Might come in handy one day!

I use a 20X hand lens and it works well. It's left over from dendrology days at college.

Got the Phyto 27 today in the mail and will apply it tomorrow. This will be a good time to also take some photos to post but none are blooming presently. If I can get over this black spot issue I'll breathe a little easier. I once brought home an infected plant and it killed every plant in my house!
