the very best time to harvest

it depends on what kind of high you want, which means the colors of your trichomes. i like mostly milky, with a few clear, and a few amber....

 

do a search for trichomes. there's a lot of threads with good pics out there.

 

You will need 30x magnifier, or something close to 30x. Radio shack has them for like $15.
The 60x-120x magnifier works just fine too.
Keep it at 60x though.

 

Yep, a 30-60x magnifier will give you a nice look at the trichs. Alternatively, you may be able to get a look at your trichomes for free if you have some binoculars laying around...
