It’s a trap!
I have been thinking about a misting system for a 6'L x 4'H x 2'W Nepenthes chamber. I am thinking between a greenhouse type misting system or a ultra sonic mister. The greenhouse like system would not actually include an electric pump or the computer control (a timer and ac adapter would be used instead), but would be similar to the setup this fellow made for his Chameleon. Automatic Misting System.
The Ultra Sonic misters are cheaper, but feel that one would take up a bit too much room for the output it would produce. The sprayer could be as large as 3 gallons and be hidden away with the misting nozzles above the plants.
Has anyone tried to use a manual pump sprayer in this manner? If so, would it produce a fine enough mist? I guess all I want is for it to produce fine water droplets that don't just run off the plant leaves.
Thanks,
Nick
