Help - Whats the Deal w/ My Sticks

In my opinion, if they DON'T crackle just a little bit when I squeeze them, they are too wet for me.

I live in a humid environment, and my cigars do the same. Has nothing to do with being in Arizona, your humidor is the climate they live in.

Living in Arizona as well, I've dealt with humidity issues for many years. It took me quite a bit of guess and check to find out what works for me here in the desert. The advice in this thread is spot on, most B&M's (especially here in AZ) keep their humidor far too wet for proper storage/smoking.

Your numbers look good (a little high for my taste) so I wouldn't give it a second thought. Where in AZ are you?
