Review on Grow1 Hydroponic Illuminated Double Microscope by Mike Davis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I wasn't sure and bought it last. I wish I had bought it beforehand.

Before buying I bought a microscope with a magnification of 60X-100X because I was afraid that 30x would not be enough. I still think the microscope is useful, but it has the disadvantage that it needs a stable base because it has a very small field of view. I can check trichomes with this magnifying glass, but I found I had to turn off the LED to see the "real picture". The color of the trich is not an issue with the product, the trich naturally reflects most light (resulting in the heads of the trich appearing bright white when clear, cloudy or yellow). I need to put a magnifying glass on my face and on my plant for an effective experience. Again, I do not blame the product. I also find LED lighting useful for walking in the dark. Second use for those of you with zero light grow rooms. It's not bright enough to disrupt the plant's photoperiod cycle, but bright enough not to accidentally trample the plants in your garden.

Pros

Cons
  • Not sure
