Will stop watering help start the drying/curing process?

My trich’s are getting close and my soil is almost ready for another watering.
Any experienced growers know if it’s better just to keep soil damp during harvest or let it dry up so plant starts feeding on itself?

If you feel that your grow is about ready for harvest. Water it. If you want to harvest do not. Sounds like you should water your plants.

Thanks.
