How to maximize peach sweetness before picking?

My early july elberta peaches are ripening and wanted to know if there a few little things to be done to the tree or soil at this stage to maximize flavor or sweetness? Pick in morning,? Pick in afternoon after full sun? Keep tree well watered each morning? Add some fertilizer? Don't water tree? I know to pick when fragrant with peach aroma and soft to the touch.
