So, i recently switched over to kitty litter.. and i guess the little tray i had it in was a little too high. It was, in theory, not humidifying the bottom tray of my 3 drawer humi and spreading upwards from there, but in fact only going directly up to my little stack of cubans. The top drawer remained about 64-65 while the middle drawer was about 68, the bottom was 65 also.
Because of this, i decided to switch around my humi and move the cubans to the top and leave more NC in the middle, and reduce the humidity a tad so i could have my cubans sitting at 61-63%, and the resdt 65 or so.
Now, my hygros work fine. i have two in there, both are within 1% and i test them regularly vs other hygros and each other.
The problem is, i believe how my air flow was messed up, all the humidity went to my cohibas and then to everything else. so the cohibas were probably above 70 easily.
:brick:
luckily, only 2 are moldy, but both of my bigger ones (i have about 6 total, never smoked one yet)
i also have a dusty (sorta moldy, was next to it.. came off with a single wipe of a cloth.. should i worry about it?) joya de nigaragua (pictured)
heres the pics.
I'm thinking i could use them for a little test... wipe them off and freeze them for a while, and see if they still have mold.
Should i worry about the sticks that were sitting next to these other than wiping them off? its mostly CC trinidads and cohibas that were around these two (they were on the bottom of a 3 deep stack)

edit: the first and second cap pics are the two diff sticks, i thinkt he first may be salvageable, but the second actually has a lot of mold. the first is "it may be plume it may be mold" type of mold, but its def mold. lol
