What's the best (read: cheapest) instrument for checking out trichs to see when they're cloudy/ amber? I have a little spotting scope, but it's impossible to see the trichome heads with it since it's so wobbly.... should I just get a big magnifying glass or is there something a little easier to use and cheaper?
but I'm not looking at jewelry.... can you help me out with which one is best for this purpose? What magnification? what focal range, what number of lenses? etc...
Harry...a 10x-15x magnification loup would be fine. A decent magnifying glass would probly even work. I have a 10x loup i got from a friend, works fine. The dublet, is as big as u need as far as number of lenses.
As far as getting them locally. Do you have an optics shop or scientific supplies shop ?
Only thing bad about it is that you're going to have to cut a piece of trim off and put it on a table to get a good look. Take one look at trichomes magnified like that and you'll agree it's worth it though.
