Stick them in a window. Keep the soil moist. Start with known easier species and hybrids and work your way up from there.

Start by bagging them in a zip lock up when you receive them, over the course of a few weeks (maybe open a little bit once a week), open the bag slightly until the bag is fully open and under the lip of the pot

Acclimatization is what SFLguy just described...

I don't always drink.... But when I do... I drink Rainwater.... Stay thirsty my friends.
