I was gone 5 days last time, I early watered up to 3 days (unless it was a cactus or similar), then the ones i knew wouldn't go well without humidity, i bagged up into jail #### Tulip Girl antwoordde op 2025-02-15 8 days, I have a lot of plants so bagging not a good option but maybe I could just do the ones that need the most misting #### Wolfen 🐺 antwoordde op 2025-02-16 Yea i have over 300+ I only bagged the ones that I deemed necessary. Like ferns and such ### Sunny reageerde op 2025-02-15 Cover with clear plastic bags. Ensure the plastic does not touch the leaves with condensed moisture to avoid rot. Use an old covered fish tank or a terrarium. There are drip watering kits that connect to a timer. The timer connects to an outside faucet if you live in an area with plants outside. ### JimiWa reageerde op 2025-02-15 I object, you cannot go on vacation and leave your plants!! 🤪 I am just a beginner, but I have heard of bagging them as suggested. I thought maybe a humidifier set on a timer but that may run out of water. Maybe set the free outdoors and let Mother Nature care for them. Would love to hear what you choose and how it worked!! --- _De Planta-community (https://getplanta.com). Iedereen kan meelezen.
