wow, this thing is kinda complicated. I've got a stand coming soon so that should help stabilize the pictures and video some. Lots of inside measurements things, this thing was made for measuring microscopic things (like a dental fillings, and micro electrical wiring), so I've got some learning if I want to measure trichomes lenghts, diameters and density. Lighting is also an issue.

Here's some of the first pics and video.

I'm pretty flooded and disorganized currently. Too many plants for my space (6x6) x2, Od. I'm trying to juggle a few of these (different strains) of photo's until I can get around to them, clearing up most of the auto's that have bloomed so far, once the hit the stretch, the kinda bloated my garden here. The new lights coming will help, but I don't have any more space to give up to this.

These pics were from this little guy that's been curing in his pot, but it was only a little larfy bottom bud I chopped off for checking out how the camera works. I think the stand should be coming in today, so once I get that setup, I'll take some pics of thicker stuff, and probably some of the male pollens as well (hopefully, with predator mite eggs still in them).

I'll try and figure out how to get the grid view setup, so I can start making actual measurements of the trichomes.
I've got another much better film of the inside of the bud, (much thicker/whiter trichomes) but the video was AVI format and too large to upload, (video file size restrictions) so I need to stick with MP4 format, The AVI format was like 10x larger for 20 sec clips, (around 130 mb vs 13 mb for the MP4's)

Some more pic's of the few autos I have that are coming around. The first the sad little purple haze, I'm going to breed it into my frankenstein auto and see if I can get some size out of them, and try to keep some of the purple haze genetics.

The rest are Early Girl auto, White widow auto, and I think there's a GG#4 lurking somewhere in there, but I can't identify it. (can't find it's marker).

My cat's always eating bottom leaves when I"m not paying attention. I don't care, if there not seedlings.
