Impatient :(

I find that using a small bowl with distilled water and a folded paper towel in it work very well too. More surface area for the water to evaporate.

This time of year with the humidity as high as it is, at least here in NC it's not unusual for me to leave sticks ROTT sitting on top of my humidor or on the counter for a week until I find time to get them sorted. Most of the time when it comes time to put them away they are still over humidified from their travels but all the other advice given so far works very well too. I use a Tupperware this time of year to quarantine anything new that comes in for at least a month due to the heat as I still don't feel comfortable freezing them and it works just fine. Just break up a Spanish Cedar box to help regulate the humidity levels and be sure to crack the top open for a few minutes at least once a week.
