The only time I have ever had a problem with wrappers splitting is when the cigar is really dry, as in dried out. I don't think you are going to have any problems since your smokes were already living in a nice humid home, it would take some serious time in really low humidity for things to really dry out.

I think Basil was refering to the splitting that occurs when the filler or binder tobacco expands faster than the wrapper due to rapid increase in humidity. I have had this happen to me with cigars that were a little dry and thrown directly into the humi.

Yep, me too - that's what I was talking about.

Thanks guys... I'm not quite so worried now.
Humidity seems to fluctuate from about 60% in the morning to 55% in the afternoon when I get home. With luck, it'll creep a bit higher and all will be well. Fingers are crossed.
