I would like to know an inexpensive way to raise the humidity in my 10 gallon terrarium above 40%. My neps grow fairly well in it, but don't produce many pitchers. Anybody know any inexpensive ways to raise the humidity to at least 50%?
You can also partially cover or completely cover the top with something as long as you put a fan inside. My Nep. grows very well in my 75gal tank which is completely covered, but has a large muffin fan at one end blowing the entire time that the lights are on.
Dig a hole down to the drainage layer and leave it open. Either that or put water in a spray bottle and mist the terrarium frequintly until humidity stays up.
Some people (like me) have to keep terrariums completly open or temps will get into the 100+ range. Even completly open temps in my terrarium range between 85-95.
If I were you I would close it. And put a small fan in it.
Just mist 1-2 times a day and it should be about 80% humidity in there.
If it gets to hot then lift the lights about 1'' above the terraria.
