Holiday leaving plants 1 week help / advice!

[dougens]

Hello

I currently have my small bud box with 1 auto (looking good 4 weeks into flowering) and two feminised non auto's on 18-6 with 250W CFL 2700K which are nice compact and bushy but not yet showing flowers etc They are in soil.

I water them well every two days and feed the flowering with flower food - however, I'm going away for 1 week and need to keep them watered. I have no one who can do this for me every two days but have someone who could come round once while I'm away.

I have a conservatory on my house and live in the south of England. I have grown auto to good success in the conservatory and as it isn't as hot as the tent they need less watering generally.

My question is this:

If I take the plants out of the tent, water well and leave in the conservatory for three days before my friend comes and waters mid week how will this affect the plants?

The auto / non auto is an experiment anyway as I usually just grow autos in the tent but this time started them off on blue cfl 125W 6500K 20/4 cycle for vege, when the auto started budding (and the non auto's looked nice and bushy / compact) I changed the light to 2700K and to 18/6. How will taking them out of this cycle and putting them in natural daylight from 0600am - 2100pm affect the plants?

I just want to make sure I don't confuse them too much with the light cycle / spectrum change (?) and also whether the 18/6 light cycle (red 2700K) will flower the non autos?

Thanks for any help advice on this

I could type a long detailed response but it's really not necessary. The short answer is that yer plants will be fine mate. A week won't hurt them.

Just drench them an hour before you leave. No need to take them out of the tent. Leave em in the tent.

11$ drip kit from HD will baby sit, if you have the other parts.

Thanks for your replies - I'll leave in the tent and water heavily before leaving and a friend will water after 3 days heavily again. Let's hope they're ok...!
Any info on how growers think my feminised non autos will do on 18-6 cycle? They are looking good but no flower stems after 2 weeks change cycle and bulb?

My idea is that once the auto is ready on 18-6 I will then change the cycle to 12-12 and they will bud up to harvest nicely....?

If this works it's my ideal scenario......!

Thanks for any replies / advice / info
