Hey all,

Just started my first coolidor. Started small, despite all the warnings

54 Qt jobbie. Anyway..I am using two 4 X 1.5" Soap dishes with wet florist foam for the humidifiers. They are well soaked in distilled water. I have been checkng the readings for 2 days, and I can't get the RH above 54%! I have four empty cigar boxes in there and that is it. No cigars to absorb the moisture. Where is it going? How can I increase the RH? I have the drain plug closed. I have used a digital and analog hygro with the same readigs (the analog was a little higher but only at 58%). Thanks for any help!
