HELLP!!! how to make SGFC as self-maintaining as possible!

HEEELLLLP!
So I completed my first grow using Pf-tek BRF cakes, pretty much exactly per the standard method. First flush wasn't amazing, and now I have dunked and am ready to place the cakes into the SGFC for the second flush. Problem is, I will be away in 5 days time, for a total of 4 days 
I know it is unlikely I will get a successful flush leaving it for so long, but as everything is ready to go, and the cakes aren't too spent from the first flush, I may as well try to make as many modifications to the chamber as possible (add a bubble wand? fan? etc) and put them in there and see what happens.
I've looked at various set ups on here, but I don't have the time to construct anything elaborate as the cakes are ready to go (they are currently being dunked). I can however go out and buy reasonable pieces of equipment and do some light alterations to the chamber.
What last ditch efforts can you recommend that may help to maintain the chamber while I am away? ANY help or advice (or criticism... "what?.. you wanna leave them for five dayss?!?!? forget it, shove em in the bin"!!!) will be gratefully received.
Many advance thanks

The chamber in itself is a marvelous creation. I've seen cakes go unattended for several days and all that happened was a smaller flush with more spores in the SGFC. IMO don't worry.

You don't need to do anything. The cakes will miss their regular misting schedule so fruits will probably be a bit smaller. Everything else will take care of itself. RR
