I hat a wet and bad burning cigar - I prefer 65% for mine over the 70% that most sites seem to recommend, you might want to play around a bit to see where you like your RH at.
Thanks Volt. One of my concerns has to do with the amount of 'dead space' in my humidor. I have about 35 sticks right now and the capacity of my humidor is listed at 125 which I figure to mean about 100 of my preferred size. I will surely accumulate more over time, but if I can add something else to act as a filler until then, then things should be fin according to your advice.
