Ziploc XXL to the rescue! I keep these on hand to sometimes marinate meat in but apparently they have another use as well.

These are really handy for overflow. Since they collapse u can use less humidity control.

What do you use to humidify that?

Looks like at least 2 Boveda packs.

As you broaden your buying experience, you’ll find vendors that pack small Bovedas in their shipments. You can repurpose them for the Ziploc “humidors”.

I've got 4 69% 60g and a couple 69% 10g boveda's that came with some of the cigars. It's been held on 69% RH since I loaded it.

I could probably take out one or two of the 60g but I had extra so in they went.

only caution is that the poly bag will not protect your cigars like a ziplock box would...accidentally dropping something heavy on the bag could be disastrous...

I wasn't careful when I said better than a wooden humi,
I use the thickest/best ziplock freezer bags I can find and stash them in a drawer.

For sure. I got it stashed under a table that isn't used in a corner so pretty safe from drops. Prob gonna be getting another 60qt Ziploc WeatherShield soon.

Daddy was a coroner. Those drawers are cold. And spooky. Wasn't even able to get to sleep the first four nights.
