After seeing so many videos of people making their greenhouse I finally saved up and bought everything! Does anyone on here have tips or know what plants thrive in the humidity? I bought a mini fan for air circulation, humidifier, & leca so extra humidity, I’m currently waiting on my thermometer. I purchased the IKEA Rudsta, & sealed everything with DAP clear waterproof sealant. My only questions are how long should I have the humidifiers on, & how high of humidity?

    I can recommend all types of aroids but also Hoyas, Dischidia, Peperomia, Begonia, Pilea, orchids and bromeliads ☺️ If you have a hygrometer you can measure the humidity and can check how much you need the humidifier on. There’s a lot of combined hygro and thermometers on the market. I have one from exoterra. If you’ve sealed up the cabinet and the plants are watered that will also increase the humidity. Aim for a humidity that’s pending between 70-90% ☺️ Good with the fan as well to keep the airflow going otherwise you might risk water damages on the leaves. One more tip! Clean and quarantine all plants before you put them in the cabinet. And use biocontrol in there to prevent thrips and mite infestations. Best of luck!
