Hi everyone. I am hoping you can help me get my humidor under control and advise whether my sticks are ruined or not. I've attached several images showing whats going on. It's a Savoy box, I have 2 boveda 72% bags in it and a digital hygro reading 76 Degrees F and 72% humidity. The box...

Would someone mind telling me if this looks like mold or bloom? The stuff wiped off and looked like the original wrapper. It was rather sticky feeling too. Thanks.

Hello! I recently found a humidor in my grandparents house while cleaning it out. I think the last time the humidor was tendered to was well over a year ago. Maybe 2. There has to be over 100 cigars I have that look like the pictures here. 1. Is this mold or plume? I kind of doubt it would be...

Unfortunately, I have been away from my Tupidor since January 20th. The tupidor has not been opened since then. Has it been too long already or should I try to get someone to open it. I will not be home until May. I have about 50 sticks in there and they are fairly expensive. Thanks

Some people assume it's bloom when it's white... But some of these spots are raised slightly off the wrapper, like bumps. I can scratch them off with my fingernail. They only occur where the cigar was covered in a cedar sleeve.

Hello all, I have been smoking for about a year now. Finally decided to get a humidor about a week ago from a cigar website. It came and I seasoned it a few days ago. After calibrating a digital hygrometer that I bought for it I stuck the cigars that came with the humidor (24 in total) in to see...

So about a month or so ago I was messing around in my humi checking out sticks and I thought it would be a good time to take a good look at the green oasis foam and the CO 2. Much to my dismay I found a couple spots of white mold. I immediately threw the foam away, cleaned the unit with...

Hello everyone, Could someone tell me if the white stuff showing on this cigar good or bad? I have an Aristocrat humidor that can hold up to 700 or 800 cigars with set and forget humidification system. I am trying to maintain HR at %68 and %70 (bottom of the humidor is always %2 higher than the...

I already have humidor, plastic airtight one. But i still got problem about temperature as my country is 95++ almost all the time. My question is "Can i put my cigars in humidor and put it into fridge?" just to avoid hot weather and probability of mold infestation. Will there be any...

I recently (within 2 months) bought myself some SG Brown no.4 rope tobacco, it smelled great, cut some off to chew. Then later in the night I noticed a white powdery looking substance on the outside leaf of my rope. It was more significant at the one end, but I could see it here and there along...

Question: I have the crystal jar humidors for my 100 count humidor, my hygrometer is reading 76 I believe that is to high. How do I lower it? I have two jars in there if I take one out wouldn't that lower it to much?

I have a spare humidor that i noticed was showing close to 80% it had not been opened in prolly a month or so (it had no cigars in it). I opened it and noticed what looks like a white fuzz on two of the sides. I was just wondering if anybody could tell me best way to clean it out with out...

I recently had a minor outbreak in my coolidor (coolerdor?). I'd appreciate if someone would tell me whether the following is correct. Mainly, I don't know how easily mold transfers from item to item or place to place. I have a humidor (65%) and a coolidor (70%). One of three boxes of cigars in...

Have read places where it says it might make you sick, but have never heard of anyone before?

Went to a new cigar shop today and walked into the humidor and saw a ton of Padron's that looked like this as well as a few others. I took them out to him and said "I think you might have mold", he replied "No that is plume". He said the mold would smell. In his defense it was white, and wiped...

So I got out of work early today so decided to stop by the local "Tinder Box" shop. I haven't been there before since it's downtown and I live in the suburbs, but I work in the city so it was pretty close. Well I wander into the nice little walk in humidor and check out the stock. Nice...

I'm having a debate with the vender as to the cause of the white stuff here. I say looks like mold, they say "plume". Anybody able to positively ID this stuff?

Hello, I picked this up @ the local B&M yesterday and was wondering if this is mold or plume? I didn't even notice the fuzz until I got home. I know the pics arent the best but all input is welcomed.....:mrgreen:

Hello! I've done searches on how to clean and get rid of a small mold issue but this issue keeps creeping up. I have a beautiful humidor the is 16" tallx12"x12" and have several (6) drawers with a front door to open. Seems to seal great also. My problem is that every few months, I see mold...
