Microscope to inspect Trichomes

    Just as the title says, I'm in the market for some sort of microscope to accurately view my trichomes. I don't need the cheapest piece of shit in the world, but I definitely need something good and reliable. I'm willing to spend about $80 or less if possible. If that's not possible, send me your recommendations anyways.

    A 60x magnification or 100x jeweler's loupe works great and are under your budget

    Search amazon. You could get a very nice one with a budget of $80.

    I've got a shitty little 50x scope from my local grow shop, I'm probably just not using it right.

    50x should work. I've got a cheapo $6 one with 30x and 60x from amazon.

    these cheap ones work just as well as a gold plated 1. once it gets all sticky toss it. whatever you buy make sure it has a light. suggest a 6 or 10 dollar unit when it gets dirty and it will toss it into the trash.
    check this unit i have a 100 of these laying around mabe not 100 but i bet you 25 of them.

    Yep, search amazon op. Mine was $6 and has bright led lights and 30x and 60x magnification. Even came with a case. For what we use them for I guess theres no sense in buying an expensive one. It's one of those things that just works the same whether its $5 or $20.
