A mist bench is a growing area which is watered by intermittent bursts od
mist from mist nozzles via a valve controlled by a timer.

All the supplies are available from

Struppy, Inc.

Ask for their catalog. It's full of interesting stuff.

I've found their valves to be the most reliable and least expensive on the
market.
The controllers by Hardie, now a part of Toro AG, are great values too.

Shy away from the Mist-O-Matic system. It tends to get out of adjustment
as water leaves deposits on the vane. The timed systems are also more
flexible.

Charlie's Greenhouse

also supplies most of the components, but may be more expensive.
