I have read through the archives a bit but haven't seen my exact question asked or answered.
In an attempt to keep the humidity up for my baby CDT, I occasionally pour water in the substrate (orchid bark & coco cuir). It seems to be working fine, but I'd like to automate the system a bit.
Has anyone ever tried using a soaker hose system to periodically add water to the substrate? This could have the added benefit of also watering food plants in the enclosure.
I was thinking of trying to modify something like a Mist King system to use a small diameter soaker hose.
Thought and concerns are always welcome.
