this is a very common issue with a first humidor. you buy it and you wanna stock that puppie up. slow down. take the time to season it right. there is a good amount of wood in there and it needs to be seasoned. this takes time. its worth the wait.
They are different. Boveda makes a humi-pack that is guaranteed to produce an environment of a specific rH, and you use that to calibrate your hygrometer. The salt test is easy and reliable.. just don't over-moisten the salt (your target is a damp salt solution)
I have also placed a shot glass full of distilled water inside my Humi and have not seen it's interior in a couple days and do not plan to for a couple more. /crosses fingers
check on the shot glass. you may need more water. the humi may have soaked it all up. make sure trhere is a hygromiter in there too.
