Fluting and cutting down in the same day?

Hi guys today I did my final flush with just water. Would it be ok if I cut down today as well or should I wait a day or two for the soil to dry and then cut? And If I did cut down today, would there be any chance of the crop molding while drying because of the water that is still in the stems?

Don't chop now. The plant is turgid with water and you'll have a much greater risk for bud rot. I'd wait 4 or 5 days after the last watering before I chopped.

I agree... I always wait until my soil is fairly dry after I give them the final watering before harvest... Because I usually have alot of undergrowth that is JUST starting to get nice, cotton-puff buds started up, and I usually benefit from letting that flower out to maturity instead of taking the whole plant down at once, usually... Although with the use of tying down branches and staking others in such a fashion that all of my vegetation is exposed to the lights, I will sometimes take whole plants if they are 90% + maturethroughout the entire plant, top to bottom.... It's kinda hard with the FIM and supercropping methods I employ to create huge bushes instead of just "naturally" shaped plants, with one central kola...
