Good afternoon from my state of California. I am doing well. All my tropical beauties are doing great, thriving, growing, and looking amazing. I decided last night to try an experiment with my silver dragon plant. The experiment that I am currently trying is, I took a clear plastic bag with exception of having black print on it but overall clear plastic and the steps that I did are as follows 1)open the bag and spray water in the bag as a mist trigger towards the hope of a humidity increaser introducer to try to prevent the edges of the leaves crisping among the attempt to rehydrate the edges of the leaves, then this morning I put the silver dragon plant with the plastic bag over it right in front of the window being inside and getting some good sunlight indirectly to allow the process of trying to raise the humidity up and the attempt of rehydrating the edges of the leaves on my silver dragon. How long should I leave the plastic bag over the plant? Images are coming

I wouldn’t leave the plant in for any more than three days. Also I suggest you use chopsticks or skewers to prevent the leaves from touching the bag. If the leaves stay on the bag for too long it can rot them, and if it’s in direct sunlight, it will cook the leaves, so definitely keep it in warm indirect light.I would also recommend blowing a breath into the bag and sealing it so the plant has some carbon dioxide. Is the bag sealed to the pot with anything? If so, make sure some oxygen can get in there, like a small hole in the bag or you opening it up for a little bit each day. I hope this helped. Have a great rest of your day!
Sounds like a good idea. Depending on the size of the plant you could put a large container over it and seal with tape. I’ve also made a mini greenhouse by putting plastic wrap around the plant and sealing it with a rubber band around the top of the pot. I could help you figure out how long to keep the plastic on once I get a picture of the leaves.
