I have mine even closer than that, pretty much nestled in so the mist can touch the canopy but not get the soil /substrate soggy

So did you place it higher than your plant so it doesnt touch the soil?

I would use a cool mist humidifier. You’re going to get a wet floor. I did.

My room is pretty big and open :)
