Over humidification and subsequent "coning"

The quickest way to bring the RH level down is to crack open the lid and leave it open and check on it at intervals.

Most definately switch to the beads and use the 65% ones if you have them.

From what I've read all over, only retailers use the 70% RH level to ensure quality levels while shipping.

For the humi's at home it's best to have 65% RH. So I'd say that your 65-63% range is just about perfect for the cigars. I've also noticed that cigars I've smoked at 70% were too "wet" for my likings.
