Planta is recommending I mist a few of my plants. I have a humidifier on them at 80% humidity, do I still need to mist them?

I wouldn’t. Research has shown that misting plants only increases your humidity for a very, very short time. I usually mark it as done, but instead have a humidifier as well.

The only ones I mist are my Hoya and occasionally Monstera and Philodendron. All in all the use of a humidifier and pebble tray are better options than misting.
