That would rub me the wrong way too. Just start a thread called "THE REAL Anything Outdoors 2020" LOL.
Congrats on the harvest. Always feels good to hang them. Also good to have a pile of smoke with stay at home orders coming.
Personally, I don't mind letting them get a bit dry at the end of flower before harvest. I don't do it to stress them out or to increase resin or anything along those lines - being I'm an organic soil grower, I want the plant to feed from the reserves stored in the leaves, resulting in a much cleaner burning and tasting smoke, even prior to cure. It's just something I've been doing for years and it's always seem to make a positive difference. Your results may vary given the difference in media and over all growing practices.

Yea I started my Anything Outdoors 2020 thread and a guy was like theres already a Anything Outdoors 2020 thread. I didn't even know he'd started it until a few days ago. He must have started it Jan 1 to try to get in front. So I'd already made my 2020 Anything Outdoors and posted it up. Like I was saying I've named the thread 2yrs running the same thing, This beening the 3rd yr, at least name your shit something I haven't built up for over 2yrs.
Enough of that BS, I'm just doing what I always do. It's obviously easy to see his intent, The member posted many times in 2018, 2019, so he knows I started the thread almost 3yrs ago now. But whatever if he wants to look like a coat tail rider I'm fine with it. I posted this is the ORIGINAL Anything Outdoors, not the imitators thread.
But yea I flush the hell outta my plants the last few weeks and let them dry, I do like them kinda dry like your saying, I've tried a lot of different things over the yrs the last week or so of flowering. I used to do 48 hrs darkness before harvest, and some other things. Sometimes at the end you might get a lil more resin or trichs doing things. I'm sure you've tried everything too over the yrs. I kinda like to get the leaves to start yellowing at harvest, you usually got them flushed good, get a decent dry and cure
