Hello! I am leaving for vacation for 3.5 weeks. What do you recommend me to do to my monstera and my fiddle leaf fig plant to keep them alive?

When I travel for more than one week, I bribe a friend/family member to come over to water. In my opinion, that amount of time is too long for both a monstera and a FLF to go without water. I wrote sticky notes with instructions next to each plant. 😊🌿

Have you ever tried the cotton string \& a bucket of water? Or there are watering spikes that do the same. I’m not sure how complicated it is to set up but worth looking into. Summer Rayne Oaks has a video on the spikes in her history. I’ve been dreaming of setting this up because I’m terrible at consistent watering.
