Choosing The Right Humidor For Your Cigars

Cigars are an investment and to protect them and store them correctly, you need the right humidor. Cigars need the right moisture conditions and temperature, which only a humidor can provide. Humidors come in different sizes and shapes and there are different things to consider when choosing the right one. 

The Right Size

When choosing the size, you should buy one that is bigger than the number of cigars you plan to store. It’s important to choose the right size because humidors need proper airflow in order to maintain the right climate for your cigars. If your humidor is overly populated then it will have an effect on the humidity and temperature, which can ruin your collection. One too big or too small will be hard to regulate. 

Think about the Cigars You Want to Store

One of the things to think about is the kinds of cigars you want to store. Many enthusiasts will collect different types to satisfy their smoking needs. Flavors range from mild to full-bodied. If the different cigars aren’t separate from each other then the flavor profile and aroma can be altered. You want to invest in a humidor that has compartments if you plan on storing different types of cigars in the same cabinet.

The Humidor Should Fit Your Environment

Humidors should complement your space. There are different categories to choose from, such as desktop, cabinet, or end-table options. There are ones available in different wood finishes, such as dark cherry and mahogany. Not only should a humidor be functional, but it can also serve as a piece of furniture so it should fit into the space you want. 

Think about Geographic Location

Location is an important factor that is often overlooked. If you live in a region that has moderate temperatures year-round then you won’t have many problems maintaining the right conditions. However, if you live in a location that has extremely hot summers and cold winters, they can impact the function. No matter your temperature, it should be addressed with the right humidification system. Once you have this in place you will need to monitor the moisture levels and temperature. 

Installation Space

Consider the amount of installation space your humidor will need. Depending on the storage capacity you want, you could get a desk cabinet or coffee table humidor. Electronically operated humidors will need to be plugged in so you need to have them located near an outlet. If you are traveling a lot then a portable humidor might be a better option for you.

Material and Quality Do Matter

The type of wood you pick for your humidor will matter. Many humidors are made from composite wood lined with a cedar veneer. Hardwood, especially if you can get solid cedar, is going to be the best. These ones are typically more expensive than ones made from composite woods. Solid cedar has an advantage because it absorbs moisture better and will help your cigars age. The exterior is important for aesthetic reasons. The exterior wood is usually a veneer. Be sure to pick a finish you like to look at. 

Make Sure It’s Well Sealed

The most important quality is the seal. This is where the lid and the box meet. A tight seal is needed to make sure that the inside is perfectly humidified and insulated. Cigars should be kept at 70 degrees Fahrenheit and with 70% relative humidity. The right humidor is going to be pointless if the seal is not good. 

Opt for a Built-In Thermometer and Hygrometer

Both of these accessories are going to be important since they can give clear indicators of the environment in real-time and make maintenance easier. 

Can You Store Your Cannabis in a Cigar Humidor?

Unfortunately, no. Cigar humidors are kept at too high humidity for marijuana, and your cannabis flower would likely get moldy. There are cannabis humidors specifically made for storing cannabis joints, cannabis flowers, and even cannabis cigars. These cannabis humidors are too dry to store your tobacco cigars in! Plus, cigar humidors have oils that impart flavor to the cigar that you wouldn’t want in your cannabis.

No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children No one is giving $2 w🌱🌱d gummies to children trick or treating on Halloween. Those reports you hear on the news simply aren’t true! ⁣
⁣
However, if you are attending a Halloween party for adults, ask if the candies, goodies, or drinks are special or infused! Edibles are more common at parties as an alternative to alcohol, especially in states where the plant has been legalized for both recreational & medical use.⁣
⁣
If you’re not used to consuming, try a small piece or half a piece, drink plenty of water, and make sure you have a safe place to sit if needed. And always call a rideshare aka Uber or Lyft home!⁣
⁣
Happy Halloween! 🎃💀👻⁣

Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄 ⁣ Which is you Happy National Mushr00m Day! 🍄
⁣
Which is your favorite Medicinal Mushr00m?⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It's more important than ever to take mushr00m supplements. Here's a little about how my favorite four mushr00ms work:⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Lion’s Mane Mushr00ms: great for improving focus and memory. Lion's mane promotes neurogenesis, or birth of new brain cells.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Cordyceps Mushr00ms: great for fighting fatigue and increasing length of your workouts. It's especially helpful for fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue patients.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Turkey Tail Mushr00ms: great for supporting your immune system. Clinical trials have looked at its role in fighting cancer.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Reishi Mushr00ms: what can't the queen of mushr00ms do? It fights cancer, boosts the immune system, improves mood, levels blood sugar, and promotes heart health.⁣⁣

9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a da 9/20 is National Magic Mushr00m Day. Why have a day to celebrate them?
Well in the United States & many parts of the world, they are still illegal, similar to another misunderstood therapeutic green plant we celebrate on 4/20. 
I've worked hard over the years in Denver & many other states to help decriminalize shr00ms and help people access information on how to use them for medical, spiritual, and stress relief purposes. I suggest following @decriminalizenature & @doubleblindmag for deeper info.
How are you celebrating today? ❤️ 🍄 ❤️

I’m not the only one, right? 😜 👩🏻‍🔬 💚
As a neuroscientist, I put out the first book on the potential causes of endocannabinoid deficiency and how to balance your ECS with or without plant medicine. 
From stress to medications to diet to your genes, there are so many ways your ECS go go haywire. The fact that so many people respond to plant medicine is likely because so many of us have severe imbalances.

At least in Nevada under the Board of Pharmacy... At least in Nevada under the Board of Pharmacy...
This is a huge victory, especially for POC in Nevada who were unfairly targeted by police and arrested due to this legal loophole despite legalization of this plant.
The ACLU sued the Nevada Pharmacy Board & won the case. An additional judgement on whether or not the board should regulate the plant at all any more is coming in future weeks.
Still waiting for @Potus to legalize on the Federal level. What are we waiting for?
