For those who don't know, Stealth Hydro is a company that makes hydroponic & bubbleponic kits (stealthhydroponics.com)...

There's a product in particular they sell called - Dual Spectrum Bubbleponic 6 Planter Complete Kit

I'm interested in buying this product and am set to order after the holiday. The kit comes with
(a) 2 lights (blue and red spectums), one vegetative and one flowering light. (b) two parabolic reflectors.
(c) a bubleponic 6 gallon reservoir of nutrient solution.
(d) 6, 4in net pots
(e) flowering timer
(f) feed tubing
(g) air pump
(h) nutrient powders
(i) ph control kit
(j) 6 rockwool cubes
(k) hydroton grow rocks
(l) intructional manual and
(m) 2, 3way adapter extension cords

Does anyone own this product or know someone who has it? Anybody have their 2 cents of input about this product?? I've had a couple of good responses and would like to hear more :joint:

I would find out more about the lights (lumen output/watts) it doesnt even say what type of light they are.


ok after looking more they look like they come with CFL's and from the looks of it you will probobly want more lighting than the system they are providing you offers.

That would B a nice system if U are growing something small. I also think it's a bit pricey. There's a few reasons U'r doing this, One is to save money. To do that U'r gona have to spend a little up front. I use a water Farm system with a Pioneer VI light. The water Farms are a little expensive, but with about another $5.00 In modifications there a peach. Equipment is not a place U want to make sacrifices. If U can't afford a complete system all at once, buy a small one U can add on to. And don't skimp on the light. Light is everything ( along with good seeds).

May The Force Be With You.

For the price go to super center and buy the 30 gallon tub - make sure there are not a lot of holes under the handles. Then go to the fish dept in Walmart or aquarium store and buy the biggest air pump they have, some tubing and two big long air stone things. Then buy something to keep the air stones down at the bottom under your pots. Next buy the kit to cut holes for door handles or something that cuts a hole. Now buy a bunch of solo cups and make tons of holes or buy net pots. Next buy rockwool and hydroton grow rocks. Go to home improvement store and buy a bunch of CFLs and the refelective hoods.
You can make something better than their kit, ie better pump and lights, for less money. You can the buy kit and it will work great but you are better off using that additional money on more lighting.

Also, you are still going to have to buy a good PPM and pH measuring device and nutrients either way.

Well, I quit pussy footing around and I bought the Stealth Hydro Dual Spectrum bubbleponics system. I am so glad I did. My friend has spent two months and $100 trying to build and duplicate his own system, and he doesn't even have the round holes drilled yet. He doesn't get the premeasured nutrients or the FREE advise either. I got everything I needed including even the extension cords.I started with hybrid skunk seed and in 4 weeks I had plants about 18 inches tall, but they are the bushiest plants I or anyone has ever seen. I had to raise the lights an inch higher every day. EVERY DAY ! The base of the main trunk of the plants were as big as a quarter (the coin) and I just never imagined they could grow so fast and thick. After 4 weeks and 5 days, I started the flowering process and after 9 weeks, I have buds galore. I highly recommend it. The lights are perfect the nutes are perfect, and you can not get better results.

I've just recreated the stealth hydro for just 40$, i looked at those kits a few times myself and thought they looked pretty good i'm sure you'll be able to do a reasonable personal grow but the lights they send with it are not that powerful and you will struggle to get the tight potent bud that comes with using a hps.

I bought the Dual spectrum II lights, 85 watt each for my first grow. I am able to touch them or hold them without burning me, so I can put them 2 inches above the plants. I get two inches of growth everyday so I have to raise them everyday. I started growing because with Stealth Hydro system, I have STEALTH, I do not put out HEAT and I am undetectable. I am very happy with my two lights, the bulbs are $29 each, how can I beat that? after my first grow, i added two more lights, but i can not see any difference between having 4 and having 2 lights. I'm getting the same results.

You would get the same results because your not improving the amount of lumens, your just improving the light saturation.

The cheapest you can find the exact 85 watt Dual Spectrum II lights anywhere are $29.95 each, or wholesale by the case (12 in a case) are $24 each. and that is just the bulbs....and not the reflective holders, which are $5.00 each. How can anyone get two of them for $40, much less the holders, the $6.00 tank, the two pumps are about $15, the airstone, the hose, the tubes, the 2 multi plug Electrical Connectors, the 2 extension cords, the rockwool cubes, the hydronton rocks, the Grow Instructions CD, the PH test strips, the PH UP snf PH Down, a year's supply of Grow Nutes, Bloom Nutes and Micro nutes and the free support for $40.? It is amazing the B.S. some rookies will post here. $40 will not buy what you get for $160.
Peace

You should think about in terms of lumens per square foot. If you can get four 4200 lumen CFLs in a 2 x 2 area, you lumen level is 4200 per square foot. If you can get another two CFLS into that same area, your lumens per foot is increased to 6300.

There are also other factors at work, like lumen loss and reflected lumens which are common to all lighting sources. But, simply stated, your lumens do get increased if your lighting footprint remains the same.

Roseman has a huge thread on the stealthhydro unit already
right here...
https://www.rollitup.org/hydroponics-aeroponics/7897-stealth-hydro-bubbleponics-systems.html

It's very informative. I have one of them by the way it's a nice little kit. Great for 1st timers. I have also looked at this and am going to purchase it
HydroFlora Systems for Indoor Closet Hydroponic Grow Boxes / Chambers
Which I think is a great unit if you already have lights, like me. I have a 400w HPS/MH unit so I don't need the lights. I did however get the lights that Roseman has mentioned...you can never have too much light. Good luck with your decision, I hope you enjoy whatever you get.
