They rarely seem to crack more while smoking, so I can't see rh being the cause

I had made some assumptions from that first post and did not realize it was happening in the humidor. Tell us about your humidor. Is it wood box, wineador, tupperdore. How full do you keep it. What kind of humidification device do you use. Do you rotate your cigars in the humidor. A lower temp would not hurt. You only need the temp high enough to hold your preferred RH. Hot and humid will age cigars while a lower temp will slow down the process. I will have to check when I get home but I think I have some cigars that look rough from just sitting in the humidor. They tended to be in a humidor that was overall warmer and more humid. Then I have some in an identical humidor that tended to be stored in a cooler, drier humidor and that are older and look less rough.
