I store all my filament in ziplock bags with some 3a molecular sieve - even after 2 years in 45-65% humidity at 21C room I don't have to dry PETG.
I do about the same. Usually I'll throw the silica packets that come with the roll in my filament dryer and then in the bag.
Check silica packet effectiveness below 50% humidity... It's not great. Molecular sieve on the other hand has no problem getting humidity below 5%. I managed to buy a 10kg bucket of 3A sieve for about $120 and it's going to be enough for many years.
