I finally broke down and bought a little mini microscope from Radio Shack, like everyone seems to suggest nowadays. The one that I bought has 60x-100x magnification, and actually works a little too good. Instead of focusing on a layer of trichomes, this one will actually show you a close-up of a single trichome stalk! You may want to think about getting one with a little less power, because if I so much as breathe on the plant while trying to look through the microscope, everything gets blown out of focus.
Mr. Clandestine Reviewed by Mr. Clandestine on . Molasses and loupe question Today i bought a jar of blackstrap molasses, and a 8X loupe. Question 1 - This Molasses says it has 15 mg of sodium per tablespoon. Isnt sodium, in essance salt?? Did i get the wrong blackstarp?? Should i looks for a sulfur and sodium free blackstrap? Question 2 - I got this 8X loupe from a camera store, it was only like 8 bucks. Anyways i brought it home and put it up too my plant. I can see the trichs, but its not magnified enough to see the color at the ends. What power loupe Rating: 5
