Indoor Plant Hormonal Balances

FAQ About Indoor Plant Hormonal Balances

How do humidity levels affect plant hormones?

Humidity levels impact plant hormone activity by influencing stomatal behavior and transpiration rates, which in turn affect internal water status and hormone distribution. For instance, high humidity can slow transpiration, influencing the movement of hormones like abscisic acid within the plant, potentially affecting growth patterns and stress responses. Maintaining appropriate humidity for specific plant species helps sustain hormonal balance and health.
