    Watering when gone

    Would like to know how do you water plants if you have to go out town when planted in soil?

    Hello Angeljo and welcome! Besides having someone do it for you, the only thing I can think you can do is build an automated watering system. Luckily, this website even has an article on that...and a very good one I might add: http://www.growweedeasy.com/node/496

    Best of luck with everything!

      What I do is fill a 55gal water barrel with water/nutes run a pond wanter pump hooked up2 a timer so it turns on for 4mins on time every 4days. I run a garden hose from the pump into the pots with micro misters.

            My soil grows went as much as 6-8 days without water when they are in mid to late veg. You may be able to get away with doing nothing. But, that depends on a bunch of factors. Soil in large pots can probably go the longest without water. Coco in smaller pots probably can't go much more than 3 days or less without water. Lighting, temp, humidity and other factors all make a difference. Google this issue too. I've seem cheap hacks using 2 litre soda bottles and gravity. I just don't remember the details.
