Ideal Humidity

[sticksnstones]

I salt-tested the hygrometer on my main desktop humidor and discovered that my cigars were at about 61%. I'm wondering what folks think is the ideal humidity and whether I'm pushing it with a reading that low?
Also, is it better to keep it at a constant level, even low, rather than raise it to, say 65-67%? Thanks.

You may be best to search this site and dig around. The answer may be here already!

Ah, yes. Just discovered the Humidor category and some helpful threads.

Sorry for the trouble, folks.
