Hi! Do you all mist your plants when Planta prompts you to? I’ve always heard that’s unnecessary. We do run a humidifier in the winter. If you do mist your plants, I appreciate any tips!

Nope. I just skip it

I did when I first started using the app but it quickly got tedious and overwhelming. Switched to a humidifier! You can turn misting off in the settings 👌

I mist my plants occasionally, mostly to help young leaves come in and any time I'm already using the mister to water my mosses

Misting doesn't improve humidity for any noticeable amount of time, so I don't bother. A plant leaf that needs help unfurling is the only time I get the spray bottle out.

I turned off the mist notifications. I feel like it just causes fungal issues and gnats. I do use humidifiers.

Thanks everyone! Didn’t realize I could turn off misting in settings :)

I love misting my plants! It feels like a little kiss🩷 so yes I do it per the notifications but idk if it actually helps
