I recently purchased 3 head MIST maker TEFLON aeroponic FOGGER 4 NUTRAMIST - eBay (item 220680359870 end time Apr-06-11 09:44:54 PDT) which is a 3 Head Nutramist Aeroponic Fogger I got this to humidify my greenhouse outside (it's relatively small about 7x4 foot) but when I plugged this in all it does is push fog into container and then pours onto the floor it is in no way humidifying the air...what should I do? Am I missing something?

That is how they work. Fog is heavier than air, so it just hovers at the bottom of wherever it is. I attached a few pictures of some forgers like that in action. The ultrasonic foggers don't produce a high water content fog, but the fact it has a higher water content than the surrounding air makes it heavier than air, so it drops. If you are wanting to use it to help humidify your small greenhouse, there are a couple of things you can do. First is raise the container with the fogger from the floor up near the top of the greenhouse, then the fog will have farther to drop, and more chance to mix with the surrounding air. Second is air movement, use a small fan to blow the fog around the room, that will mix the fog with the surrounding air in the room.
