HELP. I can't get consistency in my Humi.

I've got a newbish question....what does it do when you have sticks in there while you're trying to season the humi? Does it prevent the humi from catching the right levels?

If it's a new humi the sticks will soak up the humidity, you need the cedar to become saturated (no wiping down the wood, could warp) gradually with the distiller water, once the cedar is saturated and holding humidity then add sticks, humidity will fall at first because of the sticks but will come back up.

This is what I used to seal my glass up.

low/no odor.

It's slightly more runny then regular silicone so it is able to flow into the crack between the wood and glass to make for a good seal. It's not so runny that it goes everywhere and makes a big mess though.

I ran a small bead around the inside of the humidor and let it sit over night.

The key to making it work and look nice is just cutting a small hole in the nozzle, take your time and try to have a steady hand.

This stuff worked great for me.
