thats a myth that has been circulating for many years, the best way to harvest is to chop the plant at the bottom of the stem, and then hang it in a dark room to dry slowly (the slower the better) Once dry cure for 2 weeks and then smoke.

yeah just another wifes tale , like hanging it upside down produces more resin

what it does do is give you a more convienient place to hang and it also stops the fan leaves "laping" over the cola's producing a greater chance of mould ,

 

 

as for hangign it whole of in cola's thats a choice of preferance and depoends how much you trust your drying room , you have less chance of somethign going wrong if you cut them into cola's and hang but it will also dry faster than if you hang a whole plant ( the more stem the more time) if you have great ventilation and are not concerned with mould hang em to dry holw otherwise cut them into smaller bits to hang
