But it is very neat because it is the only battery driven on which can do intermittent misting. How do you set your timer, how often and how long? For general watering we have what is called 'hunter node controller' battery too, significantly easier to setup (not that I did it!)
I will be needing it to turn on every minute to two minutes for 10 to 15 seconds throughout the day. I’ll be experimenting with it to see what works best. I have two 6’ x 12’ propagation beds and will be adding at least one more this year. The two existing beds are plummbed together and my water pressure is plenty to run the needed misters for two to three beds.
One good thing is that my original controller will do all of my general watering. I was hoping buy a new controller to run my holding as well as my grow out beds but wasn’t planning on buying one yet. Of course now I have to buy more valves and set up a new rig, but I’m good with that if it makes my life easier and I have less watering to do.
