a hotspot problem. It seems people who type that are just regurgitating generic advice found on the internet, with no experience of doing it themselves.Yeah I know everyone tells you tin foil creates hot spots but I never had that problem.
