id use foil as a last resort

you could paint the inside white

but mylar would be best and its pretty cheap

you can get a 50ft roll for $20

DO NOT USE FOIL!!!

foil creates hotspots in your grow room which harms plant leaves and during flowering can damage bud formation.

Either buy mylar or paint it matt white, (not gloss even tho it looks more reflective) trust me, dont risk your grow

thanks for advice......i'm gonna take it down,but i wont be able to paint it white as i've already started my grow and the plants are 2weeks old

Man put your plants else where for a day or two and paint the inside with a flat white paint and you'll be happy, just air out the cabinet for a while doors wide open , peace and overgro the world.

I use white paper instead of white paint, damn, it works so great!
