Once again i am new to this and just getting started, i've been reading as much as I can and looking at pics, in all the pics though i haven't seen mirrors used to reflect light. that was my game plan is it ok?

the wall of the space should be painted flat white (this reflects light the best). Better still get some panda film or Mylar (these are both sheets of plastic, black on one side and silver or white on the other). Not only do these give you excellent control, but reflect much better. You can affix the rolls of panda/mylar with PVC (duct tape). Do not use mirrors, they reflect light poorly.
