Mylar as a reflector?

Is it ok for me to leave the mylar like this? , basically im asking will the mylar catch fire and melt or create a saftey hazard?

my cfls are touching my mylar and have been for quite some time never wraped a bulb though try using a pop can and wrap the can with mylar then u wont have to worry about it getting too hot

Yeah, i was gonna use a soda can anyways, but didnt have a chance today...thats why i went the mylar route, tommorow i will go out get drunk and save the cans lol

cool that will work better and safer

better?

wish i could get drunk off of pepsi

Bit of a weird comment lol

You are using one bulb for each plant?

I thought that flourescent lights were needed in the vegetative stage - if you don't use metal halite...

It seems i have a lot to learn

Are the bulbs being used here CFL globes? - only one bulb per plant? - i have just read that CFL lights use 50-80% less energy than 100watt flouro lights, but is this still feesable when you consider you can grow more plants under the old 48inch flouro globes??

I might be doing it wrong, but hey this is at 17 days and they seem pretty happy:
