Default Re: Temperature problem

Ok, so my ac won't be fixed till tomorrow. IN the mean time, the temps crept up to 80 again even in teh pantry. I've thrown both humidors in the fridge.

My question is, the humitidty. At 74-75 degrees I was holding around 67-69%. When I lowered the temps via ice bags or when I had them temporarily in the fridge over the weekend, it dropped into the 50's. Should I adjust or leave it be as it returns to normal under warmer temps.

I really hope I didn't start the tobacco beetle cycle. Does it have to be continuous time at 80 degrees or higher? Because they haven't been constant. It's been up and down and everytime it got high I cooled it down.

How big is your cigar collection and how often do you check your sticks?
