Burning problems...

[pierce652]

I dont think anyone mentioned to check the calibration on your hygrometer, it may be off. Also, I rotate the cigars in my humidor once a week. Take those on the bottom of the pile and bring to the top and the top to the bottom. I would definately start with a salt test, I bet you need to recalibrate.

That's too high... You definitly should let them sit in your humidor at 64% at least 2 weeks to a month. That should really help with the burn problems. Turn them occasionlly to so they get even exposure to the air.

Should I take them out of the wrapper?
The idea of keeping them for two weeks before smoking them, poses a problem for me. I don't have the money to keep a two week stock on hand. I buy them and smoke them in a day or two. Can I just leave them out of the humidor for a little while after I buy them. My apartment is air conditioned because it is hot as heck here in Texas. If I leave them out for a little while, will this dry them out enough to smoke? Thanks.

Should do the trick. Until you can get a bit more stock.
