I use this to water the plants more directly

Certain plants might need it more often but the humidity should always be high enough to not need misting

I never water my terrariums directly. If they need water, I just spray water in there with a spray bottle, since it’s easy to give too much water with something else. Also, if you’re keeping it closed, it can probably go a lot longer than a week without water. I only add water when I notice that it stops fogging up, since that means there’s less water in the system.
