I might need to move my hydro plant that is in a bubbler bucket. I would have to disconnect the air pump for about 48 hours. She is in week 3 of flowering. What can I expect to happen if I do this. Could she hermi?

Yes the plant gets nutrients from the air pump the air brings up the nutrients.
You can always get a pack of these and u would be ok.

use one every 9 hours
Yes. Just buy the Battery operated pumps and tape them to the side of each bucket. I have used them for my fishtanks before and they run a long time on 2 batteries. I just bought mine at Walmart I think..12.95 each...
the airpump just supplies oxygen to the water and roots. the nutrients will still be available to the plant.
i had no airpump on myplant for more than a month and it was a lil sick but still fine.
it should be ok for 48 hours but the less it has no pump the better.
I would agree with Misk. 48 hrs isnt going to make any difference.
Yes it would make a difference thats how the plant gets oxygen. The whole system of DWC is having a super-oxygenated water supply for the plant.
Just use some of those tablets you can get at petco or fish shop. :)
Loser90 the plant can still get oxygen through the leaves.
Buddahbear It needs nutrients delievered to it and you put the nutes at the roots.
It will but it will die probably from no n-p-k and lack of oxygen.
your madd'am will be just fine young grasshopper, it will not die nor go deficient, your biggest concern should be on completely screwing up the light cycle, you will have a potential herm and an extended flower cycle
