Hey guys. Week 8 of flower for a GG#4 auto. It only started to swell calyx and retract pistils about three/four days ago. I need to leave for work in five days time, for 11 days. Judging by these pics, do you think I should pull them in 5 days before I leave, or get someone to look after them while I'm gone? It looks to have around a week or two left, but I could be wrong.

Cheers. The trichs still glisten in the light so I figured it could do another two weeks. Im just so paranoid someone will fuck with my plant if I let them look after it that I was considering pulling it tight when it's ripening. Probably the most crucial stage.

I have autopots, but they are bottom fed and I've head plants don't like to sit in their runoff, especially in potting mix. I could see it working if I was in perlite/vermiculite only.

Actually that's a good point...10 or 11 days isn't that long, and it has basically stopped feeding the last few days. I have a 5L tank with a drip line somewhere. That 5l of water would do a few days considering its not drinking much anymore. I'll just give it one last feeding the day before I leave and then set the drip up when I leave it should be fine.

I have a habit of stressing over nothing lol.
