In general, a full humidor regulated humidity the best and just use the the "squeeze test" to see if you are cigars are where they should be.

Meaning firm but with a little give? (btw hope you get to ride today Moses)

Basically. The cigar's head should not crack and they smoke the way you like them to. Having a number reading is good, but if it is off yet the cigars seem fine, it is ok.

Certainly a nice day for a ride. Perfect temp's out.

How many cigar humidor did you buy?

So if the test fails then you have a cigar with a cracked head? And if the test fails a lot, you have many cracked cigars?

Let's hope he doesn't fill it with cigars he'll out grow first.

Be careful with what you buy, especially with NC's.
