So, Im trying a Hempy Soda Bottle grow. Ive got 7 2 liter bottles full of perlite/verm with a hole 2 " from the bottom. The plants are a month old now and look pretty much like all one-month old plants. Some are maybe 5 ", some 3-4, all look healthy.My question is...should I spray paint the bottles to keep light off the roots? If so...what color? white? to reflect light and heat...or black, which might absorb heat from the light (600HPS). So far, being small, the roots are hidden inside the perlite/verm and I cant see them at all. Im assuming as they grow, the roots will approach the sides of the bottles and Im pretty sure they dont like light. (or do they care?) If it makes any difference, some og the bottles are clear and some are green/clear.(7-Up)
Or maybe it doesnt matter? They look pretty cool, see-thru, LOL, but I really dont know if roots hate light or not.
Thanks
