Sue's Greenhouse Misters

From: Don Burns <burns at mobot.org> on 1998.06.09 at 16:26:34(2249) Sue, While I recognize the need to maintain relatively high humidity, even in winter, I would question the need to mist in the winter. It seems to me that in a small heated greenhouse, a couple of buckets of water on the floor below the benches would provide adequate humidity. Have you considered this? But even with misting (and I emphasize true misting) if the greenhouse is heated, by the time the moisture settled on the plants it would have warmed to the temperature of the air. I suggest trying the evaporative method if you plan to heat the house. Don +More Don Burns Plantation, FL USA Zone 10b
