Macro photography 101

Can someone please take a picture of marijuana pollen ?

I hear how bugs sometimes have interlocking sexual organs, like a key - so that one beetle can only mate with another beetle of the same species.

I can't help but wonder if pollen has something similar. Some interlocking thing to help it stick to the bud. Though when they get sticky, it seems like everything sticks to them

I also wonder if there is another macro (micro ?) world below the spherical gland on resin stalk that we see in the pics. Is it like it looks, one big sticky mushroomy thingy, or is there another structure that you can see with a stronger microscope ?

Here are a few macros from my outdoor grows.

This highlights something I don't entirely understand about the Cannabis industry - when there's that much resin on the small fan leaves on the buds, why do they have to be trimmed ?

LOOK AT ALL THE MEDICINE on the little leaves, as well as on the bud.


these beautiful pictures are like Cannabis Methadone to tide me over while I smoke bud crumbs and wait for flowering to finish

Blood, the elixir of life

Blood, the elixir of life

I was thinking it's the colorful PCK. The "blood" was at myplant from red to black.

But the blood comes through the sativa. Found on pure sativas or hybrids.

... seen it few times with original haze and some other crazy sativas...

....
THE BLOOD in those plants is what is missing from most
new strains,may it just be the color,but the blood colors
have an ability to give a much more complex high.....

SEARCH for the blood colors,may it be red,golden,or black these are what
needs to be re-entered into the cannabis gene pools...

Sativas of the old days have these type bloods,with wonderful complex highs!!!!
