no, its uneven reflections create burn spots on the plants. tin foil is no good

Reflective surfaces such as white paint on walls is great for indoor growing, but not really recommended for outdoor growing. You want to be as less visible as possible (camouflage), not be an eyesore from miles away so to speak.
