Here's a good compromise. Get about 5 gallons of CVS distilled water, fill up your bathtub with it, and then chuck your trays in there. Keep them in there until the wood becomes soft to touch. Pat dry and I guarantee that they will be, "saturated."

Humidity dropped to the low 50's for a few days, then climbed to 80% and stayed there for a week, whole process was about 12 days. The wood had a difference I could feel, I was actually surprised. That was just my experience, but the humidity the shelves will absorb has to come from somewhere.
