Hello,
I'm growing in my pc. I am leaving for a week. I probobly have a little under a gallon size pot. Is there a way I can keep it watered for that week?

It usually needs watering every 4-5 days....and i know it wont last a week though...any ideas or inventions I can use to keep her watered?

Thanks Guys...Really looking forward to hear your ideas.....

Put a small pan underneath each container and water right before you leave, make sure after you water there is a good amount collected in the pan. Leave the water in the pan when you are gone, and the plant will wick up the water according to how much it needs. That should stretch it for a few days more until you get back to water again.

the water worm is just a wick. You can make your own.
