Dry the buds for a few days,wetter is always better.Then place in vac bags and sweat for 24 hrs at 104 f .Take out of the bags and dry off the excess moisture.Reseal and check after one week,then dry under a ceiling fan for several hrs,and reseal and repeat till desired moisture level.I like mine to be a beef jerky consistency .I would it keep it stored in a vac bag until use after a month or so.I keep mine sealed then cut off for daily use.If you keep the temps at desired level during the sweat thats critical.Glad your giving it a go.Peace please
