Using mylar sheets in my tent

[navy66]

I have a 4x5 grow tent, with 2 flowering weed plants. I want to bounce some of the overhead LED light onto the sides of the plants. I believe I have to curve the mylar sheet away from the plant in the middle but TOWARD the plant/light at the top and bottom of the mylar sheet. So the sheets act like a "radio dish" around the plants. But two AI bots are telling me the mylar should curve CLOSE to plant in the middle but AWAY from the plant at top and bottom. So, convex or concave, which is a relative term? It seems to me that my "dish" idea makes sense. AI says, "Yeah, intuitively, you'd think so -- but you're wrong." I don't think I am. Here's some artwork. AIs version in on the right side. In MY version, the curving would move AWAY from the plant. Help?

Don't overthink this. Just put the mylar up on the walls. Instead of trying to build a parabolic configuration, just buy a more powerful light if what you have isn't getting the job done. Or add some side light bars.

It's called science, bro, not overthinking. Did I say the light isn't getting the job done? Did I say I'm not using side lighting already? Thinking is actually a good thing -- try it. Either answer my question or go away if you cannot. You clearly cannot.

@navy66 not a good start with your last comments. Your new here why don't you post a pic of your tent with the door open seeing is believing.

Fuck you. There was nothing sassy or asshole-y about my reply. I offered you an alternative solution to trying to maintain a concaved or other unusual shape to a sheet of mylar, because Mr. Wile. E. Coyote, you apparently haven't really thought this through. So now you've brought out the asshole in me. Game fucking on.

Don't chastise me like I'm a kid, Mom. And learn how to spell. And you're using "seeing is believing" incorrectly. Hot mess.

Just saw your politics. Confirmed. You're a fucktard.

Good luck

 

[Ninjadogma]

And good luck constructing a sphere out of mylar

You need chill out
Keep it up and your gonna get bounced.
Seriously, ninja is a good dude,
Whenever you have yourself pointing the finger at anybody always remember, you got three pointing back at yourself, my friend now if you wanna learn to grow weed or ask questions or be part of the community, that’s fine but the way that you’re coming across is not very friendly and it seems that your politics might be askew yourself, now you can either assimilate and be cool or you can bounce. It’s up to you and relax on ninja again he’s a good guy.
