Because I'm short: Mister to dripper connection?

[Galaxy]

So, I was wondering if anyone has attempted this before, attaching part of a mistking system to a Big Dripper so one doesn't have to constantly refill it?
With the new cage on the table we're currently using, I'm going to have to get a step ladder or something since there's no way I'll be able to reach the top.
I know I'd have to get another nozzle to keep the pressure consistent, and I have a couple of Mistking T splits (since I've been planning on making his current nozzle into a diy rain nozzle).
Thoughts? Experiences?

Yes there's a post by Ferretinmyshoes that shows how she did it. I think there are a couple other threads that show that concept, too. As long as your dripper doesn't stop dripping and the fill rate isn't too fast it works really well.

Perfect! I tried searching but that one never popped up. Thanks for sharing!

my husband has mine set up so the tube that stores the water for the drippers in opened by the misters shutting off. Then 1/2 hour is closes again.

You're welcome. The search button doesn't always pull up what I'm looking for, either.

So why do't you send your husband to members who need his craftiness??

What is wrong with you? Share the wealth.

Turning a mister into rain dome DIY

Hi Galaxy,
I followed the link here and adapted the directions on a DIY rain dome and it worked out well for me. Simply put, take a plastic cup and drill a hole so the mister will fit tightly into the bottom. Place the cup on top of the screen and maybe a weight on it. I used an abalone shell. (Looks good too).
The spray hits the side of the cup and the screen then turns into rain drops. I used the other mister conventionally mounted on the inside to wet the rest of the plants that are missed by the rain dome.
Best of luck, Greg
