UV light isn't used by plants, only visible light. Mirror glass blocks a lot of this light. Light has to travel through the glass twice, once on the way to the reflective film and again on the way back out. A much better reflector for plants is reflective mylar. RScott

No. They will not go through glass and they will not pass through the metallic reflection coating.
