What humidity should a seasoning humidor be at?

I think Badwhale is the only member on this board that uses a hydrometer. Maybe Buzz too - they're both funny like that...

It took me about 3 years to finally lose my "fear" of running my humidor too wet/dry. Just make sure you do not let everything dry completely out and you'll be fine.

...and don't use tap water - use only distilled water.

Well, I mean, I have both. Hygrometer AND hydrometer. Don't you keep an eye on your cigar's specific gravity?

Everyone is so obsessed with rh. (squirly eyes!!!)

What is this "gravity" you speak of and how concerned should I be?

very, very concerned. I mean, how else can you figure out the tobacco's country of origin / blend characteristics if you don't have a hydrometer?

We should all be concerned that this is probably the first conversation on this board about the importance of your cigars’ specific gravity.
