Ill be the first to say i dumped my money in many other places while establishing my grow. New ballasts, bulbs, filters, blah blah $ $ $
Anyways....
I look at this piece of shit $20 reflectors and immedietly im bothered. Im not utilizing the bulbs, i see half of my light being wasted.
But befote i go out and buy a dozen new reflectors inwanna hear it from you.
I never thought those big xl hoods were any better. And vented lights, nah... im an open wing dude. They may not be the prettiest but the parobolic seems to be the winner but ive never tried. I am however trying vertical lights with no reflector. If those do well. Ill either stay the course or go with parabolic. Meaning round reflectors and vertical bulbs.
But some of you already have the anwser to my questions. Which is most efficent?
No reflector (vertical bulbs)
Parabolic (round)
Xl hools (big square white)
Open wings (cheap polished alum)
Like i said, id like some input before i go buy 12-16 of em. Wdyg think?
