Okay now down to business. My first question would be how accurate do you think those beads are and are they completely saturated? Do you have a hygrometer in there with the sticks?

That sounds like over humidification to me so I would double check that the beads are not completely wet and that they can absorb moisture. It is possible that you got the sticks from a B&M that keeps them wet and when you put them in your container your beads got full and can't absorb any more moisture. If that is the case then just use a blow dryer on them and dry about 30-50% of the moisture out...

Great advice!!!

I would add - try to dry box any cigars you plan to smoke in the near future!
