I've discovered SEA OF GREEN growing and using the STEALTH bubbleponics system and I want to help those that use that system.
It is all about SIMPLE, FAST AND EASY.

Stealth Hydro is growing undetectable, with NO Hot lights. With these compact spiral tube flourescents, I can actually touch the bulb and place it 2 inches about the plant with absolutley NO danger of burning the plants.
Stealth Hdro is about growing FAST, I mean from seed to harvest (if you do the sea of green method,) in 9 weeks, or from clones to buds in 7 weeks.
I have many pics posted under GROW ROOM Setups, under R for Roseman.
I will check this site every day if possible and answer any Hydroponic question I can answer.
If you normally grow outdoors, you grow 5- 1/2 or 6 months, with half daylight and half darkness. If you grow indoors with 24/7 lights, you cut that time in half, to about 3 months. If you provide food or nutrients, 24/7, instead of only when it rains or when you water and feed them weekly, you cut that 12 weeks to about 10 weeks. If you provide rich oxegen 24/7 to the roots, instead of only when you cultivate, dig, hoe, feed and water, you reduce the growing time to even less. IF your GROW nutes are perfect, scientifically designed and blended for you, then you get faster growth with the thickest stems and plants like christmas trees that you will ever see.
so if you have any questions, let me know.
I'm here to help.
Hey, I'm a friend of God, He sure blesses me.
Peace,

Roseman

here are some step by step start up instructions:
To start with, what kind of seeds are you useing? Try to either purchase some hybrid indica seed off of the internet, or try to find some from another grower. If you can not do that, maybe you can find a bag of sensimillia that had only a few seeds. With this system, you are going to try to grow a "sea of green" if you have all females.
You can google "sea of green, growing marjuana" or go to GROWFAQ here, to learn more. Basically this is a way of growing small short plants and continually harvesting buds. If you start with just any old seed from commercial pot, you are going to have 2 to 4 females or 2 to 4 males, and the remainder will be the opposite. It just depends on a lot of circumstances. If you start with cuttings (clones) you can get 100% females. If you use just any seed, you will toss the males, leaving more room, and will want and can grow larger plants.
Basically there are two ways to go, 1/ is sea of green, fast buds from small plants, or 2/ big plants and more buds that take more time.
To get a fast start, you can put the seed in wet paper towels while you are setting up the system. You'll want to put the wet paper towel on a plate, fold it over several times, covering the seed, make sure it is very wet,and then place a bowl upside down over the seed to make sure they are kept in the dark and stay wet. The only problem doing it that way is the sprouts are very delicate and you will need some tweezers to put them in the rockwool cubes.
YES, you can simply directly put the seed in the cubes to start with and that is faster and easier.
Let's start at the beginning. Try to use a secluded closet, with the wooden dowel or long rod overhead that you hang clothes on. You will need to get a thick rope or some thin chain, to hang your lights on. If you have the two lights, get two lenghts of chain, (or rope) and make a three foot long loop. Rinse out the tank with clean water. Try to find a small box, table or something like a large ice chest to put your tank on INSTEAD OF RIGHT ON THE FLOOR.. Be soaking your airstone in clean water, soak it over an hour or two.
Those DUAL Spectrum II lights are the very best. Take your rocks and put them in a large strainer or collander, and rinse them, and rinse them again, to get the dust off. Ignore the instructions that came with them about useing the pumped water to rinse them, that is too much trouble. Just rinse them first in a bowl.
Get your tank and lights in place, and then take one of the cups, and fill it 2 inches deep with the hydroton rocks. Then put your rockwool cube in it, (take the plastic off the cube), and do not squeeze the cubes. Put one seed in the center of the cube, and put the cube in the cup, and put the rocks all around the cube. Do the 6 cups and put them in the lid,then put about a half inch of rocks on top of each cup, leaving the cube top uncovered. The top of the cube should be a little less than even with the top of the cup, or sitting an HALF inch lower than the top. Fill the tank with 5 gallons of the best water you can find, anything but city water. Use warm, room temp water. NOT HOT!(I use well water cause it is free) Now set the lid on the tank, and raise one side to see in , and make sure everything is connected good. Learn to use your hands and not your eyes to check the connections. The "hub" has to be connected to the underwater submersive pump. The end of each tube is inserted into the top holes of the cup. You should run one inch of tube into the cup, right up to the cube, touching it. You can start at the very beginning with the 6 cups in the lid, EVERYTHING CONNECTED, then load the cups.
I bought some large fishing weights for 82 cents and used fishing line to tie them to the air stone so it would stay in one place on the bottom and not float up. You must be careful about what you use to anchor the air stone down to the bottom.
Now get a one gallon jug, and mix half the GROW nutes in it, and half the micro nutes, in warm water and stir it and stir it. Drain it through a tea strainer to catch any undisolved little rocks or clumps. Now pour some of it into each cup or cube, just enough to wet the cubes. If you over soak them, they can possible colapse and you don't want that now. If they colapse later,that is OK. Now find 6 large styrafoam cups, or 6 small styrafoam saucers are better. Paper plates or disposable plastic plates will do. I use the saucers. I cut the bottoms out of the saucers, making a 4 inch disc or leaving them 4 inches in diameter. I cut a one inch hole in the center of each. I put one on each cup. They hold the moisture in the rocks and they block the light from the seed. This is not permanent, it is just for now. DO NOT TURN THE LIGHTS ON YET. Turn it all on, the pumps, leaving it in the dark, with the pump pumping the water to each cube, and the air stone bubbling and wait 4 to 6 days and you should see sprouts coming up. DO NOTHING DURING THOSE DAYS YOU ARE WAITING TO SEE THE SPROUTS. Have two or 3 extra seeds still in the wet paper towels, in case one of the seeds in the cups do not sprout. Then you can put that sprout in the cube. As soon as you see any sprout coming up, turn the lights on. With the Dual Spectrum lights, you can and should place them 2 or 3 inches above the plants. They do not put out any heat and the closer they are to the plant, the better. IF you place the lights 2 inches over the plants, you will have to raise them twice a day, due to the rapid growth.

Good Luck and I'll tell you more as you grow. In 8 to 9 weeks, you can be harvesting buds!
PEACE,

hi
rose man cool gallery

is it possible to make the system automated after getting experience first useing the stealth hyro bubbleponic system

whats the max yield you think you can get from that system

thanks alot

fishing weights...really good idea for keep the stones directly under the net pots!

nice read and excellent help for people with these systems! I recently bought a stealth hydro bubbleponics system myself, I was wondering when planting the seedlings in rockwool does the rockwool need to be soaked in water for 24 hours before doing this?

The rockwool does not have to be soaked and should not be soaked. The cube can collapse. The water from the tube is enough.
I've learned I do not have to start with seedlings, I can start with seeds and that is better and easier. I start with clones now tho.
I also learned to set the cube down deeper in the cup, half way, at least. It will appear shorter to start with, BUT it will get roots into the water faster and grow faster.

Make the system automated?
Yes, they just introduced a coupling, so you can hook up two tanks together, or better still, hook up to grow tanks to a reservoir tank. They also have a new drain plug too. Hey, tell them the Roseman sent you. If you mention the word "GROWTIPS", as referenced in the Newsletter, you can get a 5% discount.
