how to make fine mist?
    #18762389 - 08/27/13 02:35 AM (10 years, 5 months ago)

The mister i have seems to make the cakes blue no matter how I try to do it.  What mister provides a super fine mist that won't cause this?

Blueing happens often because the substrate drys out. Maybe you are letting it dry out to much between fanning or not maintaining a good amount of humidity. Any simple spray bottle should work doesn't have to be fancy.

Also try spraying at an upward angle and letting the mist fall down on them if you aren't already.

Get one of those mini-hairspray bottles.

At petco they have lizard sprayers that compress air and force the water through a metal nozzel creating a fine mist and they are only 7 bucks lol

Don't aim the mister at the cakes.

If you are worried about how fine the mist is, don't be. I can tell you from experience just about any $1 spray bottle from any store will work fine.

I do have a walmart spray bottle for about $1 and everytime I mist, directly or indirectly, I get bluing immediately after.  I know it's from the misting, If I mist half the cake, half gets blue.  Even indirect misting is doing this, I cannot be any gentler unless I get another bottle.  A hairspray one sounds good.

I didn't even use a mister for the first weeks of my growing, I just washed my hands with soap and then with alcohol, then simply dipped my fingers into a bowl of water and flicked repeatedly on the cakes and walls etc. Worked fine :laugh:

Um, hairspray is an aerosol.

Just get a different spray bottle. I get mine at hardware stores.

There is hairspray that comes in those plastic bottles with the finger pump sprayers.

Those I could see giving a really nice and fine mist.....

Good lord.

I really hoped that wasn't where this was going.

Should I wear lipstick while I gently "spritz" my cakes until they glisten with a soft dew? :facepalm: :rofldrunk:

Seriously though OP...just get a different $1 spray bottle from a different store.

You can fill them up and try them at the water fountain. If that is weird to you, just ask an employee. I've done it many times.

No, you are supposed to spray in to the air and then waft the cakes through the mist, like ladies walking through perfume.
