Why Pay Attention to Trichomes?
- Clear Trichomes: The plant is still immature and hasn’t reached its full potential or size.
- Cloudy White Trichomes: The plant has reached its peak vitality and is at its most potent.
- Amber Trichomes: As the plant continues to mature, the trichomes turn amber (yellow).
Why Choose the Spider Farmer Trichome Magnifier?
- Spider Farmer Trichome Magnifier: Many growers already have smartphones with advanced cameras. With good lighting and a steady hand, you can easily capture clear, high-quality trichome photos, allowing you to track the plant’s progress and revisit them anytime.
- Handheld Magnifiers: These don’t provide enough magnification for a clear view.
- Jeweler’s Magnifiers: Affordable, but they have a small viewing window.

Check that the microscope holder’s hole is accurately aligned with your phone’s main camera.
How to identify the main camera? Open your phone’s camera app and cover each lens one by one with your finger. The screen goes completely black when you cover the main camera. -
Turn on the built-in LED light of the microscope
The built-in LED provides additional illumination, which helps improve image clarity—especially in low-light conditions. -
Bring the phone close to the object and adjust the angle
The closer the lens is to the object, the higher the magnification. Keep your hand steady and make small angle adjustments. When the image auto-focuses and becomes clear, you can capture high-quality photos.
