Description
The PhoneScope is an easy-to-use microscope that helps you to get the best from your indoor garden by delivering an extreme close-up view of your plants (and any pests that may be inhabiting them).
The PhoneScope increases the magnification levels on your smartphone or tablet. This allows you to take images that show details at thirty times (30x), multiplied by your phones zoom - i.e. 30 x 4 (cell phone variable zoom)= 120x. With access to crystal clear, close-up pictures, you will be able to keep record and then diagnose issues much more easily.
The PhoneScope is also great for analyzing essential oil glands. By looking at the colour of these glands, it's possible to make an assessment about a plant's level of maturity, which can be useful if you're trying to decide when to harvest.
