# I have a greenhouse cabinet that my monstera is too big for. She’s…

I have a greenhouse cabinet that my monstera is too big for. She’s doing fine but added humidity would really kick start her growth! I’m wondering if anyone has any tricks or DIY hacks for a humidity box or something to help keep humidity high for her!

Depending on how big she is, you can use an unscented garbage bag, a grocery sack, or you can take a couple poles, tape them to her pot, then saran wrap around, said poles to make it kind of like a reverse Tepee,

You can also take a large sheet of plastic and tape it together to create a cylinder and put that around it. No I do not know how you would acquire a large sheet of plastic. I don’t know maybe a craft store or Home Depot 🤣

Poles and Saran Wrap is such a good idea! She isn’t very big—she has 5 leaves, about a foot in size! Thank you!!!

My biggest recommendation though is to just wait for a Facebook marketplace to have a cheap humidifier and then just have a designated humidifier for her

You could also do a pebble tray and or misting.

I know, I’ve tried but it doesn’t really work well in my house—it gets drafty and I’m in NY, so it’s a double whammy

Copy, its like spitting on a fire at that point. They do make the greenhouse covers you can buy separately, you could build a frame for

The Wolfen gods have spoken! Thank you🙏. I was probably gonna get one lolol

I'm always a "pop it in a bag" girl 😆 but I think it'd need to be like a matress bag for some of the bigger plants
