Need a dark cycle prior harvest?

Do you recommend a dark cycle before harvest? If so for how long? Currently I'm flushing her and getting ready for harvest.

No. And don't use the "F" word,

Not typically. But if you're already starving her might as well lock her in a dark closet for a few days.

Just grow the bloody plant and then harvest it. They get a dark period every day, and will get indefinite darkness when you harvest.

The plant doesn't die the second you cut the stem.

Perrier flush, candles and some Al Green

They don’t need the flush or dark cycle.

I've let my plants dry in place several times now, so they are probably in the dark for a week before they are fully dead, and it had no effect on potency even when I compared clones that I harvested in different conditions. Focus instead on your drying/curing conditions and try to do a nice "low and slow" dry to hold onto your terps.
