I know it depends on literally everything but looking for some guidance to start. Thanks! ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/bietQkiKSR4V9kCj5sMgm0mjb9BlrbOeMgEd5oOLxFA/jurMbnT_QUm1AsjTSu-g2w.webp?size=large) ## 11件のコメント ### Wolfen 🐺さんが2024-11-27にコメントしました In general it's 1-3ft from the plants I want it to mainly effect. My Dreo has % settings. So I just set it to , say 70%, warm or cool and it cycles on and off as needed. If you don't have one that has settings you could get a Govee hydrogemeter. It has a phone app, and you can set it to alert you when the humidity or temp go under or over your setting. So you can know to turn the humidifier on or off ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/LABcXOiTFudmBUCsau2S0dZnnxDdeMAvwSHhNs7sG2k/rb0KRLaERJKszhugrgtKNA.webp?size=large) #### Loさんが2024-11-27に返信しました Thanks! #### Christineさんが2024-11-27に返信しました I have a (probably dumb) question… Is a diffuser like a humidifier? #### Wolfen 🐺さんが2024-11-27に返信しました A diffuser won't put enough moisture into the air. They usually have pretty small tanks. And just don't have the output to make an impact. To give you an idea, My Dreo will go through a gallon of Distilled water in a 10hr period, keeping the living room at 70% humidity (normal humidity at around 55%) If you had one in say a cabinet, it may push out enough to help a bit though #### Loさんが2024-11-28に返信しました Yes it’s pretty small and only lasts a couple of hours. But I use it anyway so thought I would set it by the plants and see what happened 🤷🏻‍♀️. I also have a larger Vicks brand that is in my bathroom and has much better output. Not sure if it will hurt, help, or make any difference, so I’m eager to try! #### Wolfen 🐺さんが2024-11-28に返信しました Any output near a plant will act like a misting at least. And really if your humidity is low, anything is a plus ### Plantsmybelovedさんが2024-11-27にコメントしました I have mine on 24/7 but it adjusts automatically based on the rooms current humidity. I have one for the whole room so it anywhere from right next the plant to ~10 feet away #### MunBunさんが2024-11-27に返信しました Hi, what brand of humidifier do you use? #### Plantsmybelovedさんが2024-11-27に返信しました I got one from Costco recently, I'm not sure what brand it is ### Ezzeldin Yaqoubさんが2024-11-27にコメントしました My entire house has a built in humidifier. ### Philさんが2024-11-30にコメントしました I was turning mine off at night but may be rethinking that idea because this morning house humidity was at 35%. So I feel that you need the hygrometer because every house is different. I aim for 55%. I have two small humidifiers running as needed. Got really great price on Amazon restock area. --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
