liger930 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Hello everyone, Im local to Southern California. A brief history of how I ended up here. I had the luxury of enjoying many CC's abroad while in Asia several years ago. Upon returning I decided to kick the cigarette habit and explore the cigar hobby further. In my first season, I left an oversaturated foam humidifier unattended in a tabletop humidor during the summer. Hah! Mold to the max. I threw out the humidor, read up on mold 101, and took another stab at it. Season 2 was off to a great start. I successfully maintained ideal rh all season long. Then we had temperature spike one spring weekend, I believe it was 80F all weekend. On Monday I decided it was time to check up on humidor. Could have sworn a colony of lice moved in. Hah! Not lice, just cigar beetles. Everywhere. Read up on cigar bettle 101, froze everything, and took another stab at it. I am now in my third season, and the future is looking bright. The winedor is seasoned right, collection is growing, and I have found the FOH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tan1801 Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Welcome and good luck on season three . There is a wealth of knowledge on this forum (and the wider net) to tap into. Out of curiosity when you got cigar beetles, were your cigars cuban, non-cuban or a mix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

liger930 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Share Posted February 20, 2014 thank you everyone for the warm welcome.. very happy to be here. mftan: as for the beetles i believe they were CC's...from another collector's humidor. at the time didnt know what i had, they were just free sticks so i took em in. i was upset about the outbreak, but now i smile when i say...to date they have been the most luxurious cigars to grace my pallete.
