    For top down pictures you can use something like this. I have a tube that I put my lens in so it can extend under water. That only makes sense if you have a DSLR. If you are using your phone then just a top down viewer will work. You can probably DIY one if your creative...

    How about using a white plastic ruler for the grow out and color up then. I found this on amazon https://www.amazon.com/Business-Source-12-Inch-Plastic-32365/dp/B004E3I3IA/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=White+plastic+ruler&qid=1602164059&sr=8-2 Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Agreed. I just got a rather large chunk from Steve the other day. His backyard setup is something to see. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
