She survived a week of no water while we were away camping. She was definitely thirsty though. She tripled in height in two weeks. If she gets much taller, I might have to top her. I really want this plant to be a "hands-off" grow and just let nature take it's course so I will have to put some thought into what to do about it. I have already tampered with it by removing some massive fan leaves before we left as I was afraid the wind would break her. I should have left it alone because there was no rain or wind while we were away. Great for camping, not so great for an outdoor grow.
