It depends on a couple of aspects.
Some cigars seem to do better when dryboxed for a day or so, and I find that certain brands benefit more than others. It also has to do with how humid the enviroment is - in the summer when it tends to be pretty humid here i won't drybox because the humidity usually exceeds that in my humis - 65%ish. Conversly, when it is bonedry in the winter I also won't drybox because cigars dry so fast they they sometimes crack.
I've gotten into the habbit to cut a cigar, check the draw, and if it is tight drybox it for a day. Usually though not always the draw has improved. I don't drybox for more than a day except for when I forget....
