READ FIRST: Cannabis Photography Posting Guide, Photo Help & Best-Shot Threads

[logic]

Welcome to Cannabis Photography​

This forum is for cannabis photography: plant shots, bud shots, trichomes, macros, harvest photos, dry/cure photos, canopy shots, and clean grow-room photography.

Use this thread as the quick guide for where to post, how to label your photos, and how to keep the forum easy to browse.

Before you post photos​

1. Upload images directly to THCFarmer. Do not hotlink outside image hosts.
2. Keep it cannabis-photography related. Plant, flower, bud, trichome, harvest, and grow-room photos belong here.
3. Use the right section. Camera questions, upload problems, lighting help, macro/trichome questions, and video questions belong in Photography Help.
4. Protect your privacy. Do not show faces, license plates, mail, addresses, street signs, tracking labels, recognizable locations, or anything that identifies you or someone else.
5. No buying, selling, trading, soliciting, or hookups. Keep the thread about photography and cultivation discussion only.
6. No trolling, flaming, spam, duplicate posts, porn, or personal information.

Make your photo thread more useful​

When posting a plant or bud photo, include as much of this as you can:

• Cultivar / strain:
• Flower day or week:
• Indoor or outdoor:
• Lighting:
• Camera / phone / lens:
• What kind of feedback you want, if any:

Example:

​

Cultivar: Blue Dream​

Stage: Week 6 flower​

Lighting: LED, white-light photo​

Camera: iPhone, no filter​

Feedback wanted: color accuracy and trichome clarity​

​

Quick photo tips​

• Turn blurple/grow lights off and use neutral white light when you want accurate color.
• Wipe your lens before shooting.
• Tap to focus on the bud, pistils, or trichomes.
• Use a tripod, box, table, or steady hand rest for macro shots.
• Avoid digital zoom; move closer or crop afterward.
• Post one close-up and one wider context shot when asking for feedback.
• Pick your best shots instead of posting many near-duplicates.
