Is it normal to drop that much.

I guess if two weeks isnt long enough, someone should change the sticky on seasoning humis.
The sticky is fine, you just didn't follow it's directions. Seasoning takes patience. You are just way to eager to use your humidor. I hope you get your moneys worth with the new humidor, but you will have the exact same problems if you throw your cigars in after only 4 days of seasoning.

Its been seasoning for about 4 days or so and the RH is at 65 according to the hygrometer.

Can I throw my beads in and cigars and call it good?
Yes a BOTL gave some poor advice telling you you should do this. But I am pretty sure you had heard from many of us 2 weeks minimum before your humidor even arrived..
