Is it worth it to build some light reflectors above lights.

Ok, it's not all that pressing at the moment. But I am thinking about building some simple light reflectors out of some mylar lined cardboard to wrap around my lights. I will also be adding 4 more lights, so I'll do this for all of them.

The plan is to build one reflector for each pair of lights, so I'll be making 5 of these in total. Is this worth doing?

Here is a picture of what the plans are.

At lowes they sell a light meter for about 11 bucks that has a ph meter also for water and dirt

Yes, a reflector can improve lumens by as much as 40%. I use cfls and use a reflector made from mylar. This isnt the best pic but will give you an idea.
