    Excellent post Mrtr33. Welcome to the board Scoob, I would suggest investing in some humidity beads at your local cigar or smokeshop. These beads will maintain a constant rH and will keep it from fluctuating. Oh, and a hygrometer to measure rH is also suggested, but the beads will help maintain a constant humidity. You want the inside to rest around 65-70% humidity.

    Might I also suggest you search on the upper right for humidor set up, you might find some older posts that could help you out too.

    You need to raise the vapor partial pressure of the air in relation to the saturation vapor partial pressure at the dry bulb temperature. Below is a chart that should help.

    Thanks, Buzz! I've been looking for that particular chart forever! Now I can finally get my Longaberger baskets properly organized.
