Was wondering if anyone had good tips for a closet grow, the lights are hanging above the plant with a lamp to the side of it. It doesnt have a reflector over it, and it wasnt made to support one above, any ideas on how to properly set up a reflector either above(to where it wont mess with the light fixtures place) or possibally around?
A good reflector?

here's a link to some mylar emergency blankets on amazon that could be cut down to size and affixed to the walls. Amazon.com: Emergency Mylar Blanket - 52" x 84" - Pack of 12 Blankets - EB-12: BP MEDICAL SUPPLIES

A nice sized piece of cardboard(12" x 12", or something similar, round, etc...) covered with mylar or flat white paint, would be a good improvement, as well as lining the walls with mylar, etc....Just cut a notch in it so you can slide it over the power cord, and place it near the top of the light. Then duct tape it or something so it stays there, centered. It'll work much better than nothing at all.
