I will be traveling and out of town for two weeks, looking for suggestions to keep plants alive while out of town. Not sure I will have anyone available to come water them. I’ve heard of the bathtub technique but of my bathroom doesn’t have a window so there is not enough light. Any ideas are much appreciated.

You could water heavy the morning you're to leave. And/Or set up wicking stations with reservoirs for the ones that need frequent watering. Or water reservoir pots for them
