  1. I know the whole trichomes 30% amber and such. BUUUUT I don't have a jewelers loupe and apparently no store around me does either. (Walmart, Walgreens, lowes etc) any tips on a dif method maybe or could a regular magnifying glass work? I know she's not prob ready to harvest just yet, but I wanna be ready. Plus I'm impatient.

  3. Try using your phone camera and zooming to the max. Or a bigger camera.

    Got mine at the local radio shack.
    You need about 60x to really see what you need to see.
    Search for handheld microscope. They run about $15.00
    I take tiny snips off several spots on the plants and go inside to a table for my inspections.

  5. Imo if you wait a week after 90% of the your white pistols are gone you should be good to harvest (most of the time) lol

  6. Another method is to wait until they trichomes don't sparkle like glass chips but look more dull. That happens when they go from clear to cloudy.
