HELP! Did My Shisha Go Bad

[Sonthert]

Everything is OK, as we discussed, Amichai and I,1. The effect on the flavor is from the drastic increase in temperature in GA.2. His order on Hookah Company was delayed due to the fact they were out of watermelon (some joker ordered 4 kilos of it or something...thanks, Joker!) and by the time they notified me and I delivered more watermelon, they had a run on blackthorn, so thats backordered now.   a. I talked to George and I resolved the problem, the order is being shipped 2 day , except for the blackthorn, which will be shipped when I deliver it.   b. Amichai is receiving a coupon for his next order from Hookah Company.

I just acclimated my tobacco for 6 hours.  Still the same problem.  I guess I can leave it out overnight.  I am not sure what that is going to do but I am willing to try it.--Amichai Israeli

Imagine a dog chasing a car. The dog is the tobacco and the car is the weather. The dog runs after the car, it moves slowly, so the dog keeps up. If the car speeds away, the dog follows it, the only way the dog will catch up is if the car stops, it slows down to below the dogs speed or the car turns around and comes back. Sometimes weather patterns will "see-saw" back and forth speeding from one extreme to the other for awhile with the tobacco bouncing back and forth trying to keep up. Acclimating tobacco allows the dog to run faster. Sealed up, the tobacco, means the dog can only move very slowly. When weather patterns start to change drastically over a week, that car speeds away from the dog for an entire week. Sometimes you'll smoke and have a good month and a half of smoking...sometimes you'll have a bad week a good day and another bad week. Its the weather...its hard to get a hold of. Does that make it slightly less abstract and easier to imagine?

Yes that makes sense, but I left my tobacco outisde with no top on (open) for 15 hours.  Is there a point when it is just too humid to be able to smoke shisha tobacco.  Also just tried some of the tobacco that came in today, same thing, no taste.  Acclimating it now so hopefully it will work tonight.Here are the stats in ATL if that helps:Humidity:

My theroies have evolved. Originally, I used to think there was weatherthat it couldn't get accustomed to. Now I don't believe that. The problem is, if the weather is getting warmer and warmer and more and more humid for three or four days straight, the car is outrunning the dog. Then the dog has a long way to run to cath up...it WILL improve, I promise.

Would you consider it beneficial to store the tobacco in an air conditioned environment? Assuming that that's where it'll be smoked, that is...

[Sonthert]

Yeah, if you are smoking it in an air conditioned room, the air tends to be different, so it should be stored in a similar humidity to where you smoke.
