Creating humidity in chilly apartments?

You could use a humidifier, spray the leaves regularly, and put the plants in your bathroom. If you have a tropical plant that needs humidity and there’s a cold draft then I’d probably suggest shutting the window that the draft is coming through too. Hope this helps! 😊

Misting per planta rec ✔️  
Bathroom ✔️

Our place’s baseline is chilly,  
even with the windows closed. I know the obvious answer is to crank the heat but $$$ lol

I’ll look into a humidifier.

Any thoughts about the water/pebble tray idea? Does that actually work?

I’ve heard of many people saying their pebble-trays work, I’ve never tried it myself but from the research I’ve done it does seem like it helps!

I've used pebble trays but I'm one of those people who can't tell the difference. I just bought a warm/cool mist humidifier since I don't want the room to be cooler than necessary and can be changed to cool mist in the summer. Someone else said they use their diffuser and I tried that for a different group of plants and they seem happy. Good luck and post what you decide to do.

The best humidifier I have found, is on Amazon. It’s less than $30.

To get higher humidity, use hand misting, i use the continuous spray ones with DI water. The other option is a humidifier, because people can't apparently clean their products, it's really hard to find one that's not "cool mist" but they are out there. Mine is a Dreo. It does both cool or warm. I wanted warm being in WA, to increase humidity and temp. I also used DI in that. I also liked this one because it had an app option, and schedule.
