Hi...I welcome any opinions on my Chinese hat lighting system....Yes there is a Chinese Hat Reflector with 3 CFL bulbs and a LED Bulb in a 3 + 1 fitting....sitting on top of a Dryer Drum which unfortunately is not reflecting very well inside...but what I am trying to see is with the light being reflected round the drum what will happen with my Tomato plant in a container sitting on the piece of polystyrene...will it grow or even die??

This is just an initial try as in my mind is really how will it work on a plant planted in soil in the drum underneath the polystyrene and as it grows the Chinese hat and reflector drum will be raised with the growth providing light 360 degrees around the plant.....

All I need is a decent light bulb but I will buy some different ones including Grow lights to see if I can strike a happy formula...unless I get shot down first....

Cheers Ron.
