Default Re: GOING AWAY FOR 2 WEEKS WHAT TO DO!!!!!!

What I do when I go on a long trip is to move them away from my apartment window and place them on trays of water about 2 inches high. for your case you will need to move them in the house from your balcony.

They will be fine when you get back. If you are leaving for 2 weeks, I think you should have about 3 inches of water for your big pots.

Just give them bright light (ie. no direct sun) and soak the pots in water. They will be fine too when you close all windows and doors for the holidays. In fact it helps as humidity is higher for them.
