Str8 was growing with LED's and managed about .75g/watt as well. He was using 450 watts. (and much more experience using them than most)

Same g/w ratio, less overall wattage though.

Really, I would expect a noob to come in more around the .5g/watt arena, but the same principle holds true no matter the light type.

So if you want to replace a 600, and get the same yield, it would stand to reason that the wattage you put in is going to determine the grams you get out.

I believe that's the only way we can compare nuggets to nuggets as far as the 2 types of light are concerned.

I'm sure St. Wingnut can chime in with some numbers of his own that may screw my whole hypothesis up. I would still love to hear em tho

Sounds pretty lucid to me , ya rare element.
