Outdoor No water for 2 weeks help!!

[ratasaez]

Hello everybody, I need some help with my plant, I am going on vacations for 2 weeks and probably this are the last two weeks before I harvest. Will my plant survive 2 weeks without water? I heard about some watering system with a bottle stuck in the soil is that ok? maybe is there any other method that is better?

I live in Chile and is going to be summer by the time I leave on vacations so its going to be like 25 degrees celcius max.

Thanks on advance, this is my first grow so I am a total newbie.

High!

I have used that but had only 2 plants:
Amazon.com: Claber 8053 Oasis 4-Programs/20 Plants Garden Automatic Drip Watering System: Patio, Lawn & Garden

Make sure to calculate well the debit, they recommend not to add nutes in it.... (my casde was fine was the end, like yours...)
or you can go with that (credit to GazTanker)

The pump was plugged into a $20 digital timer than could turn on/off in increments of 1 minute. The real task is adjusting the individual sprinkler heads and adjusting the minutes per day and days per week to run the pump - once completed it works great.





At first I tried running loops around the plants with perforated drip line but found it much more difficult to control the rate (and they tended to clog). The sprinklers however are easily adjustable and really just drip - 4xx gph pump isn't enough to spray water.

I think this is the key component you're looking for - hydrofarm dual outlet digital timer. Can have up to I think 12 settings, you can choose single days of the week, every other day..., increments of 1 minute on/off.

If you really soak your pots and cover the soil with some plastic with a few holes in it for breathing they should stay moist for quite a while. I stop watering the last week anyway so theres less moister in the buds when you chop.

The bottle works. You could transplant to a bigger container and when you do use polymer crystals. Presoak them and put a bunch with medium. That will keep em till you want them to dry before chop
