how much can plants absorb water from the atmosphere from humid days?
I suspect some plant's leaves can absorb water from the air directly.
Seeing my hazelnut saplings shrivelling in midday heat. However it is very humid with dew points of 73. So can plants absorb moisture out of the air and to what extent?

: I suspect some plant's leaves can absorb water from the air directly. Seeing my hazelnut saplings shrivelling in midday heat. However it is very humid with dew points of 73. So can plants absorb moisture out of the air and to what extent? The amount of water that plants will absorb from the air when the humidity is less than 100% is pretty much 0. The reason for this is that within the leaves, there are air spaces, where the humidity is at or very close to 100%. If the humidity outside the leaf is lower, water will always move out of the leaf.
