Will this keep my prized cigars fresh?

Okay, I just brought three cohiba siglo II's for £60. Since I don't have a humidor anymore (old one thrown from window) I need to keep them fresh. I have put them in a small, air-tight container with a small amount of humi soloution.
I'm going to smoke them all within the next three weeks or so.Will my makeshift humidor keep them from going dry?

They are in tubes by the way.

Cheers

I have put a bit of cedar in that I got out of an old tubo.

For 3 weeks they would probably be fine with no humidification at all in an airtight container.

Re: Will this keep my prized cigars fresh?

I once had a couple of Upmann tubos on my dresser for two months, and they were fine. The hard part is resisting the temptation to open them and inhale the glorious aromas.
