I am building a grow room/tent in attic, what is the best size to do giving I might not not grow more than 7-10 at a time? oh and would a mirror help spread the light since its a small 400 watt?

Also using the white covered chipboard some old wardrobes were made off, is this the best?

I wouldn't go bigger than 3ft. x 3ft. What you're looking for in a reflector is this http://htgsupply.com/viewproduct.asp?productID=52115 it's black+white poly, black keeps the light out, the white reflects about 90% of the light - PLUS this is easier to clean than mylar and other reflectors. Mirrors are okay, but they lose a lot of the light they reflect

Unless you know howto grow good, that NFT can take a turn and kill ur crop quick.... I build and grow in NFT's for a living(actual gardening), and it takes some care and knowledge.

Strange Indipows never made mention of NFT in any of his posts and uses soil in his grow journal. NFT works like any other hydro, and it all takes some care and knowledge.
