It is common to cut off the water and WATCH !!! the plants till willted to add to the production of resin.
In a large bucket system it took 5 days for the plants to wilt back. NOTE this must be done with caution.

You also run the risk of hermie of they go too hot from the stress of no water to cool them.

Watch for hermie trates from now until you are done. fyi

this happened to me, using my 1st aero system...and they hermied from the heat stress, similar to what Z says. lw
I pulled them early,about week5-6 and they were some surprisingly good smoke...In case you have to make a decision, later
