Why Use a Humidity Tray for Orchids?

It can be difficult to maintain that kind of humidity level indoors all the time and this is where the humidity tray comes in handy!
How to Make a Humidity Tray for Orchids?
You can make your own humidity tray by using a plastic disk, a layer of stones with gravel, and water. Place the orchid pot, with a drainage hole at the bottom, carefully over it. The water that evaporates from the humidity tray offers extra humidity to the beauties.
