I also highly recommend getting these boveda packs I mentioned earlier and adding one to every eighth you buy. Weigh it before and after the packs been in for a bit (anywhere from a couple hours to a couple days) and you may be surprised to see how much weight you get back (not to mention flavor and enjoyment): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XB26Q8N?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
They're hydration packs you can get on Amazon!
You place them in a jar with your weed and it helps them to stay at the perfect moisture level. Prevents a harsh smoke and makes it burn slower.
I get them off Amazon, but they're about $20 for a ten pack. I usually get the 4-gram 62% packs (which can easily humidify up to a half oz).
You can also rehydrate your weed by putting it in a sealed jar with a small wad of wet paper towel for about 20 minutes, but it leaves a weird taste if you use tap water. Might work better if you use distilled water in that scenario.
I had to look up what Grove packs are. They look pretty fancy and seem to control humidity for you the same way as humidity packs.
This is what I use. They are two way, so they will absorb/give off humidity to keep it at the right amount. Couple humidity packs in Mason jars is all I do. I keep a humidity monitor in one to make sure the humidity doesn't get too high or too low.

I can't say 100% for sure if your bags are the same or if using the humidity packs would make a difference. From my little bit of reading, I don't think the humidity packs would change anything.
The humidity packs are reusable BTW. They are not cheap but since they are two way and obsorb humidity, you can rehydrate them.
>Hydration pack? What's that and please point me in the right direction.
They're two-way humidity control so they add or remove moisture to keep your herb at the perfect humidity. The two brands I usually see are Boveda and Boost. You want to look for 62% RH for cannabis (the other RHs work better for things like tobacco, etc.). Here's an example on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06XB26Q8N?ref\_=cm\_sw\_r\_cp\_ud\_dp\_ABNHAP557KKFG3BKBF2W
Buy some boveda two-way 62% humidity packs. If above 62% humidity or below 62%, the pack will bring it back.
Don't you folks know about Boveda freshness packs??? https://smile.amazon.com/Boveda-Percent-2-Way-Humidity-Control/dp/B06XB26Q8N/ref=sr_1_2?crid=1Y95WS6XA4JC2&dchild=1&keywords=marijuana+freshness+packs&qid=1598389387&sprefix=marijuana+free%2Caps%2C212&sr=8-2
These are awesome - I put them in my buds after harvest, and in my pre-ground mix that I keep in a wide-mouth Ball jar.
Try Boveda humidification packs and you’ll never have to leave your bud in the hot hot heat ever again.

I got mine at Amazon... Smallest sized (4 gram, 2"x2" packet ea) 62% fits a 125 ml mason jar no problem.
You want a Boveda 62%:
If the humidity is too high (which can cause mold) it absorbs the moisture. If it's too low, it releases moisture. They work great.
Put one in each jar and the weed won't get dry or moldy.
You want a Boveda 62:
It adds moisture if the weed is dry, and sucks it up if it gets too moist - holds things right at 62%, which is perfect for weed.
Put a pack in with your stash, give it a couple days to equalize, and it'll be nice.
I hung dry by the limbs only removing larger leaves. Then I dry trimmed.
Stuffed them all into Mason jars with a Boveda 62 pack and didn't look back. The packs keep the humidity at 62% which is perfect for curing.
if you have time you could cancel your order on the OCS store and just order them off amazon: 4 gram 62%, 8 gram 58%
Add a Boveda packet to the container, your flower will become nice and fresh within 24h!

Nice collection. Get some humidity packs to keep those buds fresh. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XB26Q8N/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
S&B Capsul Caddy: 3D-printed capsul holder that fits inside of a stash jar. It holds 24 caps. Caps load at ~.15g each, so 3.6g or close enought to an 1/8th. This is really what makes the caps a time saver and convenience - being able to 'meal prep' your weed.
Boveda 62% Packs: The 4g packs fit snugly inside the capsul caddy I use. Helps keep all that ground up herb from drying out. Which is great since I am a slow user.
Loading & Filling Set: I love the caps because I always have one ready to vape. When its time to load them, this is awesome. Fills 40 at once - but I just cover 16 holes to only fill the 24 if I'm prepping just an 8th I got. very useful.
Waterpipe Attachment: The Mighty is fantastic on its own; however, using it with a water pipe takes it to a different level. This attachment is great. If you don't like holding your Mighty upside down, you could also just attach a whip off the mouthpiece or adapter to your waterpipe. Look at homebrewing stores for food grade plastic tubing for cheap if you prefer a whip style attachment.
Glass Mouthpiece: Ok, maybe most wont consider it 'essential', but I prefer the feel of the glass mouth pieces. Really though, it is easier to fit a q-tip through when I clean (which I'll do after every use)
Mighty Stand: Nice 3D printed stand that snaps right onto the Mighty with cut outs for the pick and charging port. I haven't taken it off since I put it on.
Rest of my gear is just jars and cleaning stuff. Everclear with q-tips helps keep everything clean.

I have an ultrasonic humidifier from amazon. It holds 4-6 liters and doesn't produce much heat or noise. You can set a humidity target and it will turn on and off as needed. It is something similar to this https://www.amazon.com/LEVOIT-Humidifiers-Ultrasonic-Humidifier-Whisper-Quiet/dp/B01MYGNGKK/ref=sr_1_8?dchild=1&keywords=vivosun+humidifier&qid=1626876765&sr=8-8
What type of exhaust do you have for the tent? I'm also growing in a 4x2 and I found I needed a 4" exhaust fan with an adjustable dial otherwise the fan was too powerful and I was just sucking all the humidity out.
I'm really sensitive to dry air during the winter, so we've gone through a number of humidifiers. This is the one we currently have, and it is great. I have also noticed that it helps with my skin care routine as well as not having a sore throat when I wake up.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01MYGNGKK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I bought this - Humidifer - to deal with how dry my apartment was getting.
So far, it's working well for me!
Also yes, I've been putting tap water in there and haven't really noticed a difference. When I lived in Springfield, my parents put tap water in their humidifier as well, and we never had an issue.
Oh I actually have one of theirs! This one :
It doesn’t seem to work very well. Plus the fog just goes straight down to the floor and makes the floor wet unless I put my ceiling fan on high.
I recently bought this 'Levoit' and it's total shit. The build quality is just okay and the tank feels like it's held together with glue. I've had it on full-blast for days and it barely hovers about 30% humidity. Beware the bullshit 'amazon's choice' is my advice.
This one doesn't shoot straight up but has a part you can turn to adjust direction. We have one in our bedroom and the nursery. Super easy to clean and holds a large amount of water. Also, its pretty kid friendly, my 11mo old can use it to stand himself up and it doesnt tip or shift even when empty.

Levoit 6L link here
Not GREAT at perfect humidity (usually underestimates) but because it does auto detect, you only have to fill it up once a week.
Also VERY clean, if you keep the cool mist I’ve found you only have to clean it every 2 months, with warm mist it’s usually every month.
A little expensive, but less expensive than replacing a $30 humidifier every year because there’s mildew in places you can’t reach.
I recently purchased multiple humidifiers + a hygrometer to measure humidity and keep it between 50-55% in the house. Then I use saline nose spray for my sinuses and Vaseline in my nostrils. The Vaseline helps a lot, but nothing helps as much as the humidifiers. Before I got them, I found out the avg humidity in the house was around 25% because of our gas fireplaces and central heat. I used to live in an appt with a steam radiator and never had dry nose issues, so I kinda put 2 and 2 together and realized what the change was.
Just that simple change of adding moisture to the air makes a huge difference!! My skin looks WAY better and my eyes are a tiny bit better. This is one of the humidifiers I have that works really well and you can get hygrometers on Amazon for like $10.
Is your Levoit an ultrasonic or evaporative? If it's ultrasonic, have you had to deal with white dust? The Levoit LV600HH is easily the humidifier I'm the most interested in, but the white dust from my current ultrasonic humidifier is a big problem for me right now.
I got the Levoit ultrasonic humidifier because it seemed so popular, and now I see why. It’s awesome. Here’s the link on Amazon

Using this in a 5'x5'x8' tent (6" ventilation, HLG-600) and it works very well. Just popped it in the other day on a new grow (seedlings), set the thermostat to 60%, adjusted the mist level to 3 (default is 2), and it holds the RH between 50%-65%. I figure I will be able to turn the mist level down once the plants are rolling due to transpiration increasing the humidity level.
Perhaps this one, as OP stated...
> between 70 and 100 bucks
Sounds like the bridge is too low. The C string should be @8.5mm above the end of the fingerboard This time of year (the winter heating season) the cello shrinks so the bridge goes down. It is a good idea to keep the cello in a humidified environment and have a calibrated hygrometer to keep track of the humidity. Probably won’t change this, but it will protect your cello and make it happier. Here is an article on the topic. I have his hygrometer. BTW, most major violin dealers in NYC keep the humidity at 40% so that instrument don;t experience shock when they are taken out of the shop.

I've had this onethis one for a few years. Big tank, good electronic controls.
Definitely this one: https://www.amazon.com/LEVOIT-Humidifiers-Ultrasonic-Humidifier-Whisper-Quiet/dp/B01MYGNGKK/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=levoit+lv600hh&qid=1621277771&sr=8-2
It's so easy to clean! There's a reason most plant people end up with this model.
This is a favorite among plant people
I bought this one too, which has some qualities I love (mist shoots up to my highest plant shelves, automatic setting and remote, a slot for essential oil, and overall looks sleek) BUT it is so awkward to fill the tank and it's a pain in the ass to clean, so I can't recommend it!
How often you'll have to clean it depends on your environment, your water, and the unit itself. Weekly is fine for all of mine though.
Oh I have this tiny one for my prop shelf and it's great. Low output but it's good enough for that purpose. It might be fine if you only need it for one orchid.
If you have the money, this has the option to automatically humidify your space when it detects low humidity. It also has a dual nozzle so you can have one pointed at a specific plant who has high humidity needs and the other nozzle to humidify the rest of the space.
I currently have this one. It's only a cool humidifier and doesn't have the the fancy settings as the previous one, but it's easy to fill, easy to use and it gets the job done. My apartment has very dry air so I just set the humidifier on low for the whole day.
You can also make a humidifier tray with a small tray and a bag of pebbles you can get from the dollar store. Fill the tray with pebbles and then fill it with just enough water that it doesn't go above the rocks. Place the plant on top of the pebbles and the water will naturally evaporate and humidify your plant.
A temporary fix I did when I noticed one of plants was starting to wrinkle and crack from the dry air in my apartment (and my humidifier wasn't coming in for another week) was placing it on top of a humidifier tray and wrap the whole thing, plant and tray, in a plastic bag. The plant creates it's own oxygen and carbon dioxide so you don't have to worry about suffocating it. Also, because the humidity keeps the soil moist you don't have to water as often. Just keep it away from direct sunlight or else your plant will cook like steaming vegetables. Monitor to make sure no mold or fungus are growing.
Also bonus, I found Millipedes at the bottom of the bag, so not only did wrapping my plant kept the humidity up, but also quarantined the pest infestation from my other plants.

Also yes, I've been putting tap water in there and haven't really noticed a difference. When I lived in Springfield, my parents put tap water in their humidifier as well, and we never had an issue.
Oh I actually have one of theirs! This one :
It doesn’t seem to work very well. Plus the fog just goes straight down to the floor and makes the floor wet unless I put my ceiling fan on high.
I recently bought this 'Levoit' and it's total shit. The build quality is just okay and the tank feels like it's held together with glue. I've had it on full-blast for days and it barely hovers about 30% humidity. Beware the bullshit 'amazon's choice' is my advice.
This one doesn't shoot straight up but has a part you can turn to adjust direction. We have one in our bedroom and the nursery. Super easy to clean and holds a large amount of water. Also, its pretty kid friendly, my 11mo old can use it to stand himself up and it doesnt tip or shift even when empty.

Not GREAT at perfect humidity (usually underestimates) but because it does auto detect, you only have to fill it up once a week.
Also VERY clean, if you keep the cool mist I’ve found you only have to clean it every 2 months, with warm mist it’s usually every month.
A little expensive, but less expensive than replacing a $30 humidifier every year because there’s mildew in places you can’t reach.
I recently purchased multiple humidifiers + a hygrometer to measure humidity and keep it between 50-55% in the house. Then I use saline nose spray for my sinuses and Vaseline in my nostrils. The Vaseline helps a lot, but nothing helps as much as the humidifiers. Before I got them, I found out the avg humidity in the house was around 25% because of our gas fireplaces and central heat. I used to live in an appt with a steam radiator and never had dry nose issues, so I kinda put 2 and 2 together and realized what the change was.
Just that simple change of adding moisture to the air makes a huge difference!! My skin looks WAY better and my eyes are a tiny bit better. This is one of the humidifiers I have that works really well and you can get hygrometers on Amazon for like $10.
Is your Levoit an ultrasonic or evaporative? If it's ultrasonic, have you had to deal with white dust? The Levoit LV600HH is easily the humidifier I'm the most interested in, but the white dust from my current ultrasonic humidifier is a big problem for me right now.
I got the Levoit ultrasonic humidifier because it seemed so popular, and now I see why. It’s awesome. Here’s the link on Amazon

Using this in a 5'x5'x8' tent (6" ventilation, HLG-600) and it works very well. Just popped it in the other day on a new grow (seedlings), set the thermostat to 60%, adjusted the mist level to 3 (default is 2), and it holds the RH between 50%-65%. I figure I will be able to turn the mist level down once the plants are rolling due to transpiration increasing the humidity level.
Perhaps this one, as OP stated...

Sounds like the bridge is too low. The C string should be @8.5mm above the end of the fingerboard This time of year (the winter heating season) the cello shrinks so the bridge goes down. It is a good idea to keep the cello in a humidified environment and have a calibrated hygrometer to keep track of the humidity. Probably won’t change this, but it will protect your cello and make it happier. Here is an article on the topic. I have his hygrometer. BTW, most major violin dealers in NYC keep the humidity at 40% so that instrument don;t experience shock when they are taken out of the shop.

I've had this onethis one for a few years. Big tank, good electronic controls.
Definitely this one: https://www.amazon.com/LEVOIT-Humidifiers-Ultrasonic-Humidifier-Whisper-Quiet/dp/B01MYGNGKK/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=levoit+lv600hh&qid=1621277771&sr=8-2
It's so easy to clean! There's a reason most plant people end up with this model.
This is a favorite among plant people
I bought this one too, which has some qualities I love (mist shoots up to my highest plant shelves, automatic setting and remote, a slot for essential oil, and overall looks sleek) BUT it is so awkward to fill the tank and it's a pain in the ass to clean, so I can't recommend it!
How often you'll have to clean it depends on your environment, your water, and the unit itself. Weekly is fine for all of mine though.
Oh I have this tiny one for my prop shelf and it's great. Low output but it's good enough for that purpose. It might be fine if you only need it for one orchid.
If you have the money, this has the option to automatically humidify your space when it detects low humidity. It also has a dual nozzle so you can have one pointed at a specific plant who has high humidity needs and the other nozzle to humidify the rest of the space.
I currently have this one. It's only a cool humidifier and doesn't have the the fancy settings as the previous one, but it's easy to fill, easy to use and it gets the job done. My apartment has very dry air so I just set the humidifier on low for the whole day.
You can also make a humidifier tray with a small tray and a bag of pebbles you can get from the dollar store. Fill the tray with pebbles and then fill it with just enough water that it doesn't go above the rocks. Place the plant on top of the pebbles and the water will naturally evaporate and humidify your plant.
A temporary fix I did when I noticed one of plants was starting to wrinkle and crack from the dry air in my apartment (and my humidifier wasn't coming in for another week) was placing it on top of a humidifier tray and wrap the whole thing, plant and tray, in a plastic bag. The plant creates it's own oxygen and carbon dioxide so you don't have to worry about suffocating it. Also, because the humidity keeps the soil moist you don't have to water as often. Just keep it away from direct sunlight or else your plant will cook like steaming vegetables. Monitor to make sure no mold or fungus are growing.
Also bonus, I found Millipedes at the bottom of the bag, so not only did wrapping my plant kept the humidity up, but also quarantined the pest infestation from my other plants.

This is the first one I've owned so I'm no expert but I did some research before choosing this one and iI think it's great!

Also how difficult is it to clean I’m on the fence between the 4l cool mist or the hot/cool 6l. This is the one you have right? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MYGNGKK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glc_fabc_o0u6Fb2ZPG4J5
Looks like this one i just got it and the thing is diesel
