Hello jglopez,
This information can often be obtained from suppliers or online/published sources. For example, one our capsule suppliers recommend a relative humidity range of 35-65%. One of our suppliers of ingredients and a similar website had recommended a maximum relative humidity of 55%.
Herbal Drugs and Phytopharmaceuticals: A Handbook for Practice on a Scientific Basis, 2nd Ed., Wichtl, M., CRC, 1994; p 28 recommends a maximum humidity of 60%. For spices I think they could be similar.
Therefore, I would recommend checking with your suppliers and online/published sources that are relevant to the dried foods that you are storing.
