My babies are about 4-5 weeks into flower, normally water every 3 days (if they need it) and fert at the end of the week. I read somewhere if you dont water them for a week when the weather is really hot and dry then the resin production is increased. Is this true, the weather has luckly been hot and dry here and was wondering if I should try a full week without watering in these conditions

That sounds a little risky to me, it probably wouldn't kill them but it could easily stress them. In my experience skipping waterings hasn't made my pot better (I didn't do it on purpose) instead it could stress them into going hermie on you.

i think ur confusing this with the finaly drying process, Some growers can speed up the drying time of there pot by not watering it the last week, that way its using up all of the extra water inside it during this week without water instead of the week u are drying it out, this results in but that drys faster

Ever tried to trim a wilting plant? No fun. Give them what they need to the end. Starving them will do nothing positive.:blsmoke:
