don't bother tryingn to affect drying times with your lack of watering.. will only hurt the plant and make virtually no difference worth the trouble in your drying times. dakeness.. meh.. even if it does work it can't have a major impact. there is no magic technique that makes a huge difference when it only impacts 1 or 2 days out of a hundred invested... 1 or 2 days of light or lack of light won't be a significant difference even if it amounts to a measurable difference that is statistically significicant (stats terminology). is it worth a maybe to add a miniscule more potency? just a maybe.. no guarantees.. so blind faith with no proof. might as well pray to a pantheon of gods, too.

This is a debatable topic. I personally do 48 hours of dark then cut it down. I keep plant moist during this time. It will use a lot less water in dark. My bud always has a strong smell, and is smoother and potent. I have experimented over the years with different ways. I prefer this for the best result. Mainly it is for taste. Good luck with whatever you choose

Depends on how long you're going to wait before you chop it. If the soil is dry and you want to wait a few more days before harvesting, water it. If she's dry on the day that you want to chop, don't worry about it. I always chop after a full 12 hours of light. It's what works for me and i get good results. Don't get fooled by people telling you to put it in darkness for 2 days before you chop to "mAkE mORe TrIchOmEz." That's bro-science and doesn't do anything other than act as placebo. Science states that cannabis produces resin glands while photosynthesizing. Plants photosynthesize while the lights are ON. I'm actually going to start experimenting with giving high intensities of light to the plants for the last day it will be alive. Flipping back to 24 hour light, basically. I wonder if it will help push out the last few trichomes the plant was working on creating... I hope this helps. Happy Harvesting!
