Cannabis microcosmos

[ilikeonions]

So, I have been throwing under the microscope pretty much every bud (and hash) i get my hands on

I have a collection of a few hundred photos of different known and unknown varieties, high and low quality flower and hash

Unfortunately my microscope is kinda lame but I am trying to get a new one asap

Anyway, this is the last bud I got, it was labeled as Banana Kush. I should be posting more stuff eventually

Some commercial hash, mid quality
My guess is; it's dry sift
Blond color and has a very heavy smoke aroma

I've always thought Cannabis plants look like underwater sea creatures and plants. Very strange and beautiful and alien looking.

Visual inspection under a microscope can be an eye opener but this hobby certainly requires a fair bit of patience & discipline to unwrap its true potential. Having to deal with commercial products is bad enough, i get an impression your initial post proves it in a most striking manner by displaying seas of decapitated trichome stems while the spherical shape of a gland normally behaves as an ideal light reflector, which makes their absence quite obvious.

Just a few weeks from Christmas it might be of some interest to get more technical details like the microscope's driver (DateStamp + Vendor/Product), because such details might tend to suggest such type of fun doesn't have to cost a thousand dollars. Also, a cheap graticule allowing measurements between 30 and 120 microns will enhance your appreciation in a very affordable way IMO, being able to tell how large those remaining glands are.

Personally i developped a habit of letting my sample bud go crispy dry in order to be able to split it open without causing too much damage, in hope i can capture the best of what it's got deep inside which was relatively preserved despite pre-package processing. The surface tells little we don't already know of tumble weed, so the golden rule here is this: to « Follow the shortest Path of Lesser Transformation »! Which means the home-grown nuggets are best when treated with respect and love.
