I am thinking of making some improvements to my cab...specifically thinking of mylar or panda film or whatever. as of now it is white painted metal...so I would get some approrpiate materials and cover the inside walls....reasons? (1) more reflective? (2) insulative to retain more heat in an otherwise cool environment (my garage).

So I found this reference - FOYLON - @ 95% reflective with excellent diffusion, very durable. MYLAR - @ 92- 95% reflective. FLAT WHITE PAINT - @ 80-90% reflective with excellent diffusion. PANDA FILM - @ 80 – 90% reflective and light tight.

Anyone have any opinions or should I just leave well enough alone?:roll:

I have not tried Foylon, but I prefer Panda film for my application..Mylar is noisy and you have to apply it properly, or you get wrinkles and hot spots...I am fine with the lower reflectivity, just fine with it!

Hmm I like the looks of the FOYLON. It's pricey but you can wash it. Which is something you can't do with mylar. And let me tell you, that shit gets dirty from all the nutrient splash etc.

thanks...thats awesome...I went looking at the panda...and there's something called ThermaX....



I totally understand the issues with mylar....I have heard of the challlenges associated with getting it set up properly.....I think I'll keep researching this a little more....:blsmoke:

Boys and girls...I know this is ghetto but...you know the things you put in the windshield of you car to reflect the sunlight? I saw an add in some car mag for this special one made of foylon $30, I ordered one on the net and when they came there was 5 in the box....guess whats lining the walls of my special closet?

well its getting to be a challenge to take the girls out of the cab....and I think these might be the last pics outside the cab....too tall, and I feel too risky to possibly damage something in the process. I may seriously have to tie the tops over but that seemsto be something that I can still make a decision on. Otherw2ise, all's well, this Top44 is continuing to look very healthy and develop. I am getting a little anxious about the buds developing more substantially but really, get real, right ?? (23days........44days = 21 days left?) and that may very well be optimistic? it might be longer....I guess it will bdepend on how quickly she matures in these next weeks ....... ENJOY!:blsmoke::peace::blsmoke:

well and these are the twins....the BigBud girls, also doing well. a little shorter and less developed, but continuing on their own growth curve. Certainly no worries, they are very healthy and do not appear at this point that they will pose the same height challenge that the Top44 does, but then they have longer to go as well.....I should see where they are in another week, and then re-check that statement! ENJOY! :blsmoke::peace::blsmoke:

Hey T.
Your plants are looking great.

Hey guys and gals, they have mylar car light blockers at the local .99 cent store. I don't know if will work for you or if you even have a store like this. But if you do its only .99 cents. Also the homedepot has a big roll of bubble mylar its in the building area.

I herd from the local hydro shop that there a panda film with one side black and the other side like a mylar or better.

I have the black/white poly that I got from my hydro store and I love it. Very easy to work with and giant ass rolls. I'm fortunate he sells it by the foot.

They looking fucking great man....so so healthy and green. You def doing something right my friend.

I share your concern about the Top 44 though man. At 3 weeks flower I would expect more than that from a 'fast' flowering strain. The few strains I have grown have always had good bud development by week 3 and really start showing the potential at this stage. But all you can do is let her do her thing. I'm sure if you keep her as healthy looking as she is, she will not dissappoint you. She just may take a bit longer than 44 days! ;)

Good luck man! :joint:

thanks....preciate this feedback.....I do expect that she will take longer....at 19 days.....she was barely started in preflower.....and she was slow in the preflower....and then she continues to be a little slow....I know she looks good....but I keep wondering if I am missing something cuz the development isn't quite on par? but then I look and see how healthy she is and try to be satisfied with that? :blsmoke:

Ya, I have the panda film set up in the whole veg area and flower area, but I will be adding some mylar film and tape it to the panda film with some grilla tape I guess its very strong tape and water proof.
I love the fact that I can spay the plants and just wipe any exc. off.
I just finished the flower area yesterday. Man its a big difference, my eyes still hurt.:mrgreen: I guess I will have to go buy some blu blockers.
