# The hygrometer on our thermostat says the humidity in our home is…

_Posted by Raquel on 2024-10-19_

The hygrometer on our thermostat says the humidity in our home is between 30-35% would that be ok for my plants? If not is the placement of these humidifiers ok? (they’re circled in white) I placed them there to show where I would place. Suggestions are appreciated.

Where's your hygrometer located? Near the plants or further out?

I ask because plants, especially a lot in a small area, will provide a bit of their own humidity. We have hygrometers in various places around our house; humidity is normally between 35-40% through the house but the plant corner sits around 50-55% and the plant cabinet is 60-65%, all without humidifiers.

As long as your plants are growing well, I'd say leave it as is. If they start showing signs of lacking humidity (crispy leaf edges) you could try running one humidifier- any of those locations would be fine- and see if that helps.

Our hygrometer is not close to the plants but I feel like the plants are all doing well for the most part the only ones that seem to be struggling are my prayer plants
