I've had great success when I suspend items in the formula instead of letting them sit in the container. It allows crystals to grow all around and don't stick to anything when you remove.
Nice. Are these crystals like salt where it'd dissolve in water, or do they form like rocks? Also, do the crystals grow larger the longer they stay in, or do they have a limit
Thank you for this experiment, it answered so many questions about what could be used. I also had to turn the volume all the way up. I think your cactus form had larger crystals due to the form holding heat. Other videos trying to make large ones all seem to say to slow the cooling. Some set the mix with objects in a cooler closed overnight to slow it down and get bigger crystals. Your metal may have had lots of growth esp. on back because it's not really smooth. It has tons of micro fine lines and pitting, if you ever see some under a microscope it's amazing.
Oh cool thanks for the tip! Yeah I might try growing crystals on plaster more in the future, cause it turned out pretty cool! Also cool info about metal, some time I'll have to look at it under a microscope. It's wild how different things look at that level
Thank you SO MUCH for doing this experiment and saving me hours of messing around doing 99% of the same items! Seriously thank you ❤ I have so many ideas now and know exactly what I can and cannot do!
Thank you for saving me 3 days by doing all the experiments that I was going to do! Well thought out. I'm bummed that the shells didn't work, but I think I'll do pine cones instead!

That's a great point about the plaster cactus, due to it holding heat for longer is probably exactly why the crystals grew larger

I love your
sense of humor and creativity .
So porous ideams get crystals, good job...❤

You're welcome! It was my pleasure 😄 and good luck with your experiment!
This is super cool but I would definitely turn your audio up
Lol yeah I'm not really sure what happened there
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
I wonder if they would grow on an actual quartz crystal, to make it look like a spirit crystal?
Huh I had not thought of that but that would certainly be interesting to try!
Awsome watching the video,thank u
Interesting! Ty!
i love art science, thank you
😮 A bit late, but thank you for the experiments, it saved lots of time, also could hear your very valming voice.
Superb. Amezing. Thanx to know this.
very cool, Thank you, If you could make a druzy that would be cool.
I tried making some borax geodes in another video, that's kinda similar to a druzy, right? Lol
can't hear you and my sound is all the way up.
why are you whispering? but anyway the video is still good
Can crystals be grown on copper wire?
❤
I’m growing crystals for resin. Have you put them in resin yet?
Not yet, but that sounds super cool!
No sound
was any of your items plastic? I tried this on plastic ice ornametns and it did not work :(
what did you use to make the cactus form. \
Interesting to see the results but extremely hard to hear.
Why are you whispering? Even with the volume up the highest, I can barely hear you.
If you could talk just a little bit louder it would be nice ,and I would be very grateful, thank you very much
Really cant hear you!
I can't hear a word you are saying
THX . NO NOISE JUST TO THE POINT ..... THX
