Spraying the humidor down can be dangerous as you can warp the cedar. Hopefully you are ok in this situation. If I were you, I would go ahead and load the cigars in without humidification until the rh drops into the mid to low 60's. Then add the humidification media of your choice and go from there. I have seasoned most of my humidors in 2-3 days.
The lid should loosen up when the wood drys just a bit.
