...but how much time do you spend worrying about you grow while on vacation? Can you do it without someone checking them for you?
I don't know how to worry. I tend to just expect the worse, blow up when it happens, fix it and expect karma to bite me at every end.
I already did a partial harvest. The res is full and will last at least 5 days before needing ph adjustments or a top off. 75 gallon capacity for 6 plants. I'm only feeding them water at this point, ppms 800 and dropping.
My fear is not related to hydro issues lol, its light issues that even soil growers would worry about. Im fallponics with airstones. So if my air pump kicks out I still have waterfalls from my pump, and vice versa. They will be just fine without a pump.
Thing is I'm impatient and if I didn't leave I would be harvesting some buds that really need to be in there longer lol.. I've seen what they can become, the frosting that is. I usually harvest at 70% red hairs. Since these will be in longer than that.. I'll actually see if it's worth it to let them cook longer.
I think the comedy show were going to should help with those worries anyways.
I actually have a flower room and veg room both decent hydro systems.. And shit drying... As Ive said.. I make hydro look easy. Here's a vid from 2 days ago. These close ups of the buds do no justice.
