    Default Answered: The problem of holiday

    Hi folks hope your all well,

    So my wife has booked us a trip to Poland to see her family for 2 weeks.

    So I need some advice please on what best to do with my grow. I have 3 mature (photoperiod) all 2 weeks into flower and 3 (autos) just a week old.
    My current watering schedule:
    2x Blueberry 20litre pots= 2litres per 2 days
    1x C99xBlueberry 11 litre pot= 1 litre per 2 days

    the 3 autos get little not worth measuring at moment.

    I have an idea of a drip feeding system with a 50litre res but what would i use to control flow? Is there a system out there or will i have to make it?

    Thanks for your help folks

    I would recommend blumats, there probably just as cheap and no electric needed as there gravity fed and only release water as soil dries out, and you can link loads of drippers etc.
    It's a great pace of kit mate

    The blumats look interesting. I'm shitting it leaving them for so long. I've got a internet camera we used for my daughter when she was a bubby so I'll hook it into the tent so I can see them lol. It doesn't help watering them though lol

    I'll be honest happyjack I would deffo rather stay at home but she feeds me so I gotta go!

    not really much help now but have been wondering if those internet-home switch centre things would be useful for remote control of pumps etc.

    trouble is i struggle with all this modern lectric shit,took me ages to get my remote cctv to work,and like you say all you can do is see it all going to fuck,which is often worse than not knowing

    coco or soil mate, if soil then you have a small chance of saving this without a person coming in and helping. With soil i would make a batch of feed for them in the butt and then have a segmental timer with 5 min seg's running a line to sprinklers on the pots to run for a short burst each day to stop em dying. or i would use a less powerful light like a 400 or summat to keep them from getting big and drinking lots resulting in death. If coco then ur fucked basically unless you can get a 200 ltr butt and air stone to keep it fresh and have that timer running 3 times a day for 5 mins. But if you get a clogg its a case of rush n roulette im afraid as th whethr they be alive still, failing that maybe a friensd could help, but it would have to be a good friend mate, and goes agianst all the rules of growing. but hey u didnt know this was coming did you. could you not buy her a fancy dress and take her out and break the news that ya cant go he he . yeah i know mater, its not worth russling the womans feathers, i have suffered big for this myself. But she loves the smoke when its here. lol. all the best mate hope it works out.
