    Default NFT Draining before harvest?

    Harvest time is just around the corner, and iv read that in soil you don't water them for 3-4 days before harvest. I was wondering if it would make any difference if i drained my NFT system and did the same thing? Has anyone done this? just a curiosity thing so i figured ill ask. Thanks in advance

    I wouldn't - your plants will be a right nightmare to trim on harvest day if you do that. I switch the pump off just before i start chopping.

    I did a staggered harvest/trim over 3 days once. By the 3rd day I had 1 dehydrated plant left & the leaves were shrivelled & wrapped around the buds - making an already difficult job hideous!
