I've done it by filling a gallon ziploc half full of buds, laid on it's side. Then I put a few drops near the top of the bag so that it doesn't touch the bag, and fill the bag with air so that there is a little puddle of terpenes sitting next to, but not touching, a pile of weed. Let it sit at ~90°F for a few hours, mixing it every once in a while without letting anything directly touch the puddle. The terpenes will evaporate and recondensethemselves throughout the buds. Make sure to cool it down before opening the bag or you'll lose a lot of your terpenes as a vapor. I'm sure there are better methods, this is just what worked for me. You could try a tiny perfume atomizer, which makes tiny picoliter sized droplets, but you might want to wait til you're up in the 10mL terpene range. 1mL of pure terpenes can flavor up anywhere from 10 to 400g of flowers, giving you somewhere between 0.25 and 10% terpenes. Good traditionally dried and cured bud usually contains less than 1.5% terpenes. Much more than that and it can be overpowering. With concentrates, people often make their solution up to 50% terpenes to make it more viscous but that's way too much, IMO and makes it taste like perfume. There are also nearly flavorless terpenes, such as those sold by TrueTerpenes, which you can mix with your flavored terpenes to get the viscosity you want for pen cartridges without having to use glycol and without overdoing the flavor.

Some people will always do unscrupulous things. But I wouldn't mind giving all small bag out my personal stash a little spritz just for some variety, come summertime and we're down to small buds that still have plenty of cannabinoids but have just lost the high notes of their flavor.

Wow THX for ur detailed infos, but one question: at 90f degrees does all terpenes evaporate? I remember higher temperatures.
I use already in my concentrates and i dont like too much perfumes, so i add very little drops....but i was just wondering how to add on dry herb in a efficient way.
