you can get a good microscope from radio shack for only $12, 100x zoom and it works great. That looks like a sativa dominant plant though so I'd give it at least 10 weeks total to flower.

WTF??!? you trim a plant AT harvest time. why would you trim it before?

some people trim fan leaves off plants to allow more light to penetrate the smaller leaves/branches, but this should only be done in veg because it causes alot of stress during flower. The plant will focus on healing the wounds instead of packing on buds. It also slows the rate of photosynthesis

but thats a counterproductive practice. why take away the plants prime light catching leaves to light smaller, further away leaves. lumen loss from HID lighting is exponential the further away you get. that means if at the reflector youve got 100 lumens then a foot away youve only got 10.

try this... remove those scraggly secondary branches instead of the nice big stuff getting the prime light. now the plant is forced to send its energy towards those prime top buds eliminating smaller BS buds.

people who cut fan leaves at any time during the plants life cycle are ignorant to basic plant biology...plain and simple.
