My conditions have been less than optimal..

I can't seem to keep a steady RH level in my martha. My ultrasonic comes on for 30 minutes every other hour. I can't find a timer that allows smaller intervals and less time. I've heard people that say they have their ultrasonic come on like every 15 minutes for 2 minutes. Where can I find a timer that will allow me to do this?

Here's some pics of my first casing to pin.



Can't really see it in the pic, but the top right corner of the casing layer looks a bit drier than the rest.





I'm using natural light because my martha is right next to a window.

Do you think I should get a light for them? They a little more than 10 hours a day of natural light.

My biggest worry is the RH. I can't seem to keep a steady RH level in my martha. My ultrasonic comes on for 30 minutes every other hour. I can't find a timer that allows smaller intervals and less time. I've heard people that say they have their ultrasonic come on like every 15 minutes for 2 minutes. Where can I find a timer that will allow me to do this?

Wow they're looking pretty dry! For now I'd mist them down real good. You may want to hookup a coolmist also in conjunction with your ultrasonic but leave that running much more often, I recommend running coolmists on low not high as that often introduces too much fresh air and lowers RH too much, The combination coolmist/ultrasonic will definitely give you a little more fine tuning adjustments and great FAE's. As far as timers they're out there and many are very inexpensive, what you want may be a 96 increment timer or a simple programmable one.

Yeah I have a coolmist and a fish tank air pump hooked up. Both run 24/7 and are distributed evenly via 3 air tubes.







I guess that would make sense that there could be too much fresh air coming in that its causing lower RH. Guess I'm out to look for another timer !
