Thanks.
You dont need to cut whole leaves off, just use tweezers to remove the trichs. You should be checking them at least once every 10minutes 24 hours a day otherwise you risk trichology.Hey guys I've got a minimicroscope from RadioShack and I'm just wondering how often I should be checking the trichomes for color change. I'm in week 5 of flowering and they're still pretty much all clear. And is it ok to just be checking the bud leaves? Cus I feel bad enough cutting off the leaves with crystals on them, let alone the buds themselves!!!
Doesn't this result in smashed trichs and false visions? I mean, the trichs heads do sit on a spike.
Can't REALLY see well enough w/30X loupe, or at least this old man can't. No comparison to 100X mini-mic. A world of difference. If you've never seen trichs super close-up, it's quite extraordinary. I had, thru a real microscope, but this RadioShack mic does a real decent job, despite it being near impossible to view the trichs while still on the plant.why not just look at the plants trichs wen still on the plants with a 30x magnifying glass..??? cutting bits of the plant off
