would be more concerned about the effect of this water when you’re watering and fertilizing your plants. If everything else is fine with your plants and you’re simply trying to increase the humidity in the growing area without getting deposits on the leaves, this can easily be solved by installing a misting line under the growing bench or at the top of the growing bench. The misting heads can be oriented in almost any direction and will still provide the needed humidity without actually getting water on the leaves. Inexpensive misting lines can be bought from a variety of locations on line, and if combined with a simple humidistat and a solenoid can easily be automated. The heads on most of these misting lines emit a very fine mist that shouldn’t actually wet the surface of leaves, unlike the heavy mist often produced by misting fans. Misting heads on misting lines like those shown in photo (Fig. 3) will need occasional cleaning to remove deposits from the solids in your water, but are otherwise simple to maintain. They are easiest to maintain if the misting heads are brass. Fig. 3 Misting lines shown attached to the top of a shade house. 16
