DIY Humidifer for around $50

I wanted to share a great way to raise your humidity without spending 400-500$ on a commercial grade humidifier. For about $50.
I tried using cheap humidifiers for my sealed room, but after working all day it only raised my rh by about 5%. (I was In the range of 25-30% rh and it was adversely affecting my plants)

What you'll need

A hose timer

And a mister

And a hose.

Just attach the timer to a water spout and connect the timer to your mister. And done! Very easy to set up . I have it spray for 90 minutes every 4 hours but that'll vary depending on the condition of your room. I have a 20x20 room I was vegging in and it raised my humidity from 30% to 70% in about 90 minutes bringing my vpd into the optimal range. Just make sure you have good air circulation to move the mist around.
