If you treat your machine right you would only have to wipe it down between grows. Ultrasonics are much easier to keep clean. They also put out more humidity and can raise the RH a lot better than the wicking filter style. The wick is just a towel and fan style unit and the filter/wick gets funky. The ultrasonics you have to use RO or distilled water or you get white dust on everything from vaporizing the minerals generally found in tap water.

I think almost all of them are ultrasonics now. Just find one with a mechanical on/off switch and you can let it control itself with an inkbird power strip humidity device. Yeah, extra $$ but lasts and you get easy maintenance.

After that, you can add these in tank bacterial inhibitors. I've seen them on the shelf at target in the humidifier section.


But yeah, you should get one. I think. Especially if you already have an RO unit. If not you will end up buying several jugs of distilled water from the store.
I got some ultrasonic disks off eBay and floated them in a 5-gallon bucket with a 2" muffin fan hooked up to an RH controller (InkBird), but this winter I was lazy and never turned it on so my RH has been around 30%. The girls still finished "very fine." My Burundian neighbor has a huge humidifier made out of a tote to keep her 8 x 10 shroom grow at 85% RH.

That's a cool setup. I was just lazy and did some research to buy a good ultrasonic at the store. Already had the RO machine as the tap water here is crusty.

I've got the same inkbird power unit. Nice stuff with a lot of adjustments.
 
I guess I never look at the tree always looking beyond at the water and the bluffs. It's in a state park so who knows what happened to it over the years
I been climbing trees since childhood. I built 3 tree-houses between age 5 and at 13. I gave up climbing with a chainsaw professionally at 68. So I look at every tree for how I'm gonna get up it. The panorama is pretty awesome too. I suppose Canada is behind the snowstorm on the horizon.

Good Morning All.......going to be a quiet weekend for a change because the high winds from the last couple of days knocked down enough trees that they have closed all of the snowmobile trails. Most weekends the place is just an incessant whine from all the sleds. Might have to try my snowshoes out on my new knee.......lots of fresh snow to soften my steps. Have a great Caturday folks.........stay lit and make it memorable.... :pass:
I don't miss the snowmobile noise, but I do miss hearing howling winds and snowshoeing/skiing from the backyard onward....(not that I can do either nowadays)

I won't trade it for our milder winters though...

Folks here can drive in torrential rain but they only think they can drive in ice and snow. Chaos a few days every year. (Just ask anybody here about square tires and block heaters and you'll get blank stares LOL)
