Well ill for sure be interested in your weights. If you were using a 1000w led and C02 in that 4x4, if you were using good genetics, you could possibly max out at 2lbs. But since its 600w, and your not using c02, im very curious as to what your weights will be. Id say your growth rates are comparable to active hydro systems and not passive. Like I know your running drip which is passive, but your grow performs like my active system. I just dont understand how increasing the run off increases the growth rates. I also noticed your EC is way higher than mine. I veg at .5 ec and flower at 1.0 max. I also never drain my system, only top offs. Everything I put in, my plants consume. I monitor individual nutrient levels basically warming myself up for a Aquaponics trial one day.4x4 with 4 plants in 3.5 gallon airpots filled with coco coir, under a 600w HLG-600R. Midway through this grow I ran out of room and had to swap tents for a taller one. The tent is in a bedroom. There is a 6-inch input duct fan running 24x7. There is an AC-Infinity 6-inch exhaust fan blowing out at variable speeds depending on temp and humidity. There is no CO2. The plants are midway through 6th week of flower. I have a drip irrigation system doing drain to waste, currently at 7x daily.
Im not trying to talk down or up about your grow either. More less laying out all my available data for ya so we both can understand it all better. I have alot to learn apparently. . it just doesnt make sense how wasting nutrients can increase growth rates lol.. but it does.
