I like this Pure Enrichment humidifier a lot.
Pros: - pretty quiet - compact compared to some, and appropriate size tank for a bedroom overnight - easy to clean: no crannies that you can’t muscle your way to w some ingenuity and some paper towels/ q tips. Though I usually just soak the basin/well and fiddly bits in distilled vinegar once a week. - easy to fill and dump bc the cord detaches from the base of the humidifier
Cons: - there are only 2 humidity settings, so customization is limited - there is a bit of a blue glow from the button that I find irritating. I usually just flip it away from me, but ymmv depending on your light tolerance
Just get a humidifier like you would for your house. You don’t need to run it all the time, or at least I don’t. I run it later in the day and throughout the night to simulate their environment as they need it drier during the day and up to 100% at night. Pretty sure you can find em for like $25-30 at Walmart or on amazonthis is the one I use but there’s a bunch of lower priced ones. Just set it next to the gecks tank and you should be just fine. If you don’t wanna buy that, then I’d just mist 2 times a day, once at morning once at night, and again you should be fine if you’re using substrate it should hold humidity pretty well.
I have this one and like it. Seems good enough for my bedroom. https://smile.amazon.com/Pure-Enrichment-MistAire-Ultrasonic-Humidifier/dp/B013IJPTFK/ref=sxts_b2b_sx_fused_qd?content-id=amzn1.sym.62a99541-27fa-4056-948f-ab593cb35b6d%3Aamzn1.sym.62a99541-27fa-4056-948f-ab593cb35b6d&crid=1WW8M1RFENK5I&cv...
I also just put on a few pots of boiling water on the stove. That works very well in my kitchen/living room area.
We use this one. It’s wonderful.

I used to use this humidifier. The only reason was because I already had it around the house. I had to group the plants kind of close since the vapor stream was kind of small, but since I didn't have a ton of plants, it worked for me. My calathea zebrina was totally fine using this, so if you're looking for a more budget-palatable option, might be worth taking a look at!
I got this one . It has a ton of reviews and, even tho I try to avoid Amazon whenever possible, I couldn’t think of anywhere else to buy one. I hope my plants like it, but I really hope my dry nose likes it lol
This kind of design is my favorite, it seems the 'cleanest' to me since filters can grow mold (and need to be replaced) and anything warm and wet can also grow bacteria/mold.
I ordered this humidifier as it was the #1 most recommended on Amazon in my price range:
I got this one for my bedroom and love it. High/low modes, w/wo light, quiet, easy to clean. Lasts 24hrs on low, 16ish on high.
We have https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013IJPTFK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awdb_t1_ybRkAbRHRG8QC and it works pretty well. It has a nightlight feature you can choose to use and I like that the mist is visible so I know it's working. And it's super easy to clean. Our last one had the filter you needed to replace and it was such a hassle.

It would be perfect if I didn’t have to manually turn it on when I check on the girls in the morning but it seems like its working out.
My versi has been kickin butt for a few years, so fortunately I think I've got a decent ventilation situation going on for her now.
Is this the kind of humidifier you use? https://smile.amazon.com/Ultrasonic-Cool-Mist-Humidifier-Whisper-quiet/dp/B013IJPTFK/ref=smi_www_rco2_go_smi_g2609328962?_encoding=UTF8&%2AVersion%2A=1&%2Aentries%2A=0&ie=UTF8
I got this one from amazon based on the reviews and I really like it! It's small-ish but holds enough water to last all night plus it has a nightlight in it https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013IJPTFK/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&psc=1&linkCode=ll1&tag=iamheahen-20&linkId=2b5ed9342333d3aeb38946691c58f783
Think - humidifier cheap.
I don't need sleep I need answers
One more question: can Mona be, against her will, shoved into this
Pure Enrichment® MistAireTM... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013IJPTFK?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share. Low cost it will keep your 4x4 as high as 75%rh. Has multiple settings to go higher or lower rh.
I used this one humidifier but only because it was an old one I had around the house. Someone recommended this one
Hope this helps!
We actually have 4; 2 of these which do almost nothing and 2 of these which are helpful but don't make a huge contribution when it's super dry. We keep those running around the clock in the winter. When our hygrometer (recommended) dips below 30%, we boil a pot of water on our stove until it hits a comfortable range.
Also, keep in mind that your windows have to stay closed or it's pointless. We often have to choose between warm and dry or hot and humid, since we don't control our heat.
Hope it helps.
Little more expensive than the super cheap ones that are on amazon but this one changed my life completely. Also, its plenty powerful for my small apartment room
Yes. I’ll link to the amazon page.

I have 2 of these for both of my rooms and my calatheas love it: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013IJPTFK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_5l6DFbEKY9XHC
I just bought this one last month and I've liked it so far.
I use THIS one. It is ultrasonic so it doesn't add heat to your grow.
