DIY Mist propagator. Work in progress

Thinking about a similar project myself. I am planning on using a big plastic (I think 24ct) egg holder instead of a lid with cutouts. The target will be blueberry cuttings.

Has anyone used a humidity sensor in lieu of the timer? It is far less expensive to use a timer ($10-$15) vs the humidity sensor (~$40) but I’m wondering if results are better either way… I’m almost leaning towards just buying 2 timers assuming one will break and have a backup ready to go.

Also- pond mister vs. humidifier vs essential oil diffuser? I have a humidifier already that I am planning to set up underneath the cuttings but an essential oil diffuser could be a cheap choice if you don’t have a humidifier.

I’ll post pictures once I get started. How did your cuttings go the first time around @lordkiwi?

Is that cut baby bottle lids I see you put the cuttings in for the gooseberry thread? How did that go with removing them?
