Re: reflecting sunlight?


Hi Nick,
I was asking my husband about that and he said that he thinks (not positive now LOL) it would burn the plants since the light would be more concentrated that way.

Subject: reflecting sunlight?

Hi all,
I wonder if anybody has any advice regarding reflecting sunlight?  My
zucchini plants (on trellis, both horizontal and vertical) have grown so big
and bushy that they are beginning to block almost all the sun from a couple
of my tomato plants.  I started to wonder if it is possible to reflect light
with big frames of aluminum foil (or anything else).
Does anybody have any idea if this is possible?  Would it even reflect the
correct type of light?  Would it burn the plants? etc...

any input will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Nick
