Seasoning a humidor with boveda packs.

Question is, will it hurt the cigars, I'm just asking if there are any huge problems in my logic, or anything I overlooked.

I believe you cigars will absorb moisture first and act as a tobacco flavored sponge. Do it I'm curious.

You might be right, but the Bovedas should keep humidity below 69% so properly humidified cigars won't absorb an inordinate amount of moisture, since the wood is drier it will absorb all of it, to about 69%. Then the Bovedas should keep the RH stable, my main concern is whether 69% packs will season the wood sufficiently.

We shall see.
