Re: Wavy Reed Tip

I used to use the Boveda packs but found longevity of my reeds was in question. I am not certain about it, I could be imagining it, however my reeds do seem to last longer with a simple sponge alongside in storage.

Issue with the sponge (a thin 1" square piece I cut to size) is that you have to watch the humidity level carefully. In my climate I don't seem to need any extra humidity in summer, however it is a must in winter.

I used to live in CO and before that UT, and Boveda packs were a life saver! At this point however I would still rather use a small sponge and monitor carefully.

I never have issues with wavy tips.
