The Modern Greenhouse Mister has Come a Long Way

Years ago watering greenhouse plants was a cumbersome process and often meant either hand watering or an awkward overhead system.  These solutions had their problems.  For one thing, timing is critical when hydrating plants, and mistakes can kill them.  The amount of water was hard to control, and over-or-under watering could also harm fruits, vegetables, or flowers.  Today’s growers normally have the benefit of a modern greenhouse mister.  This system gently replenishes plants with the perfect amount of water.  Misters are set so the timing is perfect.  Often they deliver bactericide or fungicide as well.   These systems are convenient to own and operate and guarantee that plants can grow in optimal conditions.
