It certainly beats excessively high humidity any day.
ha youre so humble, you sound like you know exactly what your talking about. so should i mist the plants or get a humidifier?
Sjapp Reviewed by Sjapp on . will LOW humidity hurt a plant? If your humidity is around 20% or lower can it be bad for the plant? If it is I don't understand why it would be bad for the plant because the leaves don't absorb water do they? Rating: 5
