I put all reeds in a zip lock bag witha Boveda 69% humidity pack. After a few days it was reading 65% in the bag. So I put a wet sponge in a pill bottle with holes in cap and added to bag. Now it seems to maintain 70% humidity in the bag. I take a reed out, dip tip in water a minute or so and play. Then rinse it, let dry awhile and return it to bag. Seems to be working better than with only the bag. Saw this on a you tube video originally.

Boveda makes packs to maintain higher RH levels - 72%, 75% and 84%. Seems less clunky than the pill bottle.

ziplock bag and a boveda pack was my go to for a few months. Works well, dirt cheap.

I wasn't sure just which to try but maybe I will try a higher one. Seems to give a higher more constant humidity than without.

I use the Boveda 72 percent packages and they seem to be working very well.
