Lose the foil and go to your local superstore and buy some emergency mylar blankets from the camping/fishing aisle.
Elmers spray canned glue works for a while and washes off.

I ran to the store last night, bought an emergency blanket, along with better reflectors. Next on the list is an inline fan, and I'll make a homemade carbon filter for it. The grow room should be complete :)

a box fan with some sheet metal clips for the carbon filter.kill two birds with one stone.
also i dont know all your lighting but those plants look sweet.kinda short but huge.
on the mylar,its like glass in some aspects.it likes to crack.what i did was tape the edges with clear packing tape.in the bottom of skirt.i put duct tape with pennies.this kept the mylar from flapping as i didnt glue mine.i tacked it and the packing tape keeps the holes from tearing.
also keep cigs away.a cig tip will burn a hole no mercy.my mylar looks like shotgun blast.lol.4years of reflecting its ass off.you can wrinkle it and it holds those wrinkles,thus no reflective hot spots.i took mine down once and wadded it up.afterwards i hung it but the wrinkles stayed.then i thought more diffusion.winning!

I'm using 8 23w CFL lights, with a homemade reflector, keeping those lights close to the tops helps tremendously with height issues. I know some say they aren't worth a shit, but these plants seem to be loving it :)
 
#65
really big leaves but is that genetics or your feeding?got some guano in that soil?
 
#66
i went back and reread the thread,probably do have guano in there.but my question.those things could get 18 feet tall if he doesnt do the flip.i always doit at 12 inches.with a fourway.it kinda works for indoor sog and less chance of wind breaking them outdoors.the lower profile keeps wind from blowing over pots plus it camouflages well too if you ever guerilla grow.
on my tablet,the picks look to be 2-3 gallon pots.am i mistaken?

Get some of these reflectors at home depot worked just fine until I could purchase some t5'

Im in 1 gal. pots I am flipping this weekend, now that I have all my ducks in a row, kinda timed it perfect.

Cool I was running mine like that with cfl's for my seedlings/clones very inexpensive my t5's add up to about a dollar a day which is perfect for me

Yes! Seeming this was my first grow I didn't want to spend a BUNCH of cash, this worked out very conveniently.
 
#71
Yeah definitely try to save while you're learning cfl's are a worthy substitute to t5's as long as you're getting proper stacking of nodes the t5's just made it so I get uniform light coverage.
 
#72
In your opinions, can you tell if my plants are an indica or sativa? I have no idea :)
 
#78
Is this a hermie?
