They need the 24-7 moisture and misting drops off in a matter of
minutes, plus it can lead to stuff like crown rot and other stuff.


Any pointers on how to keep that constant humidity going?
I've done a winter of feeding humidifiers for orchids in the house
and have enjoyed the extra humidity myself. But I'm thinking it
might be smarter to do something automatic for the whole house
to bring up the base humidity for the house so I'm not refilling
humifiers as often.

Thoughts? Suggestions?
