Sorry for your loss Brother! Keep your head up and you will be successful.

I hear you on switching back to soil. I like to split to Vegas for a week every Summer and it's nice to come back to a living garden. They need water of course but they dont ever die. :goodluck:
 
Wow, I wish I could leave my soil garden for a week.. That would be heaven... Three days max is all I can get away with, and they are pissed off on the third day... Sorry for the loss, and GL on the replacements

Before I leave for vacation I give them a heavy watering and leave the trays full. This will hold my garden over until I get back. I am only working with a 430 watt hps but the temps in our grow rooms are similar. My plants are only about two foot tall little bushes in 5 gallon pots (3.4g Air Pots this year) that I only have to water about every 4-5 days.

I'm thinking about plugging in some wicks in the air pots this year to work as vacation feeders because those pots do dry out in a day or two.:Rasta:
