Need to leave my hydro grow for 1-4 days

My girlfriend is very pregnant right now and could go into labor at any second. Right now I have a single female plant that just started budding and is about 18" tall inside a plywood cabinet I built. I have a 400 watt HPS hanging over it on a chain so I can adjust it up to give the plant about 4 feet of room from the base of the rubbermaid container (diy setup). The light is on a 12/12 cycle and tonight I am going to replace the grow nutes I have in the system with a bloom mixture.

Really all my shit is automated, the light is on a timer and about the only thing I do day to day is open it up to see just how much my baby has grown. I had 3 other smaller plants I had started from bag seeds but yanked them because I didn't want the risk of me having to leave and them turning out to be males and pollinating my big girl while I was out.

Literally no one knows about my grow but I really don't think I am going to have to get anyone to do anything for me. The only thing I might do when my girlfriend says it is time to go is raise the light to the max height since I am more concerned about coming home to a burned up plant than sacrificing a few inches of growth.

Anything I am missing?

Yep.......fresh res change right before you leave and you should be good...whenever I have to go for a couple days I like to keep an eye on them with a webcam and some software....that way i can check up on them no matter where im at.....
