The reflectors in indoor growing

Indoor Growing: the importance of light.
Hello to all fans of biogardening and indoor growing, now we will treat a secondary issue at times for many who, even before the "followers", not fully focused on the concept of reflection regarding the 50% frequency of light (the other 50 % are the frequencies that reach directly, or direct light hitting branches, leaves and flowers / fruits). The choice of a reflector "standard type" stuco "that is provided usually with standard kit hps can 'do to the case your (little investment and yield enough), but however the shape and the surface of reflection optimal optimize not a little the result of the your indoor garden.
The reflector stuco or standard and 'the classic reflector 50x40x40 of openness, with shape 45 ° to the outside that allows light to cover an area of approximately 100x100cm not more' but that could penalize some plants for as regards growth and flowering, thus creating 'the classic effect in your garden "on the hill." So we will have 'in most areas' near the area of reflection plants more 'developed and fruttificate and the surrounding area where the plants come out of reflection from the best, most plants' lower and lower absorption of light frequencies.
So invest in a reflector and 'very important if you want to optimize your space and have the best! Keep in mind that the more 'is homogeneous light on your area, most plants do not have unequal among themselves, without sudden changes of vegetation and not a little thing, you'll be saving energy! Exactly .... more 'sfrutterete reflection, that you will have less dispersion of lumens, the lumens of your bulb that will hurt way too low in some plants.
The positioning of the bulb: the cultivation landscape where the reflector will be 'parallel to the bulb, and' important to emphasize a key placement.
As we said 50% of the frequencies of the bulb more 'direct will hurt the plants in an optimal manner while the remaining 50% or more in the' top, will bump up against the reflecting surface and return on our piante.piu 'the bulb and 'far from the surface of the reflector more' interested in the lumens put more 'time to arrive and once reflected, will be less effective then, place the bulb the more' close as possible to reflect in order to have a sudden thought, powerful and without dispersion. The wings to adjust for example, and 'a revolutionary reflector for some fundamental reasons and for those who want the best .. well .. I highly recommend it cost? High, but believe me it is worth ....
Cool Tube
And 'some years we hear about this revolutionary Cool tube reflector which has the specifications regarding more' traditional 
"Stuco" or "adjust to wings" (great) very different.
First of all because 'must work simultaneously with an air extractor (200/250 m3 / h) to eliminate the overheating determined from the air static.
Using a fan located near a reflector that "moves" the air under the lamp, giving the illusion of achieving the same result but not 'so'; primaditutto 'cause the first stage and' to separate the bulb hps with a tempered glass resistant to high temperatures (pyrex) of so that we can already 'eliminate direct contact with the plant, in the second place the air channeled in the cylinder of crystal that includes the lamp, will be' sucked through a tube in aluminum soft directly outside of our grow room, through the recall of the extraction thus eliminating ', the static air below the bulb and obviating to dangerous burns of our fruits / leaves and the natural decrease of temperature.
If the bulb ratio power / distance from the apex of the plant and using a standard reflector 'bulb with a 400w high pressure' of 50 cm, and a 600 'of 70cm, with the cool tube avvinarci go to the plant to 20 cm and than the alert level and this applies especially during the flowering / fruiting inflorescences where / fruits, are more 'subject to burns and thus risks' to block maturation.
Another major advantage, and 'the increase in brightness' and the degree of penetration of light frequencies, each bulb has its own range of penetration and potential within an area that is perimeter depth' then, considering growing a plant with a potential 'of a vegetative / I 1.30 lumens (units' active power), will go to interest, with regard to the actual production in the first 50 cm of the plants and flowers in the shade but will not produce the hints of flowers.
Using the cool tube will go to appeal, not 2/4 but the plant but rather '3/4 with an increase of production at around 20%.
Adjust-a-Wing
The reflector in question, "adjust to wing", and 'perhaps the most' popular with indooristi half a world first of all for its innovative design and successful.
That's right, 'cause unlike COOL TUBE or SPUDNIK (new version also "air cooled" as the cool tube) and' the market for some 'years. Its particular shape called "gullwing ago is that the light is distributed in a homogeneous way, for a speech of bounces of the light, up to 1.75 linear extension for 1,20 / 30 in width.
The speech as regards this amplification of the reflection, compared to other reflectors more 'economic and' also due to the hammering of the surface of reflection and to the possibility 'via a slide rail of being able to approach to the maximum the bulb hps or mh to the surface of reflection thus' enhancing the return of the flapping frequency and return on plants
The SPREADER, and 'un'accessorio (included) required for the completion of this strordinario rifllettore,' cause breaks and distributes the light frequency and light headed, bouncing on the surface of the tray located just below the lamp, giving the chance to 'so' to approach considerably (20cm) to adjust the wings to the plants .... you can just do yourself a gift, it's worth it.
