65% HF beads reading 70%???

No, I used bowls of DW and a seasoning packet from Boveda during the week long seasoning.........the beads, I just added a couple days ago. Maybe things will settle over time?

That's what I'm thinking. Give it time to level out as I think the humidor(s) are seasoned to 70%. Might be faster if you leave the beads out for a few hours to let some of the moisture in them go, then put them back in so they can pull in the "extra" humidity.\

Also, if your cigars are smoking up to par, then I wouldn't worry yourself too much. As long as you're enjoying your cigars then it really doesn't matter what RH you have.

I have found that when seasoning a humi, it usually is in excess and the RH is higher than needed. My vino trays were close to 80RH when I seasoned. I had to open the door for 24 hours and then put my sticks back in.

Give it time to drop and it will stabilize.
