IMO, it is better to have the plant go through her "fall colors" near harvest. I prefer the smoke at least. I have also read some interesting studies on high N fertilizer in flower, and low THC content (hemp production). In Hemp, that would be a good thing.
Sorry... was only able to dig up one bookmarked article on the subject though. Couldn't find the pdf file on it. Maybe on another computer, not sure. Anyway, check it out.
These experiments show that the THC content of leaves decreases with increasing N doses. This phenomenon is favorable for agricultural production, because nitrogen fertilization will increase stem yield and simultaneously decrease THC content of the plant significantly. Additional studies are necessary to determine optimal N dose/ha, time of application, fertilizer type and the lowest THC content achievable under field conditions.
