How long can it go without water

how long can the plant go without water if it just started the vegetative state...im askin becuz im goin out of town for few days and i wont be able to water them...any suggestion need help with this

Just give them a proper watering and they'll do just fine. I had a similar situation this past summer and I was afraid for it, but when you come back you'll be happy with how big they are! pay more attention to the lights and heat.

give em a nice soaking prior to leaving, what stage of growth are you in? from veg until a few weeks into flower u can leave em for at least a few days after giving em a solid shower. i left my babies without water for 5 days when they first went into flower, no problems at all. had a friend stop by to make sure they wernt dry and everytihng was fine

i am in the veg state..i just put them in the pot few hours from the paper towel method.....how much water should i pour before i leave in a about qt size pot....another question; how far should i leave my light running 26w cfl's?

bumppp

i think they will be fine in that case, such small plants will hardly drink, and a couple of cfls wont dry out the soil quick either.

give them a good water before you leave and they will be ok.

I always use a plastic catch plate below my buckets as well as I use a soil additive (water-keep) and I water my veg stuff in 1 gallon pots every 9-10 days and my big gals in 5 gallon every 4 days. I never have any stress showing from lack of water!!! The best gauge is to look at the leaves for "droop" as this shows stress from lack of watering. I also never have a root rot problem!

when i water it, should i be focusing on pouring the water around the seed or should i water them evenly around the soil
