Just set up my very ghetto humidor, got some questions

[Caferacer]

Oh yea, with my fresh order of an afuente sampler and my petite coronas, I went and grabbed one of my old glass tupperwares. Put the drymistat in the middle with my cigars around it, and a piece of cedar . Now, for a few newbie questions. Actually only one. Being this is glass, how do I go about preventing mold on my brand new cigars?

Gotta say I like this humidor thing. I go to grab a stick and I am hit with that nice aroma of tobacco waiting to be smoked

how do I go about preventing mold on my brand new cigars?

I believe temps and RH 70 and below.
It's a freekin' thrill!

Yup,

Keep the temps below 70. Keep the humidity between 65-70%. Burp the container every few days if you don't smoke.

Keep in mind that a sealed Tupperware will be almost completely airtight so it will take very little water to maintain humidity.

My first humidor ever was a snap top plastic container. Ahhh, memories.

make sure you use DISTILLED water only.
i have a nice size tupperdore for my non premiums. works like a charm. i velcroed a few box covers on the inside and it works like a charm.
