getting a steady look at tricomes

im so shakey i see the image quickly through my x30 scope and then its gone, i tryed for a good 10 mins lieng on the floor and now typing it herting my wrist i feel crippled

anyone got tips on how to get a steady look?

remove a part of the leaf set it on a table ...then look

i've gotten better at using mine vanilla, but i do hear a lot of peps have the same problem that your experiencing, and the answer i always hear is exactly what that shit said.. just cut a nice sugar leaf near the area of the bud that you want to look at, and put it on a nice flat surfice..

agreed with all the above scope is a pain to use but im used to mine now just took a leaf off yest. to look for mites and it was pretty easy to see trichs and everything laying it flat,when im checking 4 just trichs i put my hand bhind the bud for support and push the scope right up against the plant

try to use a paper clip i sometimes clip it to a piece of paper ori sometimes use a double sided tape hold it in place and flat

i also have been useing my eyeclops a lot lately right on the plant no need to cut look it up do a search forcheapest i have seen all diff prices

good luck

thats the same exact thing i do with mine..kinda push it into the bud so that the bud holds it still for me..

ahh thanks i will take a lil piece off then, goin to go check now i have 5 auto ak's at 7 weeks... cant believe there ment to have another 3 weeks left

I bought one of those cheap microscopes too. POS! Never could get it right even flat on the table. Of course, I come from a long line of morons.
I got a photographers loupe from my kid, works like a charm. Real convenient.

use 2 hands and put your elbows on your knees. Maybe that would help?

Heres my trick.....first you have to make sure your scope is in focus. Go to a table and find a spot of something on it. Place the scope on the table so it touches the table flat and begin to focus. Once you can see the spot clearly, your scope is ready. Now take into your room and try to look at your plants. My hands are very shakey too! It took me a long time before i could see anything thru my scope. Hold a bud and press the scope into it untill you can see the lil glass mushrooms clearly. You may need to adjust the focus slightly but not much. Hope this helps ya!
