Buy a small humidifier from WM. That would solve it. They aren't very expensive. Or you can go ghetto and can put a small bucket of water in your grow area. You could add an oscillating fan and install the bucket behind your fan. As the water evaporates, the humidity will go up.

Or add a cheap and small water fountain. You can pick these up at second hand stores. Just clean with bleach first. Will add humidity and tranquility. :)

mogie, the last one i stumbled over was going for well over 100 bucks, in a second hand store, and that thing really wasn't to impressive looking either...

but the pumps for those fountains go for less then 10bucks and those placed into a rubbermaid box, some holes in the lid and volá, fountain green'style for under 15bucks and you are sure that it will run;)
