you have to have actually bud, a few calyx's with leaflets, to get an accurate reading.
this thing is great!! have to play around wit ;) i took a piece of bud that i got to try it out and f*kin awesome..i also trim a leaf us to c but jus a bunch of dots...im tryin to take pics using the microscope so i can post em on here for yall, its a lil tricky but its def doable.....so u say to trim a piece of the bud wit cal and leaflets will that hurt the plants in ne way? do i jus clip it right t the stem at the bottom of the bud site or...????sry...im jus tryin to learn and figure this stuff out and so i dont f*k ne of them up ya know... ;) thnx....Quote:

Just grab the bud from behind and stabilize it against the scope. Make sure the battery is good, because those rat shack scopes drain the battery fast - and a low battery will give you a false reading. As far as clipping bud, I would not do that, if you like to look often.

'preciate the info....i got a few pics for every one to look at and let me know what ya'll think.... they look more clear to me...a couple of red/amber ones......some 1 jus told me that they start off cloudy, then slowly clear, then turn and amberish color(like tha pistils do right?)...is that about right??? u want no cloudy ones right?? jus clear and amber color....more amber-higher potency,couch lock effect high......1/2-1/2 to more clear-more "up" high?? that sound right?? thnx....:D :stoned:
the stages are: clear, milky, amber, in that order ... Clear trichome = THC not yet at its peak ... Cloudy, milky trichome = THC peaking, head high ... Amber trichomes = past maturity, body stone, 'couchlock' ... I prefer a 'head' high, so I harvest when I get about 5% amber trichomes, then I have a nice (for me) balance ... experiment to find what you like ... harvest some buds at each stage, and label them, for later identification ... :smokin:
cloudy is what gets u high man...i harvest 80%-95% cloudy...
great thnx brah...c its a good thing im askin these questions, other people tellin me the wrong order...lol....yea thats wha i am wantin is tha 'head' high...so 5% amber and the rest cloudy right? well i guess imma clip a lil piece of bud to get a better look, and try and get a pic.. i only clipped a lil piece of a trim leaf near the top thats those 3 pics...Quote:
