You can hit 1gram per watt no matter what light you are growing with if you have the skill. Hitting that 1gram per watt mark is a bitch to get there, and not many actually make it. I have been sitting at like 1/2-2/3 a gram per watt for the past year or so.
I am going to be sealing my room and running Co2 at 1500ppm consistantly next time, so I am hoping to get a little closer to that mark. I think that Co2 and experience are the ways to hit that 1g mark. Co2 will not be the "cure all", but if you have the experience, and have been hitting like 2/3 a gram per watt without it, I think that would be the best way to make it there.
I was running a 400watt ballast kit from HTG for quite a while with just a home depot HPS bulb. I have since switched to a 600watt ballast kit from HTG and actually bought a horticulture bulb. Going from 400watts to 600watts, my yeild nearly doubled.
well put, but its makes me sad knowing i need to move to a 600 soon
