Typhoons, or Just Little Tropical Storms? Choosing Your Green House Misting System
There are two basic types from which to choose your green house misting system. There are the manual and the automatic systems. These systems each have certain things to recommend them to the green house grower, and it would be good to know as much as you can about the two before buying one or the other. The manual green house misting system is the basic system. The automatic system has been developed from it, so we can start with the basic system and work our way into the more complicated system.
The manual green house misting system starts with simplicity itself. It is just piped into the water source, and turned off and on as needed. This is one of the main benefits, as with any simple system, there is much less to go wrong. It also puts the gardener in closer control of the system if the watering needs adjusting. You can choose just how long the system is on and often even control the flow rates. Its simplicity also makes the manual greenhouse misting system the usual choice for a limited budget, because it is initially cheaper, but the automatic pieces can be added later as the budget allows.
An automatic green house misting system, is more complicated, but does take a lot of the trouble off the green house gardener. These systems can be set on timers, or a system that actually checks the water levels in the planters themselves and trigger the system based on it. It 's obvious how much time and effort this could save the gardener. Yet, these added levels of complication can affect the reliability of the entire system, not to mention the cost. It can also be more complicated to adjust the system to special situations.
These are not the only things to consider when buying your green house misting system. Other factors such as capacity, flow rate and efficiency weigh in heavily for many gardeners, so be careful to look closely at the systems you are considering to be sure it's a good match.
