Prepping your (hydro) grow for prolonged absence

[curlybud]

I'm going to be leaving for about a week pretty soon. Vacation rocks but I feel somewhat uneasy leaving my plant all by herself!

I was just wondering what people do when they know they will be away from their grow for an extended period of time, what extra precautions they take, etc, before leaving.

I just have one plant in a bubbler. Been veging for about 20 days, so I guess the main thing is to make sure she's got a full res of nutes and that the light is high enough that she won't grow into it while I'm away. I can leave the closet door open to make sure it doesn't get too warm since it'll be pretty much dark while I'm gone.

Anything else you guys can think of?

Cheers

first - have a great time on vacation

what i have always done was - add additional water to the reservoir (it will evaporate), and make sure the lights are off the plants good - or the plants are tied down if doing a lst.

i would hate the idea of leaving the door open, my stuff is under lock and key, but if you do not have closed loop ventilation then i guess you have no choice.

it is fun to leave the gals for a week, and come back and see the progress.

good luck, bog
