Never owned one of these things before, so any advice is appreciated, thanks!
 
I discovered a way to see my trichomes without going out and buying a new magnifier. I took an old pair of binoculars unscrewed the lens cap on the small end, took out the lens (it looks like a jewelers eyepeice), then look through it backwards. You have to have it right next to the plant but it works very well. I even put it in front of the lens of my digital camera and took these close up pics.
