My local cigar shop told me to fill up the humidifier, put the humidifier and a glass of solution. Then wait to until the humidity level reaches about 65-70 degrees. The put the cigars in.

My hygrometer is showing 75/80 degrees in the humidor is that it properly seasoned now?
Sorry I meant humidity. I'm using an egg cup full of distilled water to the do the seasoning.
Thanks for the reply. The RH is 100 today I have taken the egg cup of solution out and put the beads in. Should I take the Humidifier out?
If you use too much water it can cause the spanish cedar liner to warp or grow mold. If you don't use something that is lint free, you can leave deposit/residue on the wood, which is also not good.
Remember - use the water sparingly, keep the wood clean and above all, don't be in too much of a hurry.
Patience is key. I have set up too many humidors in my time - I now just put a small saucer of distilled water inside and wait until it settles in. It takes a lot longer in the winter than it does in the summer.
Thing seem to be going from bad to worse- I managed to still some distilled water in the humidor

Thanks for all the replies:tu
I have lest the humidor open for about an hour and the humidity from about 70 to 62 quite quickly.
I will be ordering a Western Caliber III Digital Hygrometer this friday.
When I put the beads in the humidor, I took the Humidifier out. It's just got the beads in there.
