    What to do with my humidors

    Well now that my wineador is complete my whole collection fits in there with some room for growth. I now have three humidors that are not in use. One smaller one will go to my brother who is in need but the other two will be with me permanently as they were gifts from my wife and I might need them again someday. As for now I don't see using them for many many months so I'm not sure what to do with them. Do I try and keep them humidified or do I let them go dry and season them again if/when needed or possibly some other creative use that doesn't inhibit me using them for their intended purpose later on. Hmm just not sure.

    Pick one, the one with the most sentimental value to you, and use it to transfer the sticks from your winedor that you intend to smoke. The wineador is storage. The humidor is for the here and now.

    My 2 cents.
    Mr. Simpson, don't you worry. I saw an episode of Matlock in a bar last night. The sound was down, but I think I got the gist of it.

    I'd keep them humidified, and just split the sticks between them.

    Maybe one can be used for "sticks guests can choose from", for example.

    I would keep them humidified and like the other guys have said use them for soon to be smoked sticks or guest sticks. It will help to limit the times you have to open up the winedor.

    If they're empty throw a boveda in and fill the empty space with bubble wrap.
