I understand that after harvest through the curing stages the idea is to get rid of moisture and humidity is not ideal, but once you have finished the cure and are going to have stored for a few months what would the 'ideal' environment?
I really like my bud to be 'fresh' when consumed and hate to see good bud go dry, yes it still smokes and if it was good before, it's still good, but fresh bud always seems to be tastier. But anytime i have tried to put a drop of water in my storage container or something along those lines I run into mold potential and that sucks. I have heard recently having orange or lemon rind may help and at the same time give a nice aroma at the same time but, do I really want a taste strain to pick up another taste? and I would still have issues with mold from the rind, right?
I store usually in prescription containers (love prop 215) but recently got a large glass 'canning' jar. After a while (7-10 days) in the pill containers it dries up. I was thinking of getting a humidor, would this help keep the 'shelf life' of my fav's up to snuff and nice and spongy longer without the risk of mold?
I guess this was a really long winded way of asking if a Humidor is a good idea for storage?
BTW - this is my fist post, I hope I posted this in the right area. I have gotten a lot out of this site in just the short period I have been viewing, thanks for the info
