Think about walking into a sauna or a steam room, it is much more difficult to breath in that moist enviroment then if it was hot but dry. Same thing for plants.
OK, when you walk outside on a foggy day with 100% humidity it is not hard to breath.... Steamroom's and sauna's are HOT enviroments...Thus aggitating the lungs and or killing roots. Now, water holds oxeygen better at LOWER temps than higher temps. From 80 degrees and up YES u are depleating oxeygen. My water alone has enough oxeygen to sustain plant life. But since the roots hang in
HashHands Reviewed by HashHands on . Aero type Foggers, do you need root drying time? The single head and multihead ultra sonic type foggers available on ebay, these foggers put out a dry fog. I don't think that's in debate any further. It seems to me that anyone that has used these foggers quickly discovers that they need to supply the plants with additional water in one form or another.
