It's basically the same idea as sliding them, isn't it?

the best way to do them is to use an artificial harmonic. This is because your finger is already pushing down a fret and if you have the mids up all you have to do is slide your finger. With natural harmonics after you make the harmonic you have to push down the string sometime it gets muted. But te natural harmonic works to just push down the note lightly. Next if you want the same sound as if you are doing the tuner version you have to have a fretless bass
