just as i asked above how do you use yours to see your trichs i got a 60x-100x hand held from radio shack 15$ but i cant keep the buds/scope steady enough to adjust focus and actually look at the trich heads and then when i do finally get it i've already crushed all the heads:sad: give me advice and help a guy harvest right!!!

You need to cut a piece of sugar leaf (as close to the bud as possible)....then put it on the table and look at it. Any other way and you'll be shaking and looking all over the place.

I have the 45x scope($5 ebay), but use a 15x loupe also. These things are so cheap, why not get a few different powers to cover all. Speaking of that.... I am gonna look for a 30x loupe.

I have trouble holding the 45x steady on plant, a 100x? Don't think so. If you can trim off a bit of bud or leaf and put it on white paper, you will be steadier and the paper will make the trichs colors stand out better.

Kevin is absolutely correct. I rarely use my scope and when I do I always question why i just did? I think its seductive to see that shit close up :hump: but yeah, I know when its done just by the looks of the plant.
