+1 on Radio Shack. I got mine there for less then $13. 30-100x with light. Works great.

again im left bewildered at the fact yet another person is suggesting to use this. the 200x usb cost a lot more but i promise every person here that they will love it so much more than that stupid radio shack one, you dont have to hold your eye into it like a tard looking through binoculars and like i said it makes it really dangerous because while you have your face planted into this trying to see your trichs you cant really judge your distance while your pressed up against your plant.

it works, but not easily and definetely not safely, that radio shack scope is made to be stationary not in the shaky hands of someone looking for trichs, but be my guest and see for yourself.

what kind of magnifier do you need to see those? like a household one or do I need to invest in something?

i am almost 100% certain those pictures were taken with the 200x usb microscope, not to sound like a youtube whore, but i was fed up with my lame radio shack one as its not so easy to use.
so i searched around and found a video of some dude using the 200x usb one, what i recommended he told me it was usb blah blah gave me links to buy one and it can take pictures making it way easier to use, especially since you dont have to put your eye in it, on top of all that it comes with this handy little stand so if you feel the need to take samples off your bud and check that way you best believe this thing is perfect for that as well as it just sits in its little cradle and you can adjust it without worrying about your hand shaking. makes sense and his video was quite impressive the quality as it looked exactly the same as these pictures.

personally anyone who has any common sense knows that the color of the trich determines the type of high you will get which is obviously stated at the start of this, no clue why that guy is talking about if you wait for all amber it will take long like its a mistake or something, time clearly isnt the issue its the way the person wants their product to effect them. i like my trichs nice and toasty, i love being super stoned im not a fan of the air like lighter highs which normally comes with lighter cloudier trichs, i like it to be sick and heavy, which causes for mostly amber trichomes which means waiting longer to get them.

Why don't you take in new facts? Sounds like a closed mind. There ARE strains that will never amber, however all strains will OXIDIZE (degrade) the thrics into a brown color, which is not true amber. I've personally waited too long, so there IS such a ting.

Also, peak THC is not amber, it's cloudy.
You want couchlock? Grow and Indica until it's peak THC (not necessary amber).

You'll get couchlock anyway, depending on genetics. I'm not talking about "fake" oxidized amber, I'm talking about true CBD - which is genetics and will be expressed if harvested at peak THC.

Also, I'm assuming you all cure your buds. A LOT of the thrics will get amber during cure anyway.
