Seasoning could take a week or it could take a month... it depends on how dry the Spanish cedar inside is. When the hygro reads 65% or above for a few days in a row you should be good.

ps. you might consider getting some 65% humidity beads. I find that my cigars smoke better at 65, than at 70, but to each his own
Only thing I do different is use a fresh new clean sponge rather than the papertowel. Shilala Beads
