Then there's the really slow two week method... Calibrate your hygrometer (salt test). Charge the humidistat with propylene (sp?) glycol and distilled water 50/50. Keep an eye on the hygrometer about every day and check the humidistat about that often to see if it needs to be recharged with distilled water. For the first few days there'll be a lot of refilling. After a while it'll slow down a bit. After about two weeks of this, the humidor should've soaked up enough humidity to put in the stogies. So say magazines and the like...
I've only had the patience to do this, like, once. Like most people I've done the dish of water trick. It's quicker.
Maybe the manufacturer of your humidor has some advice?

another suggestion, start saving for an even bigger humi.

Oh, and no kidding about getting the bigger humidor! I never thought I'd outgrow my first 50-count. Now I've got a cooler and several smaller humidors.
Be
very careful!
