Re: Humidity: Seasonal Change of rH
Place your cigars in a tuppordor while you get this sorted
Calibrate your hygros
Place a small dish with a damp sponge in your humidor and allow to climb to 80ish. Remove the dish/sponge and see how it holds the RH. It should hold fairly steady for a couple days.
If it does not you need to work on sealing your units better. Silicone any glass , seams etc. Add a gasket to the lid. It sounds like your using beads , make sure its from a reputable brand such as HCM or HF.
If it holds steady you can return your cigars/humidification. That should also pull the RH down to more reasonable levels. Adding more than the necassary amount if beads is never a bad idea.
