I just configured and started running the fog generator in my greenhouse. 10 nozzles, 0.006 mm diameter pin holes with 1000 psi behind them generates a respectable fog, such as one might encounter in London’s Mayfair. When I enter the greenhouse, moisture accumulates on my glasses and I can no long see through my glasses, I must wander about inside with impaired vision, but a keen mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here’s a make-shift trial of the unit — I need to evaluate the effect of 10 fog heads in a 14×22 greenhouse and work out the automatic venting… and finally, get my self contained-solar powered digital humidistat and thermometer built along with the LoRa radio reception unit where their data will be transmitted to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Updated 8\/25\/25\/ 3:40 PM) I control the power to the unit using a Zigbee ThirdReality plug<\/a>. To learn about remote control mains power, see the 7 minute video of Jeff Geerling The smart outlet I use for power monitoring and remote control<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
