Going Away

[jameshughes1989]

Im going away tomorrow (for a week), my problem is that I have no-one to turn on lights while im not here and i have no timer.
Im worried my plants are going to die. Option is maybe to leave curtains open and give them natural light, will this help? or maybe give an algea problem?
Or just risk it and hope they recover when i get back?

Any help is appreciated

... go buy a timer?

A cheap one from asda will do the job, and I'm sure most open 24 hours! Other than that, yeah give them natural light. I wouldn't say it's going to hurt them too much in a week unless you have demanding plants.

TBH most people are more worried about the fish.

No they'll be fine. Don't worry.
