Hi,

does anybody know what the best thing to use would be for checking the trichome colour ? Is there a specific bit of kit I should buy, I know a magnifying glass may do but is there anything better for checking crop readiness ?

Thanks in advance,

i use my mates sony cybershot t1, has an amazing 1cm macro mode so you can photo your trichomes and maybe get some other opinions.. not cheap though.

i've seen a good few magnifiers from online headshops, maybe even uk420? never checked

i got a jewellers loupe from ebay usa for £3.78 shipped to my door within 10 days.

has a x20 and a x10 lens which can be used together for a x30 which is plenty for trichome close up porn

was a company called white summatorother, sorry i can't be more helpful, but i bought mine 18 months ago and by buying from the usa i saved a fortune.

i would agree these are great and very cheap.
on many grow shop sites you can also buy hand held microscopes, these are great too.

IMHO get as good as you can afford cos studying them trichomes is as fascinating in its own way as the actual growing of the plant is.

it all goes towards that bonding between me and me plants.#

I got mine from the UK420 Store... It's great!!!

I got the magnifying loop too but you cannot beat the magnifyer with light that is in the shop - wish I had waited.....one day I will aquire one.

Excellent, thanks guys.
