I got the right microscope now! But need help on what to look for in the buds!!

:wall: Ok I went out to radio shack and bout the microscope that I was told to buy, 60-100x! And when I look under the scope, what exactly am I looking for in all the hairs? I think it is ready to be cut! But I don't really know, I either cut them too early or too late! But now that I have the right shit, I will know what to do now! And I don't have my camera right now, my sister has it, or I would put some pics up! But I can use all the help I can get on this one!!

You aren't looking at the hairs with the microscope. You're looking at the Trichomes (the crystals/hashish/kif) It all depends on you're personal preference as to when you'd like to pick your buds. I would wait till about 50% of the trichomes have turned a slight amber color then pick it for a mixed cerebral/body high/slightly stoned. The longer you let them ripen the stronger the buzz will get, but be careful if you let them go too long you will ruin the plant. So 3 things you should do. 1)look at trichome and see a clear crystal head 2)look at trichome and see a milky greyish crystal head 3) look at trichome and see a amberish(goldish/redish) colored crystal head. If you can spot all of these then i'd say you can start deciding when you want to harvest. First locate those 3 things. Also GOOGLE the hell out of this question, it's been asked my trillions of people.bongsmilie
