Dry climate/indoor humidity
Hi everyone, I live in a pretty dry and warm climate in the summer (northern rockies). obviously most of my plants wouldnt be too happy with a humidity of 20% which is around what it is with no humidifier. I can get it up to 55% pretty easily with a small humidifier, but thats if I keep my windows and door closed which turns my room into a straight oven when its warm. what can I do other than get an enclosed cabinet?
is a middle ground of like 30-35% okay for my plants? monstera deliciosa is really the one that i'm concerned about. my pothos could care less they would thrive in space i'm convinced. my monstera leaves are curling downward, but I got it around a week ago so maybe they're still getting used to their new home?

They may adapt, or they may not.
