Pre-harvest Care

4EverGreen
4EverGreenstarted grow question 2 months ago
My question is related to harvest techniques. I have seen where several diaries talk about water restrictions the last 1-2 days prior to harvest and also about placing the plant(s) in the dark for 4-7 days prior to harvest. I would like to hear from the master growers on it. TY

Extended darkness is bs ghetto science. Witholding water for the last 24-48 hours makes drying easier. Neither "technique" will miraculously cause extra THC to magically appear. The less stress and the more normal the plants are treated before harvest, the better.The last thing you want to do after weeks/months of careful, dedicated growing, is to stress the plant in any way right before you harvest them. Over the last 40 years I have tried just about every urban myth out there and 99% are garbage. Harvesting healthy, unstressed plants is the only thing I believe in these days.

Leaving them in the dark doesn't do anything from my experience. I water up until the point of harvest, obviously not the day I chop her as that's pointless.
