Mister
I live in the Los Angeles area and the RH is very low here, I Have found that 2 minutes every 1/2 hour starting at 11pm and ending at 4pm works great.
Outside I use the misters to wet the orchids and other epiphyte type of plants, in the greenhouse I use them as under table misters to add humidity. both the greenhouse and outside areas are on the same controller.
I find that outside, using them on the half hour for 2 minutes has really helped the roots to grow on all my mounted orchids.
What I had to do was install a filter system so that the heads would not get calcium and other minerals stuck in them, I found that I was having to replace or clean the heads a couple of times during the spring and summer .
