What kind of magnifying glass do I need?

Looking into getting sum object to see the tri’s when the time has come, I have run across sum info here but can’t find it now, thx in advance

Well, what you shouldn’t get is a Carson brand pocket microscope. I have one and it’s adequate but very difficult to hold steady enough. I’ll be watching to see if someone has a better recommendation.

A Jeweler’s loupe works great!! And very inexpensive!!

60x seems to be as strong as they get, ?

I have one that has two a 30X and a 60X

This is what I use.
The 30x is easier to view and gets the job done.
The smaller 60x view is closer but a little more difficult to use but if you need to get closer it works well.

There are also ones you plug into USB on laptop etc I’ve seen others use that probably have more zoom.
I agree about the Carson it is difficult to use while bud is still on the plant.

I use a loupe similar to that one. It does exactly what it needs to for under $10.
