I will probably wait for my T's adult enclosure to add live plants but im glad I can use them.Ill probably try breaking one of my pots in half (i ordered a pack of 2) if i fail i can always try using a hack saw. Apparently if you soak it in water for 24 hours they are easier to cut and dont break apart. Theres a few videos online of how to do this but it doesnt look very easy lolWhen I first started to research tarantulas I was looking at the care sheets, however most differ from each other drastically so I did more research using youtube and blogs. Immediately it was obvious how inaccurate the care sheets are. And yes most of them streesed about humidity levels, where as nearly every Tarantula keeper says to just keep a water dish and mist once a week depending on species. Its worked fine for me so far but I was always curious as to what to do for a sling in a small enclosure (too small for a water dish), I have heard dropping water in using a straw or syringe is better than misting with a spray bottle? Is this true? Do tarantulas prefer bigger water droplets?I can only imagine how many Tarantulas some members here have. Its always interested me how they are able to keep so many. I would think a tarantula could accidentally be forgotten and not fed or watered? Im referring more to the people that have 100's of T's. I imagine they would have very strict feeding schedules.Yes, it is very helpful having so many experienced tarantula keepers in one place, that are willing to share theyre knowledge. Its a nice little community you all have created here <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
