okay i know what the recommended material is for reflecting light..

mylar, white paint, panda paper, emergency blankets. and aluminum foil is not very reflective like 30 something percent..

how reflective is chrome paint??? and ive also seen, and read that some people start them out in 2 liter bottles and dixie cups and then transplant them... but also ive read that the roots get confused or something because of the clearness of the bottle... so if i spray paint it will that make it ok???

so to recap the questions...its

1)how reflective is chrome paint.
2)and how should i "light proof" a 2 liter bottle, can i use spray paint?

i also have miracle grow plant food, but the soil is pre nuted so i shouldnt feed them for a while right?? after i get answers i will start the grow journal...well that and after they sprout...

they are also random seeds... from calli i think... or aberdeen, wa... im not sure..
 
#1.. "poor".. flat white is best
#2.. duct tape ;)
 
=P i just used the last of my duct tape to fix my house speakers, is there another solution?
 
my brother inlaw used 2 liter bottles and just painted them black. the plants seemd fine with it. but i've never used it so i would wait for others to come and give more advice. good luck
 
i know i have just planted seeds and seen them grow out of the dirt before, but is it quicker to germ them and then plant...???
