| Im gonna start by saying i have no true idea and i could be way off on this statement... but... I would think that taking them now might be better. If you wait till the soil is dry I am assuming that alot of that water thats in your pots now would later be in the plant tissue... How retarded does this sound??

I've read several things that say you should not water the last few days before harvest. Let it dry out a little. But I have heard the opposite as well. I have also been told to leave them in the dark for 24-48 hours before harvest. But opinions vary on this as well. Did that answer your question?  DD | ||

| I've harvested right after watering and didn't notice much, if any, difference in the drying process. Last edited by Afew Brickshort; 05-06-2009 at 10:28 PM.. | ||

| i think the only difference it would make is a day or two to dry. if your plant isnt flushed completly, let it go. if you really wanna harvest, do it now.  | ||

| I grow in hydro, so my plants are always watered the day I harvest them.
