It's a good idea. Sometimes though, you can get away with cutting it short. If the humidity plummets drastically when you add cigars and the humidifier, then you cut it too short and should consider taking your cigars back out and going back to whatever method you were using to season.

Then you're fine.

If you are actively using the humidor, never. If you stop using it and remove the humidification device(s), let it sit for a month or so, then it's probably a good idea to re-season. It might also season faster the second time around because the wood might not be as dry as it was the first time.
