Question cigars leafs staring to come off!

Hi,
On one or two of my cigars the leafs are starting to come off. What could be causing this? The humidity is 63% - 65% and the temp 71-74.

The cigars seem in good condition.They have been in my humi for about two weeks now.

Any suggestions pls?

It happens, but double check your hygrometers and make absolutely sure your readings are accurate.


Some cigars just flake no matter what. You can buy the sugar mix, I forget what it's called, to repair the damage, or you can just lick em down and smoke em soon.

Which cigars? Cameroon wrapped, perhaps? If so, cameroons need higher humidity because they are very thin and fragile.

It's called pectin and you'll find it in the baking aisle near the canning stuff.
