72 hours of dark before harvest: Does it help?

So I am about 1 week from harvest and I have always heard if you put your plants in the dark for 72 hours before harvest they will gain resin production and swell
some more. I wanted to try this out myself to see if it works. So i stopped by the room earlier and took 4 of the most ripe looking ladies out. I put those in a seperate room with the lights off and a fan on them. Before I turned the lights off I took pics and checked the trichs with a 60x-100x scope. I will go back to the spot in 72 hours and check it out the trichs and see if the bud has changed in appearance or size at all. Anyone tried this before?? I will have an update with pics in about 69 more hours.. but until then

I do it. For several reasons, including the simple fact it is 3 more days of growth. So I wait until I am Sure I can Cut.. then wait 3x days. :)
