Boveda For Seasoning Two-Way Humidity Control Packs 84% RH - Size 60

In this review of the Boveda For Seasoning 84% RH Size 60 12-pack, the bottom line is straightforward: this set is for anyone who needs a no-mess, precise way to season a new or dry wood humidifier box so it stops drawing moisture from stored items. The reviewer found these packets dramatically simplify the initial conditioning process for a Spanish cedar humidor by using two-way, saltwater-based humidity control to add the exact moisture the wood needs without soaking or altering the wood's shape. For humidors suffering from low RH or seasonal dryness, these seasoning packs are a practical, low-effort solution.

Key Features

• 84% RH seasoning: Restores moisture to cedar by filling the box environment with water vapor so wood stops robbing moisture from stored items.
• Size 60 capacity: Releases about 35 grams of moisture per pack, making it easy to calculate how many packs you need for a given humidor size.
• Individually wrapped: Each packet is wrapped for hygiene and convenience, and the outer clear plastic must be removed before use.
• No water or mess: The saltwater two-way system seasons wood without adding standing water or risking spills inside the box.
• Patented two-way control: Provides precise humidity control to reach and hold the target moisture during the 14-day seasoning period.
• Natural ingredients: Uses saltwater-based technology designed for gentle, consistent humidification that preserves wood integrity.

Who It's For

This 12-pack is aimed at owners of new or newly acquired Spanish cedar humidifier boxes who want a straightforward way to season a box up to roughly 300-count or to treat multiple smaller boxes at once. It is especially useful for people in dry climates or those who battle seasonal drops in relative humidity and want to protect flavor and aroma of stored items.

Those who should look elsewhere include users who already have a well-conditioned humidor and only need maintenance packs (72% RH maintenance packs are recommended after seasoning), or people who prefer refillable water-based humidifiers and do not want disposable seasoning packets.

Pros & Cons
