Small Greenhouse Humidifier?

16 years ago

I have a 6x8 Rion greenhouse and was wondering whether or not to place a small home humidifier in there this winter. I already have a small heater that I usually keep set at around 55 degrees. I have mostly Plumerias and a couple of bougainvilleas & mandevillas, plus a couple of citrus trees (lemon & lime). Any advice or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

A large bowl of water would work as a humidifier. The plumerias would probably appreciate humidity. I'm not sure about any of the others you mention.
