misting and humidity
    #19111498 - 11/09/13 06:28 PM (10 years, 2 months ago)

OK so this is my first grow and my caked havnt fully colonized yet but this question has been nagging me.

I have 8 brf and verm cakes and i have a shotgun chamber set up to use perlite. Will i need to mist at all? if i do, does the water need to be super clean or does it not matter?

Yes, you need to mist the cakes to replace the lost moisture in them, and you need to fan out the chamber after each misting.

Mist the cakes with a fine mist until they glisten, then fan out the chamber.

Mist again once the water you previously applied has evaporated.

Repeat all the way thru fruiting.

Depends on how long it takes the water to evaporate.

I misted my cakes about twice a day. But like the previous message it depends on your circumstance and how long your cakes take for the water to evaporate off. Also fully colonized cakes are fairly cont am resistant, therefore personally I use just tap water to mist.
