Subject: ? Automatic watering solution while on vacation

Hi,

I live in the Northeastern U.S. and have two beautiful, healthy avocado plants that are about 6 months old and about 4 and a half feet tall. I grew them in water on toothpicks and potted them in soil/sand mixture after maybe 4 or 5 months. I'm going away for about 5 days and need to figure a way for them to get watered while I'm away. I usually water them every 2 or 3 days depending on how dry the soil gets. Is there any type of automatic watering apparatus that I can build or buy to take care of the plants while I'm away?

Thanks in advance,

Tom

Hi Tom,

Im from Perth, Western Australia, its probably too late for you now but i recently came in contact with an inventor who has developed a self watering device and sells them for as little as $6! Ive got one and it works great
