I always kept my reeds in a air tight plastic bag with some type of commerical humidifier in it. Rico makes some good ones. Before those were available I'd keep somelthing that kept humidity in it but not so much to make the reeds moldy. I would NEVER let my reeds sit out in the dry air. I had a humidifier in my studio and home and when on the job I would choose my reed and immediately put the others back into my sealed bag. The worst thing for a reed in my opinion is allowing a reed to go from extreme wet to dry or to sit out in the dry air. That's one of the reasons I explain in my website reed pages never to actually soak a reed, just to wet the vamp portion for a few seconds and then flatten the tip if it's wavy. I'd just press the tip on the flat surface of my mouthpiece with my thump for a few seconds.
