Going to be taking down my plants. They could probably use a watering right now.
Do I still water if I plan to harvest on Friday?

Unless they are bone dry... but the extra stress will help resin production if they are mature and ripening. Also less water to evaporate when harvested.

How often do you usually water, every other day? If you did water today, when would the next one usually be? If they need it, today is probably good. Forcing a drought on them will hurt your terpenes and your not going to increase resin by any noticeable amount in 3 days.

You want to harvest the healthiest plant you can. Preferably right after lights on when the sugar content and terpenes are at their maximum.
