If it's as humid outside as I wish for it to be in my humi, can't I just take my humi outside and open it up for a bit?

I just traveled and checked my smokes on the plane, needless to say.... decent RH doesn't exist right now in my two desktop humis!

I don't see whay not. Humis will adjust to the humidity of whatever enviroment they are in...just might take some time.

Too many types of mold & what not in the air to leave it open outside.
If the air is that humid - the RH in humidor will level off pretty quick
just open it up once or twice a day in the house.
I find during the very humid weather - I need to dry out my humi-beads, by placing them in the sun to dry & then back in my humidor to suck moisture out of the air.

What CC said. Keep the humidor inside. I understand the urge but you could open your self up to a world of hurt outside. What if your neighbor decides to weedeat or something? What RH are you shooting for? Back when I was looking at 70RH I would use those drymistat tubes that held a constant 70 they can regulate and bring up your humidity in a jiffy.

Robert,
Nice to see you post my friend!
You should look in at the beverage board.
I don't drink & don't read it - but I know you posting there would add a great amount of Wine knowledge to the board.
Hope to see more of you here.
Loren

Thanks for the info, I'll just leave them be inside.

It's so nice outside, gotta smoke one!
