Either you messed up the beads, or the hygro is sh*t, or you are leaking like all hell.

How are your cigars smoking?

Yeah sorry I meant wineador.

I mean that since I saw the hygrometer at 45-50% I filled the container with the beads so that they are all submerged instead of just partial hydration.

They are smoking fine for the ones I have had lately but I don't even smoke too regular so it's tough to know. Also I am fairly new to this and thus so are most of the cigars so I don't really know if it is only a matter of time before they turn.

I live in 90% humidity and 26-30 Degrees Celcius. I don't imagine that putting them in a regular humidor (non-temp controlled) with dry beads would be better?
