Going away for a week...

[J0nathan27]

On wednesday im going away for 7 days. I have a micro pc grow with 2 plants. How can I keep them watered for those 7 days. They are about 3 weeks into veg and as soon as I get back im going to flip to 12/12. I would do it now but i dont want to stress them in flowering in that week. So how can I keep them watered? could I just water them good then shut the lights off so it doesnt evap? What should i do, leaving in 2 days.

Find someone to water them. Depending on how big the plant is vs the pot size and amount of soil, temps and humidity you will need to water less or more. I put solo cups into 7 gallon fabric pots and I start out watering every 7-10 days. Now 4 weeks into veg I water every 5-6 days.
Seriously I'd find a friend or family member to water them once while you are gone. Turning the lights off would be the worst way to do things. If you can't get help the only thing I would suggest is watering them real good. Water let sit an hour and water again to fully wet the soil. I'm assuming soil. Turn ac to cooler temps to help aid in not evaporating water and raise the humidity. What size pots are you in?

That was just an idea but ill see if someone can water em but if someone cant do that then what should i do?

Most new growers obcess about watering their plants and most of them water to often anyway. Soak them good before you leave, have a good week, they will be fine whene you get home!

Of course this depends on the plants not being in tiny, undersized pots.
