I seasoned a new humi threw in 2 HF 65% tubes and got a steady reading of 70%. I had to go out of town unexpectedly for a week so could not wait for it to settle down to 65%, so I tossed a recent online order of sticks that I received into the box. When I got home last night the reading was 56%! I recharged both tubes last night and this morning it was still at 56%. Now since I left outside temps had fallen by 30 degrees and humidity has broken. I checked my other humis and they had also fallen, but still within acceptable levels. So if I don't budge from 56% what should my next step be? Additional notes; I turned the heat on in the house for the first time last night. 150 count box only has about 25 sticks in it right now with another online order due in today. Do I throw those sticks in or wait till we get box stabilized?
