    As your addiction grows out of control, buy a pound of both 70% & 65%. purchase the tubes seperatly. I use the 65 in the summer months ( when it's humid as hell ) and 70 in the winter ( when it's bone dry ). I had a hard time keeping my humidity up at 65 in the winter so I changed to the 70%. It runs at an even 67 % all winter long.
    It will always be a battle a day between those who want maximum change and those who want to maintain the status quo.

    I would just use a spray bottle and spray them until most are clear. That is the easiest way.
    Yay! Cigars!

    Thanks. Do you have yours loose in some sort of container so that you can spray dirrectly onto the beads, dump them out of the tube, or spray through the tube?

    Thanks for the help guys! I think I got my beads dried out, and then re-saturated them w/only 4 teaspons. I only applied water (distilled) on about 3/4 of the surface area. I'm using 65% beads. Is it normal for the RH level to run high (around 70-72%) for a day or 2, and then drop down and level out? Thanks

    I have seen my 65% beads as high as 72% and then they drop down slowly. Once they my gauge reads about 60% I add some more water.

    OK. Great... I just wanted to make sure I didn't over saturate again.
    Thanks

    This is good info. Thanks for posting it. I'm not looking forward to our dry winters!
