Watering Before Harvest

[Guest]

Any advice........ when is it best to give your plants their final watering before harvest?

Should the plants be allowed to become water depleted?
Could this possibly help the plants dry quicker & avoid mold?

Should they be well watered?
Possibly making them easier to trim.....or any other reason?

or

Does it make any difference at all?

Any input is welcome.

You want them to dry out.Stop watering about 5 days before you cut.

Boy thats a matter of opinion right there..I water my plants the night before or several hours before harvest always,I want the slowest possible dry and never have mold problems.Harvesting a nearly dehydrated plant will result in a much quicker dry,if thats what you're after.Either way and trim will still be the same pain in the ass

I water before harvesting, doesn't really matter if you ask me - buds are wet and need to be dried either way.

i know flushing the soil is good right before harvest to wash out all the old nutes so you will have clean buds and a much better smoke

go ahead and water, it produces a better final product, slower to dry.better than bone dry weed
