Let's grow some crystals - The final result!

avatar

This is my last update on the "grow crystals at home" kit I gave a try about 2 weeks ago. Click here to read the original post, here for the first update and here for the third one.

I believe that at this point all crystal growth has stopped so let's see what we got.

The Christmas tree looks nice and snowy like it has from day one:

The crystal growth on the second solution has been quite disappointing...

And finally let's see what hides in the mysterious blue solution!

Some blueish mud crap. LMAO. YErah, not exactly what I was expecting. If I was a kid I would be greatly disappointed...

All in all, interesting idea, disappointing results in 2/3 of experiments 🥲

It's always worth the learning experience.

And that's come cool work. I like hinting natural crystals. Found a quartz spear with a gold base.

Yeah sometimes you read the land right and get lucky too.

I wish I had put that in my wallet.

My neighbor was so pissed that first pan by someone that never been there before had found gold.

Sometimes you get good and lucky...

I'll see if I can find a little gold I got from eastern Oregon. It all adds up.

Yeah man it's not a ton. But it's all mine... One day I'll get more.

Anyone selling cryptocurrency and gold? ?

That first one is cool as hell. The second isn’t bad. I think that last one something went wrong with it. I’ve grown crystals before, my solutions were green and red though. But that solution took about two weeks before I got anything.

Why not!

The blue is definitely disappointing, especially when comparing with what was promised. From the picture you shared in the other comment, the blue crystal looked really like the best one of the three... On the other hand, a 2/3 success rate is not too bad and it could have been worse. With this kind of stuff, we are never guaranteed for a success ;)

I don't remember (I vaguely remember that you mentioned it on earlier posts), but how expensive was the set?

No idea, wife bought it a couple years ago. Probably 12 euros or something 🥲

The 12years old may be the reason why the blue failed. Who knows.... I hope life is good for the three of you. It has been a long time we didn't chat :)
