best time of day to harvest

[dreadydrug]

i know that it's better to take clones in the morning because they've got more water to support them because they get it ready for the day ahead of them. so surly it would be better to harvest just before lights out because it's got the least water. or do you want more water to take longer to cure thus giving all the other shit more time to break down?

well whats your favourite time of day to harvest?

Very interesting question.... very interesting reasoning.

I wouldn't know the interesting answer... but I'll stay tuned.

I harvest at night, because i like to give them their last day of light, then i sit upall night cutting the biggest fan leaves, smelling the bud and hanging it all up

[friendowl]

i also harvest afet one last day of light
i love cutting the nuds and hangin em up
i feel like the man cuz outside my door
everyone is asking
"do you know where i can get some good bud"
"i really need a joint"

I don't KNOW what is "BETTER".

But what LIP said is pretty much the method of choice...

There is also the moon cycle as well which plays a small part. When there is a full moon the magnetic force from the moon draws more water to the top of the plant. It's probably best to harvest when there is no moon that way drying time is a bit quicker.
Myself, i harvest when ever i feel like it

That's cool... I'm trying to do the moon harvesting thing... I cut my clones with almost full moon... Don't know if this will help any, but, what the heck.

It would seem the whole moon/gravitational thing would have its most impact outdoors.

But that's just my uninformed opinion.

As far as indoor growers, just after the end of the "on" cycle of the day would be the most popular, due to that fact that it is when you get home from work. At least, that's been my experience.

wow is that moon gravity thing real???? thats mad

[dreadydrug]

how does that work then? just because we can't see the moon as well when it's not a full moon it's still gonna be there isn't it. light doesn't cause a magnetic field & the moon is always there even when it's not completely lit up.

i doubt that actually makes any difference on a full moon to any other moon cos the magnetic field comes from the gravetational pull of the moon & thats there every night.
