Puff really soft and slow at first, moreso than normal, and maybe leave the stick out for a bit before you smoke it. Not too long. 20 minutes or so. That's what I do when it's super hot outside, and it's seemed to help. I'm no expert though, your mileage may vary.
It's hot and humid, more so than when I had the other one. I'll see how the next one goes.
Thanks!
Down here in Florida, that's my problem as well; my cigars are at 65%/73F in the humi, but when I step outside into 85% humidity and 85F heat, the wrapper sometimes cracks.

Have you found leaving the stick out in the environment for a half hour or so helps? I live on an island and the Humidity os always the issue. Leaving it out of the humi for a half hour before I light it seems to help. It seems the wrapper can absorb a little of the excess humidity without the RH of the filler getting too high. So it burns like it should, but the wrapper is a little more pliable, so it doesn't split, at least not as often.
Question for the guys that live in areas with too much humidity...what products seem to work best to keep your rh below 70%? I live in hawaii and sometimes my small humidor will crank itself to 75 to 78%. I usually don't have this problem with my coolidor or my 300 count humi but I think the amount of space plays a factor in keeping those properly humidified.

BEADS. I use two pounds in my coolerdor and it keeps pretty stable between 63 - 67%

Never heard of doing that. I'll try it next time, Thanks!
