Humidity in a bag

i have no idea how practical this would be but...
I was thinking that you could stuff a nylon sack made, from a womans large nylon, full of perlite. then you could dunk it in water and let it drain and toss it in whatever chamber you wanted to keep humid... you could hang it on the side with any number of home made coat hanger devices.. you could easily re-moisten it...
is this an original idea or has it been thought before??

I think the perlite has to be in a large, flat layer. It's all about surface area.
It wouldn't work as well all balled up in a nylon... although that is a novel way to soak it.

well i was thinking of using the upper thigh area of a large pair and tie the ends so you could easily "flatten" it out on the bottom of the tub.. if done right you could use multiple sacks for a larger tub..

This does sound interesting... it's almost like a basic "hydration pack" type idea... keep us updated if you have success! (and never be afraid to suggest new methods! That's how we learn! ) Thank you!

i just had another idea.. If i had a 6 inch pvc tube and stuffed it with the bag and connected to a 6 inch hole in the sideof the FC, then mounted a PC fan at the other end of the pipe blowing in, i would have FAE and humidity all in one..

Yea, that would be like a wicking type humidifier that won't get you above 70%. It takes several inches of damp perlite spread over a large area(entire bottom of tub) to evaporate enough to give 99% humidity. That would make for an awfully big nylon stocking to have that much surface area, and would infringe on the area the fruits need to grow in. RR

you aren't getting the pic here RR i AM talking (in my original statement) about lining the bottom of a tun with a few inches of perlite.. i just want the perlite to be in nylon sacks for easy hydration, storage, and less mess.
