Man, I started monitoring my trichomes to see where i'm at, and how many weeks left i'm looking at. And damn, that $hit is difficult.
I have a 40x jewellers loupe, a 60x phone attachment magnifier, and a 200-240x magnifier.
The loupe isn't strong enough to show me the trichome heads clearly, and the 200x magnifier is really hard to keep still. Cause it's so zoomed in any slight tremor of the hand or the bud and you can't see jack-all. Not to mention that when the magnifier touches the bud, it moves the bud and once again, you can't see jack-all.
The 200x magnifier is great. Like I'm getting glimpses of the trichomes and the image is really clear and distinct, it's just that I can only see them for a split second before the image moves or disappears.
Am I missing a specific technique on how to look at the trichomes?
It ain't as easy as I imagined.
/rant over/
These are the pics I managed to snap with the phone magnifier. What do you guys say?
Honestly, I can't make much of it. I'm not sure what it means?
Like, I know that i'm best of harvesting when 50% of all trichomes turn cloudy, but it's just not easy to tell.
Help a brother out. Pretty please.
