The Basics of Fogging for Plant Protection

Fogging for plant protection involves much more than creating a fog. Recent equipment releases into the horticultural industry show videos of fog permeating a crop and rapidly obscuring the space with a thick, smoke-like fog that cannot be seen through. Systems like this are most commonly used in the filmmaking industry where battlefields are often made to look more realistic with plumes of “smoke” and the fog of war. Unfortunately, these fogging systems rely on two points that make them less useful for plant protection.
