CURSE the new humidor. Makes me want to stock up!
My humidor just came in today need to prep it. how many days do you usually prep your new humidor? Some say a few days, some say over night...

Time for me to fill it. I have like 3 times the space which = more money spent on cigars!!!

so you don't recommend the 70/70 cigar juice or the Isopropyl solution?

I have used distilled water before and I think it works really good

I guess I have never had a "SPICY" cigar before. I think it was mouth going numb about halfway through and I didn't taste the spice as much

i like spicey.
yeah, used distilled water to dampen all the cedar with a sponge or whatever, and put a shot glass or bowl or whatever full of water in your new box over night.
Then take it out and let it sit for another 12 hours or so an used the 50/50 solution in your humidification device and load up yoru box with smokes.

that's the plan!

My wife went to the OBGYN. Good news and bad news...

They did an ultrasound and the baby is already 7 lbs 14 ounces
Bad news is the baby is in the Breach, (or Brich???) positon so if they can't rotate the baby, that means my wife will have to have a C-section
