I've been hearing mixed ideas on this one. Should I or shouldn't leave my lights off for a couple days before harvest to extract the THC?

I dont have any real info on the subject, but Iwould like to know more if anyone has any knowledge..thanks

it helps, but not by much. maybe a total of 1% thc increase overall.

dude.....hellz yeah you want to turn off the lights for the last 48 hours. cut in the dark, hang in the dark. MUCH increase in potency. you like potent nugs, don't you? <~~~ not really a question.

it's not that much of an increase uf. one dutch company noted that there was up to a 5% increase. this is not 5% total, but 5% of the thc percentage. ie, if the product is 20% thc, 5% of 20% is 1%, total would be 21%.
