Stealth Hydro LED Set Up

Got a Stealth Hydro Bubbleponics kit on the way. Also got a UFO 5 Band and Fox Farm 3 pack with additional Solubles. Anybody have experience with a set up like this? I will post as it goes. Stealth should be here tomorrow or the next day.

How long ago didi u order it it took 2and half weeks for mine to come keep it posted

can't wait to see how it looks & performs. GL

Get some supplemental cfl's to go with it. The led is cool but just does not have enough penetration or coverage. It is a good light to have in the mix.

I've been tracking it and so far it's been a week. Says will be here Thurs. August 18th. Kinda slow huh....but I'm patient. I've even been dreaming about it. It must be all the DAYS spent reading Roseman's guide and anything that refers to the system. I saw this kit and ordered it right away. A local shop wanted 3 times the money for a 6 place DWC with a stand. ALso...I found a site selling fox farms goods for 25% off retail...all three solubles for $65!!

Just keep reading until it gets here--the first couple of weeks you are getting up and running you will be back here often checking little things while you figure stuff out. Personally, I'd tell you to pick up two 12" airstones and some air tubing/connectors from the local pet store. I immediately upgraded the bubble disc to this setup (an airstone positioned under each row of 3 plants) and have never looked back.

Next, I'd advise you to pick up a good PH tester as I relied on the vial test kit at first and the PH meter is so much easier. I opted for the Hanna 98129 and have no complaints. A PH level that creeps up is one of the first hurdles you'll need to clear.

It's a nice setup though, so enjoy the ride.

Does anybody have any experience with the UFO 5 Band? I'm wondering how far I should have it hanging up off the new sprouts. Right now it's 12+" above and I don't know if I should slam it down or take it even higher. Any good hands on advice would be excellent. Thanks

you can put that light as close as a couple inches away. goodluck. im trying LEDs too this week once my seeds come up

All the low down on LED set ups

I'm glad my UFO has already been modified to the latest standards. Impressive performance really. Can't wait to see it myself!!

Finally an update. 3 HOPEFULLY ladies at 3 weeks old switching to 4th week feeding schedule with fox farms tri-pack and solubles. UFO is amazing and the extra CFLs aren't hurting anything. Just some bagseed so it's anyones guess on strain. Thank you so much ROSEMAN for all the helpful hints!!

Well...I had pics up last night and now they're gone. I'm working on it!! I think they look amazing. I'll update when I get home.
