Default Re: Humidor humidification question

This isn't a method that many use. The humidity in my humidors takes a dive in the winter because my house is dry from the heat. I buy 12 of the 69% Boveda humidity packs every winter to "supplement" my beads. This tends to work great for the 3 months that the packs last. My Vinodor doesn't need any help at all. Stays at 65% all the time.

Honestly, they are smoking well. However, they haven't been at this humidity for very long and most are in either cellophane or in finger bags. I have very few nude sticks. So, this could change in time.

Would I really notice much of a difference if the humidity stayed down for an extended period of time? Probably not.

That is where I am going with this. Your cigars are fine and many collectors keep boxes at your humidity for decades, so I would not worry too much about it.
