Default Reflecting Light..

Hi...The season is nearly over down under and I am reviewing everything ...Unfortunately my greenhouse is located close to the house on the north side and tomatoes appear to suffer due to this.... I can only think that the house is stopping light getting in even although the suns trajectory is South East to West most of the season ...
I am now wondering if most of the northern side might be better with a reflective material on the inside that will reflect the light across the fruit....

I would be very grateful for any comment on this idea ..

I have attached a small sketch ....Many Thanks Ron NZ
