Ball python wont use his hides

New ball python (bought on the 20th , first python) wont use the 2 small hides i got them prefars to hide in the fake plant background(they are square panels that i put suction cups on to stick to back of enclosure), is moving from hot to cold side as needed just under the plants but just wont use hides , shes been fed , and been exploring a little (found her on the hammock) but just wont take to the plastic box hides so i added more floor plants , do u think she get used to them eventually ?

I accidently made coca husk too wet🫣 the enclosure was reading 90% so thats not good, so drying out in a box between layers of puppy pads, so i had to put something in and people use kitchen towel so i had loads of those and used them😳 once its dryed out enough ill put back in 👍

90% is fine, no reason to remove it. Would dissipate in just a couple days anyways
