"a study on different soil types concluded that 100% perlite in a hempy bucket is the preferred way to grow. it yielded 1.5 grams more on average than the other soils tested in a series of control groups etc. since this is in the beginner section i would not recommend a hempy setup" This makes it sound like Perlite is a soil. Perlite is amorphous volcanic glass, is inert and has no nutritional value. There is nothing difficult about hempy, and I'd go as far to say that the Hempy method should be recommended to new growers especially.

too much can go wrong. in a hempy setup there is a small reservoir in the bottom of the planter filled with nutrient solution. perlite will not buffer the ph this is why i recommend soil to a beginner more margin for error
the way i do hempy is with a 40 lpm airpump and 6 inch bubble disc in in the bottom with supercoarse perlite throughout

Technically, whenever you debate issues, you are "arguing". Can't be helped. The approach can however. If one person constantly tosses out insults as part of their argument, they begin to lose credibility. That has been happening quite a bit, and I try my best to stay away from that approach. As you can see, some others do not. Including the OP, who has been quite eager to insult those who question his views. That is when it all breaks down.

This is a discussion forum. People are here to share views, but they are also here to try to ferret some valid information out of others. If I tell you you should do XYZ to be more effective at something, I should give reasons to back up my assertions. I should also be willing to argue my point if I am challenged, and admit when I am wrong when presented evidence.

What would modern science be if anyone could come along and present hypotheses and not be challenged to support them? It is part of the process of finding the truth of the matter. If I tell you that masturbation causes blindness, I better be prepared to give you evidence it does so!

The OP presented several points he believes to be valid. Others disagree with him on many of them. At that point, should the newbie who reads two conflicting views just toss a coin? Or should said newbie find out why a certain view is valid? The latter obviously.

Gardening anything is a learning process for most people. There are several ways to get a good product at harvest time, but there are also several ways to screw things up.

I have a tip, but its not for improving yields.

Put some books underneath your pot plants. That way when your weed grows, you don't have to change the position of your lights right away, instead you just take out a book in order to lower your pot.
