I'm hella new to this so bear with me.
Bought my first desktop 25 ct humi and went with a xikar cigar bar and of solution. I followed the seasoning instructions as written out by xikar. And saw that it had settled at 72-73 rh and 75 F.
Did more reading around the boards, and saw that people posted that humis work well when 75% full. So I bought more sticks but the numbers remained even after a week.
Could i have over seasoned my humi? Should I ditch the cigar bar and switch to boveda packs?
also I store it in a dark cool spot in my condo and no changes.
Home rh is 70-75 lately. And temp has been no higher than 76-78. Thinking about throwing it in a cooler with some ice blocks (gonna take measures to reduce condensation, not sure how but ill figure it out.
Ok, I'm rambling now. But any other suggestions in lowering the temp? Would really like to avoid the beetles, cigars ain't cheap.
Thoughts? Comments? Criticisms?
