in case of what specifically? just asking b/c I've always used PG gel but I was getting ready to make the switch to beads. I know nothing of their care and maintenance.

I for one would keep them separate just because they are different brands and may require additional water at different times. Plus I keep mine in several smaller bags throughout my humi just to even out the moisture.

I see no logical reason to keep them separate.

I have been mixing them for a couple of years with no ill effects. Just make sure that all beads are rated at the same humidity.

It's perfectly fine to mix them as long as they are of the same RH prescription (65% beads w/ 65% beads, 70% beads w/ 70% beads).

To my knowledge, we still use the same manufacturer.

I hope this helps

There you go, straight from the source.

I would try to avoid mixing different bead brands, but I don't have a good reason other than I feel like it messes with the order I have in my setup.

Thanks Mark it really does help. I went to your site and didn't see any beads. Figured you either stopped sellin em or just were sold out.

I have read different manufacturers calling for different methods of humidifying the beads. Since its the same manufacturer no worries.
