I can’t give you an answer, but I’m curious. Can you give us some more details? Or a link?

Yo man, I just read some of the info on their page and it is just a 30x magnification scope that shares the images you take to their cloud where they use “algorithms” to tell you what your plant needs or when it’s ready to harvest. So I mean it might be valuable to beginners. But, ever since Leafly, I personally am not a fan of ANY company that solicits free data on Cannabis under a guise of sorts.
Hey guys, I actually bit the bullet and got it. Had it since July, I think their science is legit…if their product wasnt exactly the highest grade.
The scope they sent me isnt gonna survive any kind of high impact forces, its just molded plastic with a spring clamp to hold it on, the thing blocks your smartphone screen wherever your camera happens to be. But I think they’ve got their algorithms pretty close to dialed in, of course it is dependent on the quality and location of the sample pictures you take. The science and accuracy of the quality/potency testing seems to be solid though, they have the start of something good, thats for sure.
On the Growers side of the app, since thats what actually counts, they have a team that will email you back with basic grow knowledge and suggested course of action. They have been pretty good with me so far, although their response emails are mostly of a pre-typed nature, whoever is on the clock over there will highlight the most likely cause, and I can tell based on my own observations and memory, that the team they have at Higrade is proficient in cannabis health and diagnostics. Im not sure yet if I’ll keep my subscription after the year since, but the basic quality and potency testing on your phone is definitely a major asset and learning tool either for a pure consumer/patient or as a new grower, I think your confidence in your own knowledge has to be the determining factor in how much value this system has.
In short, they still have a ways to go for me to give it an A+, but they’re on the right track for sure. This first year has definitely been worth the $60 so far, for me.
Hey friends, I have two of these scopes ,they cost me just $5 Australian dollars ( $3.50 USD) from Kmart. Obviously this is a cheap Chinese product but it works well I can see trichomes pretty well or scope for bugs, also take pics or video to my phone I can’t comment on the app as I have no experience with it but I would recommend the cheap ass scope, using it for over a year still power in its led still fully functional . With just the scope and not the app you could post your scoped pics here and ask for some real non algorithm human advice from the good folks of the DGC and save the cash you would have spent on the app or even use the money you saved on a DGC subscription .
I can put a jewelers loop on my buds and tell if they’re ready or not that’s not the issue I was wanting to know how accurate this thing can tell the percentages of THC Like they claim that just sounds a little unreal to me?
I DON’T KNOW ABOUT YOURS, BUT IT SAID THE CBD I GOT FROM INDUSTRAIL HEMP FARMS DUTCH DELIGHT HAD 17% THC!! I DON’T THINK SO
Hi all!
Been using the app for the past year or so, and I have to admit it has been really great so far. The grade testing for dry buds is nice but i do not use it very often.
The really impressive side of it is the THC% prediction using the magnified scope. It has honestly never missed by more than 1-2% from the grow company label and has helped me check and once even demand a refund from a certain dispensary for false labeling of their THC% content on the box. Really great stuff!
The grower feature is quite new to me, but so far has given simplified answers to help a newbie like me grow plants for the first time.
Took a shot with a yearly subscription and I have been very satisfied with higrade and their customer support so far. Kudos!
