Hi all,

I am looking into getting an automated misting system for my hanging mounted orchids. I have 20 plants (+/-) hanging from a bamboo stick that is 9 feet long. We are going to be away for a week again and misting them every day is too much to ask from the friend who will be feeding our cat...So, misting system seems like an reasonable alternative, but they do seem expensive to me... How big should the pump be? and how many misting nozzles (1 per plant or 1 per few plants)? Anything alse I should be looking for? Can I build one for less? I am waiting for your words of advice.

TIA
