Hey Orestis
When looking for the Leo Triplet. use lowest possible power to get them all in the same FOV, and don't look for 3 galaxies, NGC 3628 is really faint even in a 12" and I couldn't catch it in an 8" last year, but didn't have dark skies.
Focus on finding the 2 Messiers then relax and let the faint one appear in peripheral vision. I had trouble last year 'cause I kept looking for 3!
