Left: I opened a sealed roll of a filament purchased in 2018 and I printed that rose

Right: I dried that filament in the creality dryer overnight and sent the print again

This pic was taken on 10th April. After drying the filament I put it back in storage and I forgot about it until it exploded today

    I live in an area that routinely has 70% humidity. My prints are consistently stringy, and I know it is because of the wet filament. I use an A1 Mini with AMS. Is there a solution, or am I doomed to stringy prints?

      Maybe an enclosure with inlet and outlet fans, and either a window AC unit or a dehumidifier dedicated to your printing room? I definitely recommend watching this video before investing in a dehumidifier, a lot of helpful information about how humidity works: https://youtu.be/j_QfX0SYCE8
