Hello all,
I have a very nice looking 2 week seedling but I am leaving in 10 days for 4 weeks holidays...
I live in Athens and grow currently in my big balcony in a 4 lt pot (22cm in diameter and 22 cm in height) which should hopefully be ok until I come back.
The big problem is watering...
I could take it with me on holiday but it is a bit risky.
I am thinking to install an auto watering system with one drip head 5 cm from the center dripping a small amount of water say x lt and 4 drip heads 10 cm away from the centre all around the edge of the pot dripping 5 times as much water (5x lt).
I must say I am not experienced canna grower , I have done it only once two years ago but I was home all the time.
Do you think it will work ?
Do you have any suggestions to make ?
Thanks in advance.
