Help!

Any suggestions on how to make sure babies don't die during a 7 day vacation. very small soil grow, no auto-watering system--not worth purchasing extra watering equip.

I'm looking for a DIY/cheap method to make sure babies have enough water for 7 days...

Thanks!

transplant into a giant oversized pot, put plants under just a few cfls, lower the temps to like 65 should keep ya wet for 7 days will slow growth and water consumption and the extra unused soil will keep it all moist dump a lot of water through it b4 you leave

i normaly run a 1000hps, when i leave my girls i light the closet up with a couple of cfl's. i grow in 3 gallon pots and use soil. give them a good soaking right before you leave.
