That's not the best choice.. the plants need ventilation. Air should constantly be circulated in and out. Hopefully the top is at least a screen of some sort?
Foil is a bad reflector. It can create hotspots that burn leaves. If you have to use foil, use the dull side facing out.
Leaves clawing down is usually a sign of nitrogen toxicity, but in this case could be over watering?
You're definitely going to need more light for a good yield.
Can you give more information about the grow?

Dont keep globes too close to tops either , i position mine in a triangle one globe each point around plant.

I'm not expert by any means mate, but is your water unchlorinated?
