Well I guess everybody think its just a pretty picture that I posted.....

However...this is how i checked my trichomes even though i have a portable microscope and jeweler loupe. Needless to say, I have verified this method with my microscope and I have high confidence that this method is accurate. You can check it yourself when your loupe comes in.

Just an FYI to everybody...chroma is different from just color saturation.
I know what Chroma filters are. I'm a software engineer. I'm glad you had good luck with that correlation vs direct visualization. However I wouldn't trust it with only anecdotal data. I could come up with more confounding factors but it's not important. I'm glad it worked for you.

it realy pays off having the light as closeas possible to the grow as you can safely do, i have my mars ts600 about 1" from the light, but im in a cold conservatory. the extra tightness of growth you get pays dividens in the end
wait untill you can try a clone, you would love them

I'll re-iterate what i posted in a separate thread and I'll be willing to go to the mat with @Xs121 on this one.

Back when I had long hair and lived in Modesto I dumped a few items in the back alley.

A lesbian couple came through and asked if the stuff was free.

They called me ma’am.

Then-wife and I laughed about it for days.

But way deep down I felt it as a compliment.
They thought they found themselves a swinging couple.

Lovely, but you can't directly compare a massively magnified image to 1-3ish magnification from a cellphone. For example what's the percent difference between cloudy and clear on my 60X image? It's not important. If what you do works for you don't stop. I just don't see it and gave you my reasons.

Ohh I totally agree with you. I used to be a professional photographer for an international yacht magazine. A sharp glass is priceless.
