Could apply to melons perhaps, to some extent. Fancy way of concluding that maybe you can just mist the grafts, rather than use a high humidity chamber:

I have used misting before to heal the grafts, it does work great. The study only misted 2 to three times a day. I misted mine, using a propagation timer that went off for a couple seconds every ten minutes or so during daylight hours. I often wondered if it was better for the plants because I could keep the Relative humidity of the air at a better level. Plus they could be out in the sun during healing which along with lower humidity levels, may also be less conducive to spreading or starting disease. I still found it very important to keep the grafts warm like 75 degrees or so.
