Magnifiers for looking at trichomes

ok...i snipped a leaf and looked at it on a flat surface, that worked quite well but it was kinda dark and hard to see. IT TURNS OUT THERE IS A LIGHT on this thing...that little fact seemed to slip Harris's mind....i feel like banging my head against the wall, lol. Turns out, our microscope works GREAT!!! (don't i feel like an idiot, lol).

Results: checked the trichs on the 2 oldest plants, most of them are cloudy, with a couple clear and a couple amber!!!! I'm so excited...time to go flush!!!!!!

hi, its probably not much help as i got this in the UK, its from maplin electronics shop, simmilar to radio shack over there i guess...
works really well, ajustable focus 30x-100-x, lets you see the trichs really well but you have to snip a little sample from the plant, its no good using it on the plant because its impossible to keep the thing still enough!!

^^ that's what i'm talking about!

thanx baby star, now i don't have to post a pic:)

yeah that's similar to the one i have (thanks for the pic btw), except mine is only 30x and there isn't an eye piece that pulls out. I'm glad it works so well and I finally figured out how to use it! I've got the bathtub running right now to flush our babes.

no...dont flush like that......wait!!!!!

what...

post a pic..i do not think it is ready for all of that

hmm ok, i will go take some pics

The way you tell maturity of plants is by the trichome colour.
We have a very few Amber tricombs. IMO it’s a little late to be flushing.
We flush and they chill out for a bout 10 days, the snip snip.

What can you tell from the pictures as you cannot see the tric’s

i still want to see a pic i would just leave them alone and feed them str8 h20 for the ten days. dont put them in the tub
