Cheap Easy Scope To See Trichrome!

[BuddyKronik]

So basically I have no idea if this is even relevant on here anywhere or not
but I don't have money for an expensive microscope or anything and it's kind of hard to find a jewellers loupe around my town so I bought a magnifying glass that was only like 5x and that didn't work that good ( all thought my buds looked pretty great .. So I needed something different ... And I found the perfect solution , you know those cheap laser pointers for cat toys ? Well if you take out the top piece In it there is a tiny lens that you can put on your iPhone or android and use to zoom in real close just thought it was a useful tip to see when your buds are ready even tho I'm a friggin newb ! Lol but here's a few pics of what I mean :

That's a pretty cool diy job.

I picked up a 60x-100x scope on amazon for $11. It isn't great, kinda hard to hold it still while focusing, but it lets you get up close and personal with the trichs. Here's a link if you're interested: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000P8AUMU/ref=ya_aw_oh_pit

Yeah , the way I did it is kind of hard to hold still but if you can get it nice and still then you can get some nice close up pics and everything so everyone can see the nice tasty buds your makin idk I know it isn't directly related to growing herb but I figured this simple trick could help out any of you mcgyvers out there that are too stoned to go buy a scope xD enjoy - BuddyKronik
