Fogponics- can I leave a fogger on 24/7

First ever fogponics build. Can I leave my fogger on 24/7 or will I develop rot on my stems. The leafy top of the cutting is separate from the fog. There is good airflow. I can't put the ultrasonic humidifier on a timer so it has to run 24/7

You can as long as it doesn't cause heat to build up. You need to be under 70℉ in your res temps.
Do you advise using a humidity dome when doing fogponics? I took the dome off of one clone and it didn't wilt in 5 minutes despite having no roots yet. Is the dome necessary with fog surrounding the stem?

Nah these clones are going outside once they root. I enjoy aeroponics/fog but I'm not quite ready to make a full grow with it. My fogger clogs constantly and needs to be refilled often so it's a bit of a hastle.

Edit: Also could you tell me how to find this YouTube video I'm intrigued

Does your water not recycle back to the reservoir?

No it's an external ultrasonic humidifier that pumps fog into the resevoir. It just kind of works out this way and I figure it helps keep heat down within the res.
So it's one of those ultrasonic foggers with the super fast vibrating discs that float on the water surface? Then you draw that air into your container with a fan... or what? I'd love some pics...

Now that's where you're wrong. Yields and outcome may be the same, sure. But you ain't never gonna see those peach fuzz hairs coming off your roots like that in DWC.
