tweaking misting...sphagnum in pots retarding the water

[beaniebeagle]

got the new Mistking system, happy with it.

I am trying to tweak it for an extended vacation coming up. Has anyone noticed that even with it on for a few minutes, the orchids in pots that have a fair amount of sphagnum on top seem to not to get enough water down under the sphagnum??

since the vacation is extended, if I go past 3min and 30 seconds each day of spraying, I would run out of water. So I am considering removing most of the shagnum.

Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this

Just curious. . . .

I had a post not long ago where every time I wrote the word m i s t i n g (extra spaces between letters are intentional), it was converted to M i s t k i n g as a link to a pop-up add for that brand.

Did that also happen with your post, or were you posting about that brand?

Sorry, don't mean to hijack your thread, but I was wondering. I hope your question gets answered.

That's because the owner of MistKing is also the owner of this board. Either misting or mistking results in that link.

Thanks Jayfar, I did not know that.

As the owner of the board, they can do what they want/need to do. I was just not aware of the relationship or why it was happening.
