Hi Matt - Check out this thread to get your answers... Multi Spectrum Bubbleponicsâ„¢ Complete Kit? I plan on buying the same kit, only with the 3 CFL light reflector kit (flowering configuration). It'll provide more lumens than the dual light kit. Lumens=buds. So if your going to spend the money, spend a little more and get the kit with the most lumens! Otherwise you'll end up spending more money anyway to buy enough additional CFL's to get a decent bud crop. I too think it's a great idea. I like the whole 'one stop shopping' concept of getting a complete kit ready to assemble and grow the day it arrives. Beware, you will probably be inundated with replies from all the DIYer's at GC who will preach to you endlessly that this is too much to pay for this kit and you should build the hydro unit yourself. Read the whole thread above and you'll see what I mean. They mean well, but I know they are wrong, so their comments got annoying. I did my homework, and I don't care what the DIYer's say, you cannot buy everything included in the bubbleponics system (below) for substantially less than what StealthHydro is charging you for the kit. http://www.stealthhydroponics.com/product.php?xProd=121&xSec=2 Sure they are charging you some extra $ for making this an easy 'one stop' solution. If they just charged you for the parts how would they make a profit? You may be able to buy all the parts for the bubbleponic kit seperately at wally world and save a few dollars. But who wants to spend all that time (and gas money) shopping around for all the parts and building the thing. Isn't your TIME worth money too? I want to spend my time GROWING, not building. If you get the kit, get the one with the 3 socket CFL reflector and lights. They put out 315 watts and 17,000 lumens, which is plenty of lumens to bud your plants. If you decide you need more lumens for budding, you can always buy an additional 105 or 125 watt cfl and hang it from a socket in your grow box. That's what I'll do if 17,000 lumens doesn't seem to be enough to get the buds I want, although I don't think it will be a problem. I'll subscribe to this thread. If you do buy the bubbleponics kit, post after you set it up and get it going and let us know how it works! I'm definitely buying it, my mind is made up! But I'm not working right now and have to wait til my cash flow gets better to buy it. Even my wife is excited and can't wait til we can afford the kit!
lol wow this has been brought up so many times. if you wanna throw away $300 on something you could have paid 1/3 of the price to just build it on your own, then go for it. Basically yes it'll work and everything, but they're ripping you off big time. And you'll more than likely end up upgrading the light system anyway.
