If the lady is within extenion cord distance, how about a 55 gallon drum of ph'd water, a digital timer, a small aquarium pump and tubing... (low gallon-per-hour output)

Could you use a solar pump ( fountain) and one of those battery operated lawn watering timers?

Before you go, build a raised berm that directs water flowing overland to your plant. If you are on a slope, your berm would look like a 'V' with the open end facing uphill and the plant set up about 2-3 feet from the bottom fo the v.
Then, take dead leaf material and mulch well around the base of the plant. This will conserve moisture.

What? No moving parts? :wtf:


Pragmatism- Is that all you have to offer?:thumbsup:

Nice invisibility cloak, by the way.

Thank you, I just got it back from the dry cleaner.
Sorry to disappoint you, but there are often ways to fix a problem that don't involve buying shit. Unless you REALLY want to buy something, in which case this should be it... the one outdoor gardening tool I think every grow shop should stock:

Either way you look at it, you have to go to Home Depot...
1) ...to buy all the fancy stuff.
-or-
2) ...to hire someone to operate your spade.
(manual labor sucks) :jointsmile:

Go by a rain barrel and fill it right to the top and drill a small hole in the bottom. Of course put it where you want it first. The slow leak over the root system will keep it nice and moist. If you really wanted you could use cheap tarps or plastic and make a rain catcher on top of the barrel so that it replenishes itself.

No heavy manual labor
No Power,
and no moving parts to break except the rain catcher but if it does there is still the water in the barrel

I'm going on vaction too, but I have a very cool mother in law.
