When harvesting if you've a choice when do you pull ? Daytime ? Night time ? After sun up ? Before sunrise? What do you think is optimal?

Mon likes it to dry S L O W......... so mon times harvest and waits until the plants are thirsty, normaly like 2 days of no water then water early around sun up and cuts within 30-40 mins after watering, so mon choice wuld be early anywhere from 6-7 am til around 9-10 am...watering before chop makes them dry slower and IMO smoke is smoother & tastier cold cure dry 10-14 days minimum, and as long as you need , just control the temps inside where it is drying, fuk all that jar burping bs just dry longer and slower in a very cool place and let it cure while it is hanging then you wont need to "burp" once you take it down trim it is ready to smoke....simple as that.

I don't put much thought into it. Whenever . But generally on harvest day I start in the morning, knock the fan leaves off before cutting down and hanging. So the last plant could be late in the afternoon.

about 10 am here (same local as you basically Mwooten) and I have noticed this seems to be the peak time when the plant looks oily and shiny I prefer the am since it gets pretty warm here by 12 ish

I like to deprive them of light and water for about 3 days, then use only water and drench them and finally harvest them an hour or so later. I like to trim thoroughly and let it dry on the whole plant, rather than cutting the branches off individually - this slows the dry time and makes for a better cure. After that cut it off and put in to jars as usual. Always set a jar of your best buds aside for the longest cure you can manage. The worst mistake people make at the very end is to rush it because they need a smoke. Do it right and you will be happier in the long run.
