Hello!
I am about to take on my first grow and was wondering if using white aluminum trim coil would be a good reflective material for my diy-cfl-light-hood. I remodel homes and have plenty of it laying around so I was considering using it to make my own reflective light hood. I’ve seen posts on other forums suggesting to use aluminum venting duct, white painted wood, white plastic, etc. so I’d like to use something I already have if possible. The material is used for a variety of things, but I typically use it on window, door, and garage trim; however, I’m uncertain of it’s reflective ability.
Any insightful feedback is appreciated.
Happy Growing,
Mack Mittens
