So I read somewhere that in drier conditions the marijuana plant will produce more resin/thc to prevent itself from drying out.
So should I underwater on purpose to make the plant produce more?
or will the negative effects of underwatering hurt more then its worth?

I have always heard its best to hold of as long as you can sort of wet dry wet and so on but you dont want to wait till the plant is shocked,try and get it right before for best results

I'ld suggest getting a dehumidifier and keeping the room ery dry, but I don't like the idea of starving your plant. Your plant needs that water and nutrients to produce all of that THC you are after. Dry conditions are great during flowering dry roots are not. A healthy plant is what it takes to produce.
