One way to combat the plants drying out is to get trays or dishes for the plants to sit in so you can fill it with water, which also encourages root development to grow deeper and give you stronger plants. I absolutely love the bootstrap farmer trays because, while expensive, they lasts years!!!
I live in Az and one way we save water is we have hydroponics. We have trays of water for the bottoms of the plants to sit in, a small fish tank water pump with an adjustable pressure, we run the hose from the pump with misters above the plants. This way the water is recycled with some water loss but not much even with natural evaporation. Also with the sitting and circulation of water when it’s hot it will create humidity in your greenhouse.
just found this video. bought the same system and the aquaphor was perfect. I was cussin and whining for 10 min trying to work with this line. I bought some extra line from home depot and it was much easier to work with but all in all got it done. Thanks a heap for the advice. Now imma go pout about my thumbs hurting so bad.
I have the same mister...use a cigarette lighter to slightly heat/soften the tubing then slide on the T...the only way I found that works just like irrigation tubing for lawn
I appreciate you filming your learning experience. I was coming up with solutions as you were. Its fun "colabarating" with UA-camrs. Thank you, This is a very helpful vidow. I have complete confidence putting in my watering system now.
I don't have a raised bed garden that's shaped similar to a greenhouse. I just hooked up a 50ft mister system up and didn't use Stapler like you as it xan cause mistakes like making holes in the pipes or pinching the lines. Since mine is surrounded by a chicken fence and a barn/chicken coop wall I stapled zipties to the wall and just ziptied the line so it hangs over or near the plants and then installed the nozzles where I wanted them. Was fairly fast and simple and didn't have to rethink anything. I have a automated irrigation timer so I don't have to get up early to turn it on or worry about forgetting to turn it off. Not sure how long to set it which is what brought me to UA-cam and your video. Good video, just wished you had one about the timmer assuming you bought one eventually. I have mine set for 10 minutes once a hr. It's probably way too long and too much time between. With the Temps close to 100°F I'm thinking about changing it to turn on for 1 minute every 20 minutes. My main purpose for it wasn't to water the garden though it's a nice bonus, I was mostly just trying to get the Temps down so my tomatoes would stop burning up in the sun while the base and roots be looking perfect. Now i have to get a smaller system for my wife's flowers so don't have to water them over night.
Suggestion: If you or someone you know is tech savvy and can program an Arduino, this can be automated. Have the arduino poll temperature and humidity. When your set limit(s) are met, the arduino can trigger a relay to start/stop the mist.
Yeah, i was about to say - look out for the fish stench! I use it once a month in our indoor grow cart in my hubby's office and he's always ready to kill me! Esp cause it's over a heat vent and gets all warm and odiferous ;)
24:00 I recently bought a home automatic water pump. It's pretty powerful. It comes with small nozzle which drips water. But I want misting water, which my hand pump garden water spray does. So I connected that home spray water bottles nozzle with my water pump and it showering with nice spray of water. This DEMISTER HEAD is an excellent idea.
We just used the normal water pressure from the hydrant. I will say that our well hydrant did not have enough pressure but the one that’s on city water did.
Have you had a problem with the most causing mold? I was told misting plants in a greenhouse caused mold. That you need the habe a container below the plants to water the plants from below. 🤷🏻♀️
Loved your video. What size is your green house? I’m getting my first greenhouse in a couple weeks, can’t wait. Looking forward to more of your videos. 😊
I apologize for some reason it wouldn’t let me post it. Here are the nozzles: Three-Way Atomizing Nozzle, Adjustable Garden Irrigation Nozzle, Garden/Roof Cooling Nozzle, Greenhouse Vegetable Irrigation(50 Sets) a.co/d/2oI3Mtc And if you scroll down to the “frequently bought together” area it also has the hose adapter and tubing
@@GatheredTogetherHomestead Thank you for the reply. Have a similar green house and think we must live close. Stealths fly over our place almost daily. Lol

You may want to create a storyboard to outline what you want to present. To think any viewer wants to spend 28 minutes on a 5 minute presentation is asking way too much. The greenhouse design makes it almost impossible to control heat or humidity. Bye bye.

I really like your set up with those misters and all!! Great job guys
Nice! I will have to try this. Thanks for sharing!

I use a lighter as well...makes it painless! Any hest source should work.

It looks great and seems to work great. The brackets instead of the staples will probably keep you from future headaches down the road.
Yes it will Chuck
Great video thanks for sharing
Good work and thanks for the video - I suggest growing some Triple Palm Tree Delight to take the edge off a bit
i like those sprayers nice job happy growing
Dip tubing in hot water it softens it enough to slip tubing over mister. 😉

I built a misting system with help from my irrigation company. A fabulous investment. Also a timer helps.
Also, beautiful greenhouse.
Thank you we greatly enjoy the greenhouse as well, I hope your system works well for you also!
Excellent job
I just realized the kit I received was someone’s return item. It was half put together and only 30’ of hose. Love your greenhouse setup though.
👍👊 Looks like a winner. Maybe think about a timer to set at different intervals so you don't have to do it all the time. ENJOY
Great idea!
Glenn, one of these days your gonna figure out that Jessica my not always be right, but shes never wrong. 😂 😂
Ain’t that the Truth Jesse
hi! love the video. do you have the link for the irrigation system from amazon. thanks!
I'm really impressed with how well the misters worked..The location's turned out to be very effective. Thank you Lord.
Great Job🥰😁👍
Thank you 😊

Hi! Did you use water pump booster in this system or just a normal water pressure from your faucet?
We just used the normal water pressure from the hydrant. I will say that our well hydrant did not have enough pressure but the one that’s on city water did.
anyone else trying to fit a system like this. dip the ends of the hose in hot water and they just slide on.
🙏
where’s the amazon link please??

We have not had any issues with mold. If you look at a lot of commercial greenhouses they have above waters also.
May i know what kinda of pump did you use or is it directly from tap
It hooked directly up to the tap
Loved your video. What size is your green house?
I’m getting my first greenhouse in a couple weeks, can’t wait. Looking forward to more of your videos. 😊
Our greenhouse is 10’x14’ and we love it!!
i cant find the amazon link

Your seedlings dry up inside the greenhouse is because it gets hot inside there.
How do you like it now that you’ve had it for a while
It was great the whole time we used it this year! Saved a ton of time watering, can’t wait to get things started again next season!
