Radio Shack has a lighted 60x-100x scope. I think it was like $12-13 when I bought mine 5-6 weeks ago.

Yea 100x scope is the way to go. Those things are intense

The 100 power that flips out from the grow shop is the easiest to focus.

yea the one i got from radio shack i got is 60x-100x but its hard to focus and cant take pics with it! can def get a glimpse tho...

If you put your camera up to the lens and take a pic youll be able to get a shot.. just chop a leaf, put the scope to it amd focus the lens and place your camera as best you can to the lens and snap the pics. That should work just fine

 

[jjames]

i didnt even think of that, ill try when the lights come on in a min...

 

[jjames]

awww s#!*... i won my ebay bid on the digital microscope i wanted finally! after losin three... so i should have it in a week.

 

[253Chiefin]

Nice job with finally winning one. Hopefully itll get there soon and you can start checkin everything out. What kind did u order

 

[jjames]

253- SVP? i think thats it; 10x-500x magnification, 2.7 lcd display, take pics and video, sd/ sdhc card mem slot, and measuring ruler (i think like yours). it looks pretty sick i cant wait.

just got done with weekly flush, ill put up some pics after the suns game...

 

[253Chiefin]

Me too.

253- tried your technique sugg... heres what we saw... worked pretty good, but my camera on my phone is weak.

these are all from one bud leaf tip from a bud from the top of the plant. focused @ 100x

 

[jjames]

we'll go ahead and use these to compare with the new scope when it gets here...

 

[jjames]

some post flush pics. definitely wish i had more light, i feel like wed have bigger buds, although there are a ton of bud sites, they all seem to be pretty dense, i think i like the defol technique. im thinkin i wont have as many lower sites next time, i just wanted to get a feel of how everything would go before i started choppin stuff off.

these jack herer plants have the densest buds ive ever felt that were still on the plant.

blue dream is reeeally frosty, they also are puttin out some super dense buds.

Startin to look purty nice in there jjames. Can we get a big wide angle shot of the grow too?

 

[jjames]

blue dream i think id like to grow again. now that i have a little exp in growing that specific strain, i can work with it better and get it to produce. two things tho, 1- more space and 2- more space, it likes to stretch out quite a bit.

the jack herer is just so cool lookin, id grow again just for that. pretty much care free, no trimmin, water/feed an let it go.

sour grape im on the line with, the one i had to chop looked great, before it hermied on me. it was turnin purple and had light neon orange/yellow hairs. the other two i have now i cant fig out, im guessin the root or lack there of is the problem, theyre very slowly comin back now, i may get a small harvest from them.

 

[jjames]

b- heres a couple wide shots...

blue dream in middle tub and front right tub, jack herer is in the back in the right tub.

2 sour grape, seemingly in limbo.

 

[Bassman59]

Nice, I didnt realize you had done as much topping-training as you have.

Looking good! You might want to consider harvesting bub by bud as they ripen, if you have the space and the time. If you trim in batches, you need to keep each batch separate to avoid mold and maximize cure. Congratulations on a great first time grow!
