    Promote humidity, some need it to be happy. Just make sure you don't do it in bright sunlight or we will burn your plant

    You don't need to mist your plants. It doesn't do much. Its a myth unless you are misting all day long. Some plants hate it..

    Misting helps with humidity and keeping leaves clean from dust build up.

    Humidity in the air is more important. Some plants like some epiphytes can take in water through their leaves. Others with more leathery leaves often buildup dust so cleaning that off is important but that often requires more than misting and having water sit on the leaves. Having water sit on the leaves isn't a substitute for proper humidity. I nearly killed my new platicerium by not knowing this.

    I have 80+ plants and have never misted any. If you have a plant that requires higher humidity you're better off putting that plant in a greenhouse environment where you have more control over the humidity 😊🪴

    I’ve never misted any plants but it’s to help with humidity. If you have a humidifier or if your plants aren’t crisping from dry air, you should be fine
