FAQ
What’s it best for?
Wetting moss poles and pole fill like our Tree Fern Fibre, keeping cuttings and seedlings damp while they root, and giving plants a light foliar feed.
Will misting raise the humidity around my plant?
Only for a few minutes. A fine mist evaporates quickly, so it won’t change the air around a plant in any lasting way. Where misting really earns its place is keeping moss poles, cuttings and seedlings damp, and that’s what the Tallboy is built for.
Can I foliar feed with it?
Yes. Indoor Plant Food can go on as a light foliar feed, mixed as per the directions. Keep it off plants in direct sun and away from hairy, delicate or freshly unfurled leaves. Mixed plant food keeps for 48 hours, so tip out anything left after that.
How much does it hold?
350ml.
Is any of it plastic?
No. The Tallboy is handmade and all metal, so no two finishes are exactly the same.
Why the tall shape?
It’s easier to grip and gives you more control over where the mist lands.
