Sooooo, I bought a jeweler’s loupe and one of those clip-on your phone magnifying lenses to try to take those up-close pics of the trichomes. But, I cannot get the clear pics that I see posted on here. I have an iPhone X. When I use the jeweler’s loupes, I can see the translucent trichomes, but I cannot seem to get the pics of them. How are you getting those pics? Here is what I played with today - Bruce Banner v2 (auto) day 69 (3/43 of flowering):

Does your loope have 2 magnifications? I have a hard time getting them as well. I use the biggest magnification, I clean all the lenses really well and lay the loope right over the camera lens and tape it on. It is hard to hold steady but if you brace your hand against something it’s a lot easier. I’ve also had luck using just the camera zoom…
Good luck!
