How do I know which Boveda pack to use?
You choose what relative humidity (RH) you need based on the product you’re protecting. All Boveda are accurate to +/- 1\% of the RH printed on the pack in an airtight environment. For cannabis and hemp: Choose 58\% RH or 62\% RH. You can’t go wrong with either RH, it depends on your personal preference.

Do Boveda packs absorb humidity?
For instance, you can get Boveda packs which are rated for 72\% humidity. Therefore, if the humidity inside of a humidor goes below 72\%, the Boveda pack will release moisture into the humidor, and if the humidity goes above 72\%, the Boveda pack will absorb moisture.
Should you buy a boveda 58 OR 62\% humidor?
The same can be said for the Boveda 62. Regarding maintaining optimal relative humidity for cannabis, you can go with either option in the Boveda 58 vs. 62 debate. If you are storing blunts in your humidor as well, go with the 62\%, although you still might want to upgrade.

What size Boveda should I get?
Try starting off with a Boveda 62, then a Boveda 65, and even a Boveda 69 before working your way to a Boveda 72. If you are using a wooden humidor, containers exchange moisture with the relative humidity inside of them. Therefore, the 72 helps draw out extra moisture to keep the relative humidity in the high 60’s.
