EI dosing and vacation time

How do you deal with EI dosing when you have to be away for a couple of weeks? Do you overdose before you leave? If so, by how much? My tank is 47 gal and heavily planted (and no fish).

Will Excel kill the fungus? I have no fish or plants in the tank right now, so I can overdose Excel, if it would help.
