Avoiding vacation disaster!

[Smokesteve]

Hi Guys I'm trying to avoid the vacation disaster that one of our members recently had. Is there a auto watering system that would cover me for about 10 days? It's a soil grow and I'm going to have them all in large pots would like 2 waterings while I'm gone. 9 plants total 3 flowering 6 in vegatative.

I use a $25 in-aquarium (i.e. submersible) circulation pump in a reservoir. It's hooked to a drip watering system manifold (that has six little faucets that you can adjust to control flow) and drip watering system tubing and runs once a day on a digital timer. Cheap and it works!

I have also seen a system in which you set the pots on a big deep tray of wet perlite and the water soaks up into the pots.It looked like it worked well. A google search would probably show you how to set it up.
