Am I Misting Wrong? * 1
    #26917398 - 09/04/20 12:47 PM (3 years, 5 months ago)

So just a simple question. I've been through all of the proper surface moisture teks and I only gently mist about 1 foot sometimes even higher from the substrate. I spray the water directly up into the air and let it fall gently onto the surface.

However, it seems throughout all of the shoeboxes I have evert done in my life, everytime I mist, (I use bottled spring water) by the time the water evaporates I start to get discoloration in the substrate. It starts out beautifully white, then slowly starts turning yellow (forming metabolites) and bruising after misting. What the fuck am I doing wrong? I really don't mist heavily, I don't see why I'm having this problem...

Sounds like it might be too much dry air coming in.

Any preventative measures for this? I have a grocery bag with small holes here and there over the shoebox.
