Stop rearranging and playing with your sticks and maybe just maybe you'll keep some of that moisture in...

...or maybe not.

I have had my humidor for about 8 weeks now. The humidity level will not go above 60%, no matter what I try. The temp inside the humidor stays around 72 degrees. I use a digital as well as the original hydrometer to measure the humidity. I keep it in my living room at room temp..

Where do you live, and where'd you get the humidor?

Nice one Robby! BDS, if it won't go above 60% you are underhumidified. Stop playing with the crappy humidifier disk and get a Paradigm or Diamond Crown humidifier.

Have you calibrated the hydrometer? Maybe it's off.
