I'm setting up my timer to run my mister & would like to have some suggestions as to when I should start & how long it should run on each cycle. I've got a 6x8 Harborfreight GH with Aluminet shadecloth inside and a automatic vent opener. Right now, I'm running 6 solar fans (2 vents & 4 for air movement inside. Electricity won't be run to the Gh until my dad has some time (luckily he's an electrician). The plants in there right now are orchids, tomatoes, brugs, an orange, a lemon, a mango, an avocado, some rose cuttings and some perennials that are soon to be planted. All of the big stuff will be moved out once our night time temps get a little warmer. Anyway, my water timer has 4 cycles I can program. I've seen some folks that suggest beginning the misting cycle in the night (around 5 am). Thanks!
