Im looking for the best and cheapest place to find a microscope.Im thinkn fleabay lol.Im only 3 weeks into flower so ive got a lil while but ive always just used a magniflying lens(and its a crappy 1) I wanna look better at my triches this grow as im wanting the great couchlock high from my buds this grow.but is too hard to tell if their amber with my shitty lens i got.Im thinking Id like 1 of those magnifiers that photographers use to look at pics but im unsure what they call it.or Ive heard of pocket microscopes so im curious to those also.any advice (if you know :) ) would be great!

This is a pretty cheap, but efficient pocket microscope, just make sure you get one with 60x+ magnification:

They are like $15 at any hydro store. I wouldn't waste too much time looking for a bargain 15% is like $3.oo hardly worth too much effort.

bad business. money is money and 15% is more than you think. thats 3 more dollars i could spend on something else.

Not at mine, all they have is previous versions for the same price, regardless, the point was to point him in the right direction.

its 15% if i wasted 15% of everything you buy it adds up. 3 bucks on such a small thing like a pocket microscope in net is minimal but percentage wise it is a good chunk. would you try and save 15% on a $300 light, thats $45.

Money is money, you got extra, send it. I agree, no sense in spending extra bux for the same thing. There's a big difference between thrifty and cheap.

I got a Carson 60x-100x scope from Amazon, model MM-200. It even has a built in LED.

I got a pocket microscope from Radioshack and it sucked. I ended up exchanging it for a three-lens pocket magnifying glass with 5x, 10x and 15x mag. You can unfold all three at once and look through them and see the trichomes really clearly. It was maybe $10.
