so far my only humidification is the 4oz humicare jar. My humidity is falling consistently. It's at 61 RH right now, I'm a bit worried if it drops below 60 RH. Do I need different humidification? I have a 300 count el diablo humidor. My cigars are smoking good though.

Wow 2 team of 11 responses BANG just like that, I feel like a celebrity thanks guys! I will order them right now. For a 2100 ISH Cubic CM Humidor how much beads should I order?
[Reply]

Bill, I believe the Heartfelt site can give you the amount needed, and I would assume the amount would be the same for the shilala beads. :-)

Thanks again, I'll have them shipped with wicked quickness and correct my humidor RH. I have a feeling that's why I'm having issues with the "self ashing"

The cigars should burn much better with the improved humidification, Bill. :-)
[Reply]

I'll be sure to test this out and stop smoking all my $15 cigars until the better humidification comes in. Thanks !

Also, a 300 ct Diablo is a pretty big humidor, have you seasoned it yet?
[Reply]

Yes It is seasoned, I didn't know that was considered a big humidor....it realistically probably only holds 225 cigars. 300 Is a gross overestimate. I have probably 150 ish cigars in it, couldn't imagine fitting more than 75 addition cigars in it. Unless I'm jamming up the poor thing. I'm betting the count doesn't consider the obvious (humidification + Hygro *not the crappy one they give you, but a GOOD digital one*)

It's not huge, but I'd imagine it isn't small either. As far desktops are concerned, it's on the big side. Compared to Tom's hugeador of awesomeness, not so much.
[Reply]

I got ya, yeah it is a bit big even for a desktop. I have mine stored in the closet where it gets no sun and probably a temp of 70 ish degrees. Very not hot. I take care of it, even if it was only like $110. Though I realize I'll either have to smoke more or buy another humidor.

Ok so I'm at heartfelt and they say there extra large tube does 2000 cubic inches I'm like 74 cubic inches over, am I still good for the tube or .....what? I'd hate to go grossly higher for a SLIGHT bit amount of space, also looking at ordering a Palio carbon fiber cutter.

You can never have too many beads!

get the Palio too!
[Reply]

You should be fine with that, Bill.
[Reply]

That's what I figured but I didn't want to order something then have to do it again immediately.

Done
[Reply]

You will love both your beads and the Palio. Congrats.
[Reply]

You could always get Aqua Gems. :-)

Anything that goes in flower pots isn't going near my cigars.

Thanks bob!

I was joking, Bill. Did you see the :-) after my remark?
