Here is just some simple advice when you're gone.

Don't let her overwater.
If she starts feeding with nutrients, start slowly and use less than full strength and gradually increase.
Make sure the water going in is properly PH'd.

Im not gonna have her start the nutes i dont think ,id rather have some defficiencies than overferted plants that are just going to die off because i cant flush in time , my tapwater is really good and clean its ph is around 6.5 6.6 . If you know anything about hungary and its fresh water then i dont need to explain too much on why plain old tapwater is the way im goin :)
Oh by the way im planning on doing an outdoor experiment once winter has passed , will the ruderallis that grows here pollenate a lets say NL or an AK strain or are they too "dumb" to sex each other up? :D

The most important thing to tell her is this:

If she fucks up and they start looking yellow or sick, give them a LOT of plain water (PH'd if possible) one time and then don't fuck with them again *unless* the containers get completely dry and if that happens, do the same thing.

Why don't you take a look at my journal. In the beginning I posted updates almost daily. You can use the age of my seedlings as a gauge to try and estimate what size they will be.

absolutely it will be worth it. Use both. HPS above and CFL's on the sides. You'll be amazed.

wow that was a quick reply :D

does it generate alot more heat than the cfls? Would a 250 watt have alot more heat? im asking cause the price overall for 250 qould be 8 euros dearer :D so granted i mount the ballast outside ad just have the bulb and the hood in there would it generate too much heat?
