I love a good “make-do” setup- all of mine have been; I always work with what I have before I buy. I did just buy my first powerful (but budget) LED, and need to set up a good veg space.Got my second 60o Watts hps/metal halide today so 3 plants spaced perfectly between the 2 lights I will use the HPS for fliwering don't worry about the mirrors they work for me quite nicelyView attachment 4858731
well the feedback i got was mirrors cause hot spots but whatever i have them already so i use them so far so goodI love a good “make-do” setup- all of mine have been; I always work with what I have before I buy. I did just buy my first powerful (but budget) LED, and need to set up a good veg space.
I found your thread by simply typing “mirrors” into the search, because I have a few laying around and before I go buy some mylar I hoped to hear some science-backed pros and cons as well as testimonies good or bad on the use of mirrors vs. other reflective surfacing.
My theory is that because they reflect so refined and directly that the “footprint” or path of light is narrowed to the range of directly to-and-from the mirror rather than increasing it’s coverage area through diffusion. This also means that any less reflective colors or mediums that reflect in the mirror will maintain their “weak” light position (directly to-and-from the mirror) rather than being covered by the diffusion of a powerful source-light.
So, if there is a greater amount darkness the mirror will reflect that as well as the room itself does, whereas a material with mylar’s diffusion aspect will reflect/diffuse light from your actual lights over the darkened areas as well, rather than reflect directly back at itself.
Anyhoo, will still probably add a mirror somewhere, perhaps underneath, to reflect my babies-first-LED SF-1000D, haha
I read up on it and probably not worth it for me. It actually causes cold sinks, according to the article I linked. Checked another article from High Times for positive feedback and saw none I remember. Sure, maybe not the best sources but I could understand the reasoning. Not that there can’t be a benefit under the right circumstances.well the feedback i got was mirrors cause hot spots but whatever i have them already so i use them so far so good

Anyhoo, just my two cents.
Happy growing, looks good!
