Will my plants die if the bubbler won't work for several hours?

I just got a notice that electricity will be down for several hours in my house.. while I won't be here

Will it be bad for my plants?

They aren't fully submerged yet, but the hydroton is touching the water

I use net pots + hydroton + rockwool cubes (where the sprouts are) + bubblers

It will also likely be very hot there for those hours

Damn, I hate power outages

If its only for a few hours they will be allright. I lost power during the hurricane for 18 hours and my plants survived. They were 4 weeks into flower with the roots completely submerged in water. They did look a little droopy but a few hours after the power came back on they straightened back up.

Yours were fully developed, mine are in their first sets of leaves, and 2 of them haven't even sprouted yet.. damn

Just manually pour hydro solution over the roots. Just do it for a few mins every couple of hours like someone would do with a drip system. That should help till your power comes back on.

if your using rockwool ya should be grand if that stays wet....

Nah, my whole thing is submerged

The roots aren't suspended, the pots are IN the water and bubles come up to them

You'll be fine.....Just light some candles so they won't be scared in the dark
