Default Going on a Trip HELP
Ok, in about 15 days im going on a trip for 10 days.

In the meantime I have to find a way to keep my plant
in good health.

I have it in a tupper wear container, laced with tin foil,
Its on for 16/8 if i leave it closed it will be too hot.

shes only 6 days old as of today counting the germination

But I am doing it secretly in my closet, because of family.

So my question is:
"How can I take care of my plant while im out of town without having
to worry about fire, plant drying out, or family finding it?"

HELP PLEASE!

the thing that makes it harder is that i have an animal that will
be tending to when im gone... eh!

heres a visual

10 days is a long time to leave it inside alone. So much can go wrong. Any chance of putting it outdoors? If no, you could try a drip method to water. Suspend a gallon bucket full of water above the plant. Make a very small hole to allow one drip every minute or so. You have 15 days to experiment with how long a gallon of water would last you with various sized drop holes. As far as the lights, make sure they are secured properly and can't fall on your plants. Try and distribute the load on several circuits (i.e., don't plug 20 lights on one circuit) to prevent overloading or shorting one circuit. Ideally you want your lights 2" away if you are doing a CFL grow but in 10 days, your plants could grow a lot more than 2". I would place the lights 4"-6" from the top of the plants. Of course, you'll have stretching and thin stems but they'll still be alive. You also need a timer to set your 18/6 cycle. Good luck.

thanks guys. but i forgot to mention that There is an animal to be tended to so there will be someone constantly going in and out of the room. Ah! the bucket thing sounds good, but that means I'd have to take it out of the little grow box, but then light will emit through the edges of my closet.

And I do have a timer, just have been using it for other plants... MINTS haha,
but I wouldnt mind switching that over.

And I cant put it outside unfortunatly.

Stav, seriously, after looking at your plant and how young it is, I'd just chalk this one plant up as a loss and start over when you get back. It isn't worth the risk of being discovered by the pet caretaker. You don't even know if the plant is a female yet, so you might go through all this elaborate setup only to find out it's a male. I'd just give it to a close friend for keeping if there's anyone you trust enough or just get kill it. You are only talking about 6 days wasted so far, not a big deal.
