Mist system advice? Male
Default

I agree not to use hard water in a misting system. I collect rain.

I have a Mist King system that included a bung to put into the bottom of a plastic trash barrel.

I set up so I could put the mounts in the shower/bathtub when I went on vacation. I collect a lot of rain for my orchids. I took a 32 gallon plastic trash barrel with lid and drilled a hole. I drilled a hole in the barrel with a Dreml tool and a conical grinding bit. I installed the bung, and connected the MistKing pump to the barrel. I set the barrel in my bathroom and carried buckets of rain to fill it. It lasts more than 2 weeks in my conditions.

It was not hard to do.
