How do you retain moisture and humidity for growing transplanted plants indoors?

Since transplants are typically grown during the winter when humidity is low, a well-vented plastic dome can be placed over the transplants some or all of the time. The use of peat pots can make the transplants require more frequent watering, since the spongy, porous organic material the pots are made from wicks moisture away from the roots and potting media. Using plastic pots can help stop this.

What are some disadvantages and advantages of using small potted plants as compared to seeds?
By "small potted plants" I assume you mean seedlings... The main advantage is for folks like me, who live in an area with a very short growing season: the seeds can be started indoors, much earlier than the seeds would be planted outside. Then, the seedlings can be transplanted outside, when I don't have to worry about them dying because of the cold. Also, you don't have to wonder if your seeds are germinating and there's less likelihood that the birds will eat them.
Do clothes dry faster indoors or outdoors?
Drying is the process of removing moisture. So it depends. A hot day, not high humidity, preferably breezy and they dry faster outside. Then again, by the time you take them outside, hang them up, the inside drier might be a bit faster.
Why wet clothes dry slowly on a rainy day?
Things remain damp and wet, and take longer time to dry when the atmosphere around them is damp and wet. Humidity is the amount of moisture or water vapour present in air at any moment in time. On a humid day, the air is full of water vapour. As the air gets warmer, its capacity to hold the water vapour increases. As a result, conditions become more and more humid. Hence, wet clothes take longer time to dry on a humid day.

Well, indoors it is often cooler and cannot hold as much water vapor. Also, there is less water vapor in the air, and thus you are unable to feel the heaviness/stickiness of humidity.
What are you supposed to now about mold?
Molds produce tiny spores to reproduce. Mold spores waft through the indoor and outdoor air continually. When mold spores land on a damp spot indoors, they may begin growing and digesting whatever they are growing on in order to survive. There are molds that can grow on wood, paper, carpet, and foods. When excessive moisture or water accumulates indoors, mold growth will often occur, particularly if the moisture problem remains undiscovered or un-addressed. There is no practical way to eliminate all mold and mold spores in the indoor environment; the way to control indoor mold growth is to control moisture.
What is the best way to prevent mold from growing on windows?
The main things mold needs to grow in a home are organic materials to feed on and moisture. In houses there are always plenty of organic materials for mold to live on such as wood, drywall and various other building materials. You can prevent from mold by applying following points: 1 Prevent moisture with proper ventilation. 2 Dry wet areas immediately 3 Equip your home with mold-resistant products. 4 Monitor humidity indoors.

What is ideal humidity in household?
Ideal Humidity. I do not think that there is an ideal humidity. Where I live most people have approximately 40 percent humidity. This must be seasonally adjusted to as low as 20 percent in the winter time otherwise condensation on cold surfaces, such as windows, will occur. Indoor humidity should be reduced or increased relative to the temperature outdoors and personal comfort level indoors
Is 65 percent humidity level ok?
It can depend on the circumstances, indoors or outdoors, if indoors even family health and mould growth may apply at a 65% level. Indoors 50/55% is acceptable, it is unlikely that mould will grow. It is possible that even at 50% condensation may appear on your windows in cold weather. If someone in the family is asthmatic, the humidity in the bedroom should be 40% or lower. Dust mites are active at over 50%. If outside, then 65% is fine

Can temperature and humidity changes damage art?
Water can damage canvas, paper and wood. So if you are purchasing a portrait on canvas, you will want to protect it from humidity and rain. Keep these prints indoors for maximum life span. If you are planning a purchase for outdoors, prints on ceramic tiles are a better choice, as they can withstand humidity, water and changing temperatures better.
