Both will do fine mate, worry more about a good light preferably a 250 hps or more and good air flow.. fans air intake and outtake. Happy Growing from Ireland :blsmoke:

yeah I started off with white paint till i could affors a decent reflctive material and quite honestly havent noticed any difference with the plant quality but it definitely looks brighter in the room.

whats the tin foil reflective percentage? is white paint better than tin foil?

I like mylar.

I posted once telling someone who wanted el cheapo to use aluminum foil and got blasted by half a dozen peeps. Seems Aluminum foil will cause hot spots on your ladies.

Use mylar. It's worth the extra few bucks.

"cheap mans mylar" - wrapping paper from the dollar store with shiny backing. works like mylar without the hotspots of the tinfoil.
