I have been having issues with my RH being tooo high, like around 75% and have finally gotten all of my humidors down to 65%. There is one issue that I think is ok, but I need to check. My cigars now have a spongy feel to them, not extensive, but they are not firm anymore. Is this normal? Is this the way they are supposed to be? They give about 20% when giving them a squeze. I looked through the forums, but could not find any info on this. The cigars are smoking GREAT right now and have no burn issues.
 
I agree - if you like the way they smoke - great!

Normally a spongy cigar is to damp & should dried a little.
Keeping your cigars to moist will lead to mold problems.
They should not be hard & brittle - some give is good, but not spongy!
IMHO
