Dark period before harvest?

Hello growers. I was wondering what peoples opinions were regarding leaving your plants in the dark for 48 hrs before harvest? I have read that plants store starches in the roots and those starches move into the plant when the lights go on so it is best to leave plants in dark and chop before lights on. I also read the plant increases resin production when left in dark. Any real world opinions on this here? Thanks in advance for your input.

It might be better to chop before lights come on but waiting days won't do anything.
