So I had always seen mylar as a bit of grower "voodoo". I always knew it would help but I didn't think it would make any noticible difference. So I had some that I had ordered a few months back and I put it up in my grow area. It was a HUGE pain in the ass to get it all in there but I did. It also worked out nicely to get rid of that alien like glow that came from my HPS shining in the window at night.
The worst part was that it worked so well, it dried out some of my seedlings so much that I think they might be dead. I gave everything under the light a BIG drink and put my little cylindrical rockwool into the bigger rockwool cubes with the same sized hole. I know they hold water a lot better.
Anyways kids, the moral of the story here is that mylar=more light to the plants=bigger plants=less time they have to spend "fattining up"=electric bill savings!
