are my trichomes ready?

first time harvesting, can someone give some advice? this is week 6 in flowering. Thanks

dude we can't see them you need a microscope or a magnifier it's cheap

I think I see some amber color while zooming in on my computer, and it looks like you can see it on the picture above. And I know I need a microscope, they arent cheap.

Cant tell without a good microscope. Go to radioshack and pick up a $12 handheld microscope, it works pretty good

whats a good magnifying strength? 30x ? 5x?

30x loupe on ebay for 3-5 bucks bro...i see amber ...peace

The ones Radio Shack carry are 80x-100x and work great for less than 20 bucks. Just dont forget 2 AAA batteries.......also the USB microscopes you can get at most bigger toy stores work fantastic. Some of the best up close pics I have seen were taken with one.

thanks, Can i close this thread now? and how?
