Leaf Storage Solution

[adamziegler]

I have started to accumulate both home grown and online purchased leaf that has been stored in various plastic bags in cardboard boxes in the most stable climate my house has to offer... which is not very stable. I can go from mold range to desert dry. Yesterday I learned about storage totes with a gasket. I found the sizes I wanted at a local big box store, and added some cheap humidity meters. If you have a Menards in your region they carry a brand that I like better than what is on amazon. I put a large 2-way humidifier pack in one, and a home made humidifier in the other, and they are certainly keeping things better than ambient.

I don't know that I would recommend the homemade humidifier without some sort of 2-way control like the humidifier packs offer. But I am hopeful to keep leaf in better shape moving forward.
