DampRid Humidity
Default DampRid Humidity

I am trying to make a Calcium Chloride Saturated Solution (using DampRid), to get 30% RH for storing orchid seed.

When I mix with water, the Calcium Chloride seems to form a solid block, and humidity drops to 10%.


Does anyone have experience making a Saturated CaCl solution for constant humidity? How did you mix the solution, to prevent it from forming a solid crystal block?

Make life easy on yourself. Bovedainc.com sells humidity control packets that fix the RH. 32% is the lowest, but that'll work fine.
