Beads/ Humidor Dilemma

-If it is one of those metal analog ones it usually is crap. Buy a decent digital adjustable hygrometer.

-No idea on the beads, I used heartfelt beads and switched to Shilala beads

-Don't rush things seasoning a humidor. The wood will soak up the humidity until it can hold no more. Not sure how long it takes but with my beads I'm at a near constant 63-65%

-My guess would be the hygrometer is not accurate. I salt test mine for 24-48 hours.
