Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2018
VERY EASY to set up and all I had to do was add water, balance PH, and add nutrients. I think the entire set up took me like 30 min to complete from start to finish.
The ONLY problem I had was the shipping but that had nothing to do with the product working or not. The shipping was a day late of the time range they give you. (( Example: 3 Sep 13 - 8 Sep 13 it arrived 9 Sep 13 )) No biggie but if you are going to have an estimated time of delivery at least be between those dates. :)
Thank You!
You might need to drill a hole though. Mine, while the water indicating tube was already installed on the bottom, it wasnt on the top and had to mount it. Came with a screw and pre drilled hole, however the hole that was pre drilled was way oversized for the screw, and off centered, so I just drilled another hole next to it and used a self tapping sheet metal screw; hose mounted perfectly. Adding the pods was a nice touch along with the hose.
Dont let the price fool you. This is a great kit!
The remainder of the setup went well. The indicator/drainage tubes are all bent into curves from being shipped in the bucket, so they aren't straight when they are clipped in place. I plan on getting rid of them anyway, so I can connect all the buckets through that hole to a central reservoir instead.
I've got 6 of these kits and have 4 installed, with the air pumps running for 3 days now. So far so good. I'm worried that the pumps/airstones won't provide enough dissolved oxygen to the water, but I don't want to buy a several hundred dollar meter to find out.
comes with all in the pic but the clay pellets. if you read the description carefully it says it comes with growstones.
other than that its great. there is a different air pump than the one that is showed in the pic. this one has a control dial to control the amount of air pumped. blue water level tube is just perfect and the best thing is that it is already installed. i was very pleased to see that. 6' net pot fits perfectly. three starter Rockwool cubes. the only thing i am going to replace is the o2 stone. it is okay but i would like a better one for my plants. all in all i am very pleased.
thank you amazon once again
