what is so risky about drying it?
IMO;
Extracting with a Non-polar solvent is the best route when you freeze the material while it's still wet.
Take this as an opportunity to gather your own perspective on what exactly you prefer.
If I were in your shoes, I'd freeze half of your material to make your drying more manageable and run various experiments.
Comparing the fresh frozen methodology vs dry material in both solvent and no solvent capacities.

Keeping large quantities of weed at home is not a good idea in the country i live in.
I want to shop fast, make concentrate fast, and then hide it fast

if no1 knows theres weed in your house.. then how u going to get caught.. does your country not have the same laws for extracts? theres some places in the US.. that extracts are way worse to have then flowers.. and then others that extracts are the same exact charge as flowers.. so having less concentrate is better then having a bunch of flowers..
but honestly. how many plants you going to grow.. and how much do you normally harvest.. drying a lb indoors.. compared to 50 .. i see why you would care..
but if your drying under 5 lbs.. ive dried 5 pounds in a single 3x3x6 closet.. with no problems.. just put a carbon filter hanging from my ceiling.. and going out into the attic and out the attic exhausts..
is smell an issue. or is it just you dont have anywere to actually dry..
ive dried in totes.. 5 galllon buckets.. trashbags 1/4 filled and the bags folded over to expose the top layer to air.. and a fan on low oscilating over the tops to get rid of the moisture.. and just mix up the bags move the bottom buds to the top.. and so forth until dry..
in all seriousness. u could dry it and just vacuum bag them.. if your making it into extracts. it could be bricked up like swag if you dont care lol.. and hidden..
i think its mainly about how much material your going to have come harvest time.. and how much you can make into bho quickly..
more info could help us help u do this more discretely
