Is there such a thing as a "simple" hose end misting system????

[Keysguy]

I'm still planning my shade house re-design which will hopefully get underway in November and one of the things I want to add is a simple misting system around the sides for daily mising of small mounted plants.

I have a top end electronic, solenoid based system with a day/night timer that runs 15 misting nozzles over my vanda collection twice a day in my shade house. (it's from Charley's Greenhouses if you are familiar with those.) The only issue I've had with it (other than having to replace it after Irma) is the clear plastic filter cover started leaking and I bet I replaced 3 or 4 of them before I switched to a solid black one which is apparently, much less susceptible to UV degradation because the first one I used is still there after 2 years. I just don't want to spend that kind of money for a simple once a day on/off system.

I've been researching this for awhile and I really don't see what I want but maybe that's because it wouldn't work.

What I'd like to do to start is run maybe 3 mister heads that only have to project mist down about 3 feet, be expandable and work off of a hose end through one of those battery operated Orbit timers that runs for say 10 minutes once a day. I have a 3 piece overhead PVC sprinkler system in the shade house that works perfectly set up like that.

Do you think I could do it that way (PVC with misters in lieu of sprinkler heads) for my mounts? Will it have enough pressure?
