Soil Growers - Last water before harvest

Post by wutang »

Hey all

I am on my first soil grow and wanted to know when you guys last water before harvest?

For example, I water every 4 to 5 days. Is it best to harvest on the day the plant usually needs watering? i.e. the medium is pretty dry.

Or would you harvest a few days after watering so there is some water content in the medium?

Hope that makes sense.

Cheers

Do they dry quicker this way, as they possibly would have less water content in the branches/buds?
