I like my leds alot. The low heat...game changer. Idk if i could pull 1.7gpw. But if i get these lights up heigher and get my veg room to support more than a twenty inch plant. I can prolly pull 1gpw with relative skill. If i wanted 1.7. It would takr serious training. Prolly 5ft plants, in at least 7gals. Thats still prolly a bit of hopefullness. Right now on one 1000w i pull around 600-800grams. Ranging from the low yielder to a high.
i did ~370g with 220 watts of led lol so not large scale, but I don't see why the setup wouldn't scale well. Just upped the wattage in the tent to ~275 watts, hopefully can fit a pound into my space with the upgrade. Basically I'm trying to figure the least amount of light for an elbow, lol.
Yeah, you'll get better help in the hydro section.. Hate to beat a dead horse but organics and hydro should only be mixed by people with the experience, as James said it takes a keen hand and you really have to know what you're doing.
I should note here for Hamish and all; that Hamish's grow environment (the exterior environment he fights to control with his grow environment) is hostile on a level many of us are unfamiliar with. This could be a variable causing the fox tailing and production that is outside of the "bell curve" anecdotal results of switching to MH from HPS.
By the time you know you have sick roots, the plant has been suffering, and if salvaged will still be stunted at least. One of my big keys to happiness happened a couple of years ago, when I swore off all additives and stuck to basic nutes only. Change the solution out weekly, and voila ! No more root issues.
Since the fat purple massacre, the two times I've seen pm has been on lower fan leaves. Strikes me as odd, since the FPs were attacked on the buds [ not in ], but also beginning low and progressing upwards. Your description of air pockets in the buds would seem to me to pertain more to bud rot.....but hey, I'm a newbie to the powdery mildew scene.
Ahhh man... the stuff I cant get here just tortures me. Running all Osram. Old school. Plantastar and Powerstar. Best I can get sigh...
Pm spores like to fall downward. If you are controlling existing PM and only see it on lower fan leaves it may just be not managing thorough enough on lower branches. I think where you find PM on a plant is simply dependant on whether it "crawls" its way up the stem from medium or whether it falls as a spore from airborne source.By the time you know you have sick roots, the plant has been suffering, and if salvaged will still be stunted at least.

Man mybtents 2x the size..I need LEDs and jus use soil..LOL unless I can get this hydro sys worked out... Alota hard work for a hurt back poor boy..loli did ~370g with 220 watts of led lol so not large scale, but I don't see why the setup wouldn't scale well.

My plants weren't 5' though. Ranged between 2.5-3.5'.this is the space with 3 of the 6 plants left. The key I think to the grow was having strains that finished at different times. Basically I chopped 3 out, then the other three filled up the new space, chopped another one, the last two kept filling out. And over the period of about a month I chopped out 6 plants. If they were all the same I don't know that they would've fit the same. Granted, if I used clones I know I can probably yield the same or better just based on the fact that I know how to get the most out of said strain. Whereas I'm running testers all the time ATM, so I have different strains I don't know running every cycle.

Soil would be fine. I think you made your rdwc/aero system to complicated when you should get some grows under your belt before experimenting with weird system shit lol. I did soil for years before I went to ebb n flow. Then dwc then back to ebb n flow. Now I do combos of everything depending on space and media available.
