The plastic cover will help, it jumped my humidity from barely registering up to around 40%. I've got a seed tray (1x2 ft) full of water on the shelf under my plants and each plant is on their tray with pebbles in them too. Humidity goes from about 80-50 night-day. Temps are way too low also for me so with warmer conditions humidity would be higher if you can get the water in the trays warm.
If you need warmer conditions in it also, I've thought about trying a glass jug of water with an aquarium heater in it cranked up. That would raise the temps and also raise the humidity. Would be a variation of what Hacker put in his other post.

prmills, that is a very good idea to use a heater to raise both humidity and temp. Rymah, have you tried the Zilla Humidity and Temperature Gauge for reptiles? This thing is cheap. hb

Rymah - Sorry, I fixed the post, your right, at night my humidity goes up and day it goes down. With warmer temps, the air can hold more water so the reading drops.
