William B. : Interesting Idea! Here's an out of left field type answer or parts of one . We all have memory pictures of early greenhouses That had a ''white wash ''painted
Or sprayed onto the glass in mid late summer to reflect some of the sunlight - mostly to reduce the GH's internal temps .
I am speculating that your idea might actually Increase the amount of Light Energy absorbed and transmogrified into heat energy.This could be good or bad. Translucent
covers are (I think ) not the best material at ether end of your Growing Season when transparency seems like the best thing for the plants !
All that said- as an experiment with not too much out of pocket expense it sounds interesting !
If you give this a try please share your progress with us ! for the Craft ! Big AL
