Got myself a 420 scope found it on amazon for like $14 I think -it does the job fairly well

I bought mine on ebay a couple of years ago, batteries are still going. It's 60x. You can't look at big areas at once but it's perfect for trichs and identifying pests.

This is the type i have, it's only $6 now with free shipping:

HTG supply has 2... I like the 30x 60x better personally. the more powerful ones are way to hard to hold steady... or get a jewelers loupe.

60x minimum if you actually want to see anything useful.

Yeah those 30X loupes are hard to see, if you can find a 60x loupe that's the go. Some of those mini microscopes are real unsteady and hard to see.

Dimmebong's one looks all good though.

The shield needs to rest against the bud to be steady, then the lens can be raised or lowered with the wheel.

I found one for $15 at my local indoor garden shop that looks like this. Does the trick, gets a little gummed up, so I try to keep my inspections to a minimum and wait until week 8 of flower to start looking.

If your loupe doesn't stick to the plant when you let go like
"look mah no hands" it's not ready yet.

Haha! Exactly!

Hey guys thanks for all the help! I ended up settling on the 420 scope 60x - 100x. http://www.puffitup.com/420-Scope-60-100x-Magnifier-420Scope-NEW-Free-Ship-p/420scope60x100.htm
21 bucks and 6 bucks shipping. On the actual 420 scope website it was 26 bucks and it was like 30 dollars for shipping fuck that!! haha Amazon had the scopes to but it wasn't free shipping to NZ.

Dimebong that would have been my second choice but I had a little extra cash to spare this week

let us know how that one works out Letstrip, I need one too.

I have found mine 2 work great..

I got one exactly like that at radio shack.

Got my 420 scope! Its haven't looked at any bud yet but there were a few crumbs in a container I had and wow its amazing seeing trichome up close, its pretty clear to.

Takes some patience but once its focused in and you suss the scope out its great. x100 zoom is out of it haha Also its wack looking at shit up close like flowers and coins and just anything small.

The potato leaf was mad to look at up close. Can see all the little spines and hairs and shit
