I was a high school science teacher for 10 years and used to love blowing the minds of the year 7 kids( 12 year olds) showing them these sorts of fun experiments . There are lots of cool things that can be done at home ( once you get your hands on the chemicals ) . Fun video xxx
hi kind of random but i’ve got a question, do you have any tips for growing crystals? i have a few crystal growing kits, i wanted to make sure i don’t make the kit and end up with pieces im disappointed in when i go to use them so i don’t feel like it was a waste lol if you have any tips and it’s a matter of what kind of kit, i can check what they use. mostly i was wondering what the best way to sorta “maximize the return” of crystals would be 😹 and if there are any particularly sensitive components to look out for. i’ve made rock candy before but it was as a child and it’s obviously a bit different than actual chemicals for crystals lol i haven’t been able to find a very good video with real tips, just videos of the process and results /:
@@MrsAnnThropy This clip was fairly informative about the chemicals and how to grow them. Crystal kits are great .....some of the chems in this clip are easily gettable .....I'd give the kits a try ...they'll be good fun. Do the kits enable you to grow colourful crystals ? We've had many kits over the years and have grown some beautiful colourful crystals. I've watched a few good clips about growing them....keep looking and do some research online as to where/how to get the chems to try this stuff out. Have fun. xxx
Some one get the OSHA officer we need to regulate this man out of existance and so no one but my rich friends can ever profit again. Basicly what i hear every time i hear ppe
Some of these chemicals can be deadly !!! Some are very carcinogenic meaning they cause cancer . Do not handle them with your bare hands !! And make them OUTSIDE fumes are very bad to breathe .
I knew a science teacher who grew crystals in his Winnebago in the desert and he got in trouble for it. They were blue and very cool looking. You sure this is legal?
Crystals can be grown from several ingredients... Salt, Alum, Epsom salt etc. They are perfectly legal and readily available so don't believe everything you hear and do your OWN research...
the sulfat crystals u can make it with sulfuric acid, like the blue one u can make it with copper (and sulfuric acid. but remember be carefull with sulfuric acid
I am making a Superman table and I wanted to make larger clear crystals for the Fortress of Solitude. Any ideas on how to make single larger crystals? What specific mix would I need. Thanks for your help!
Are they even safe to touch, especially the last 2? I know you can paint them with 2 coats of clear fingernail polish, but still...the very last one has me worried. Guess it might be the name that is doing it. Handling them after gettin them out of the solution dangerous? Is there any harmful effects
Not very strong. The ingredients used for growing them are all different types of salts so they are quite brittle if not cared for. Plus they will dissolve if moisture gets on them unless you use some sort of preservative but that ruins the overall effect.
No, you will be left with tiny crystals unless your mold is not fully closed of and placed in a beaker twice it's size and filled with the crystal solution
Lols "HOLLOW", not hallow. When something is hallow it means it's something religiously sacred or holy. Like, "you are jot walking on hallowed ground".
awesome!! thank u so much for sharing!! loved it sooo much!! wanna know two things dear. 1. from where can I get or buy all these chemicals besides alum and borax as these two i know I get them from the grocery store, but how about other chemicals which u added over here to make crystal.. From where can I get them? 2. what is pipe cleaner & from where can I get it?
Awesome video, thank you! Why did your two copper sulfate dips come out so drastically different? Also, why the (II), is that something I need to take into account when looking to purchase the ingredients for this?
Copper (I) Chloride and Copper (II) Chloride are drastically different. Never heard of Copper (I) Sulphate though, it's usually included for stoichimetry reasons
Do 2 cách kết tinh khác nhau nên tạo ra 2 dạng tinh thể khác nhau. 1) Tạo tinh thể (tt) nhỏ: đun sôi dung dịch CuSO4.5H2O để nguội 2 giờ, sau đó đưa vào tủ lạnh ở ngăn mát ~ 3 giờ, khi lấy ra sẽ thu được nhiêu tt nhỏ và đều. 2) Tinh thể lớn: đun sôi rồi để nguội dần, không lắc, ~1 giờ rồi bỏ 1 ít tinh thể đồng sunfat vào và để yên không động đậy khoảng vài tuần sẽ thu được tinh thể lớn.
Question for the first Crystal if you leave it in for like let's say 3 weeks would it be bigger? And also if you used a different kind of crystal seed would it make a different color like an amethyst seed?
@@LiterallyYoungNeil They can get bigger and bigger over time. Makings sure to filter the solution to keep the competing crystals will help grow them faster. They will get bigger if you put them in larger and larger containers like a bucket but you have to use a lot of super saturated solution. Evaporation is how most of these crystals grow so adding new solution will also be helpful
Hi:), you only mentioned the time for growing ADP crystal which is 1-2 weeks, so how long does it take for the growth of other solutions and which one took the shortest time to grow?!
are they water "tight" ? i m planing a little model mountain with runing water inbetween crystals ! would be a shame if they disolve from that running water over time !
amazing video, can anyone buy these chemicals, or you need a certain certificate to get access to it ? like buy it on behalf of a university or school !
I would like to ask a question please. How can I create or find crystal seeds for the "alum" because you show how to grow a crystal with a pipe cleaner and not a crystal seed.
tl;dr You don't need one! Go right ahead with the pipe cleaner. Long explanation: So, how this works... When left to sit in water, these substances all will collect into "a crystal." What we're commonly used to thinking of as shiny, glittery crystals are just ways that particles stick to one another, in chains that reflect light and have these chaotic shapes. You can think of them like making a paper-clip chain -- they like to form bonds kind of like that! This is why a crystal "seed" is helpful, because it's a tiny piece of crystal from a previous batch. It will draw other pieces to it in order to make an even bigger crystal. A crystal ""seed"" is just a piece of the same crystal. There are other tiny crystal pieces floating in the water that are looking for their friends, so having a big group of crystal pieces will attract others so they can become friends, and form a bigger crystal. Some substances you don't have to do that with to get a great result. You can think of the vessel as being so full of "crystal seeds," it just needs something with a lot of surface area to grip on to. The big, fuzzy pipe cleaner works good for this.
Hi can I use a natural Quartz crystal chip if I breakdown a large Quartz rock or do I have to use shop bought crystal seeds?also where to buy the ingredients from as I can’t find a seller anywhere and I want to try this.thanks for any reply
Is it necessary to use ammonium dihydrogen orthophosphate? Or can I replace it with salt? and what coloring should I use, food coloring or regular coloring?
Lol the "seed crystal" is just the first ingredient in each misture. Like copper sulfate saturated solution, , the seed is the copper sulfate. I think he put a piece of cotton from up, with some copper sulfate on it, so the saturated solution grow crystals starting from up. Never heard sodium acetate "hot ice" experiment? Well just see it on UA-cam, the base is the same.
Wow! That deep green looks like dioptase! Nice! have grown some nice borax crystals, and alum crystals. I now have ANOTHER jar of alum solution sitting. I wanna grow a reall big one.

I want to do some real bad
There should be a warning about the nickel and cobalt salts because they are highly cancerous. Nice video though
If I had a nickel every time someone said that, I would have cancer
Yeah, nice DIY aside from giving you cancer!
Yeah. PPE is a must!
Some one get the OSHA officer we need to regulate this man out of existance and so no one but my rich friends can ever profit again. Basicly what i hear every time i hear ppe
Which one are toxic?
Okay so I just discovered you can grow crystals at home, and this. is. AWESOME.
The entire plot of Breaking Bad
yeah, I'm saving my money
I am also saving my money
Some of these chemicals can be deadly !!! Some are very carcinogenic meaning they cause cancer . Do not handle them with your bare hands !! And make them OUTSIDE fumes are very bad to breathe .
I knew a science teacher who grew crystals in his Winnebago in the desert and he got in trouble for it. They were blue and very cool looking. You sure this is legal?
Its totally fine unless someone knows about it
Maybe he was trying to sell them while containing a toxic chemical or something, apart from that, you are literally doing nothing wrong😂
@@JimmyJim199people sell dangerous ones already😭
Breaking bad 😂😂😂😂💎💎💎💨💨💨💨
Crystals can be grown from several ingredients... Salt, Alum, Epsom salt etc. They are perfectly legal and readily available so don't believe everything you hear and do your OWN research...
Yeah I definitely have those ingredients just laying around my house.
Borax and Epsom salts are very common household products...
@@keith32482I don’t have borax, I’ll find some on Amazon though
@@keith32482I don’t have both of those😭💀
Get the kit doofy
Wonderful video!! So sad my parent's wont buy me the ingredients but I just LOVE you videos!
Some of the material can be easily bought from grocery store like broax, alum
Lol
Stole some from school
the sulfat crystals u can make it with sulfuric acid, like the blue one u can make it with copper (and sulfuric acid. but remember be carefull with sulfuric acid
Yes
I am making a Superman table and I wanted to make larger clear crystals for the Fortress of Solitude. Any ideas on how to make single larger crystals? What specific mix would I need. Thanks for your help!
I would suggest copper sulfate
Could always try resin
@@jessicanavarro8169 copper sulfate is blue
did you completed it?
Honestly just buy a mold and cast it in resin, way easier and you get to decide on the exact shape
Are they even safe to touch, especially the last 2? I know you can paint them with 2 coats of clear fingernail polish, but still...the very last one has me worried. Guess it might be the name that is doing it. Handling them after gettin them out of the solution dangerous? Is there any harmful effects
The copper sulphate one is unsafe to toch with bare hands, For any other crystals search the chemical online and look at the warning labels
Where is the crystal seed making video? I have looked in your channel and can't seem to find it. If anyone could send a link it would be very helpful
What is the hardness and crystal type etc etc? Would be interesting if you could grow actual semi-precious and precious stones
Not very strong. The ingredients used for growing them are all different types of salts so they are quite brittle if not cared for. Plus they will dissolve if moisture gets on them unless you use some sort of preservative but that ruins the overall effect.
Great video
Ah yes most common things in home
😂😂😂
Could you make a video of making crystal using salt please
Can I put the seed in a mold so it will take the mold shape?
No, you will be left with tiny crystals unless your mold is not fully closed of and placed in a beaker twice it's size and filled with the crystal solution
Awesome showcase of the different crystal structures with different medias. Grabbing my borax right now.🤣
This is absolutely superb
Awesome video! Question is there or how would want to shape the crystal like a a hallow tube or any design? Is it possible as well?
it is not possible to control the exact sharp of the crystal.
however, different chemical will have different shape, which is very interesting
it depends on the crystalline structure of the salt, eg: sodium chloride forms perfect cubes.
Lols "HOLLOW", not hallow. When something is hallow it means it's something religiously sacred or holy. Like, "you are jot walking on hallowed ground".
okay, so can i use sugar as the seed and would it be edible?
no.
How long can it be kept safely??
How hard are these crystals? Do they get broken easily?
well there mohs scale is around 2 so yea they are a bit delicate
¿Me podrias decir como los hiciste exactamente ?
I like the crystals ❤
Love it soooo much!
It looks so cool I cant handle it
super cool! where would a mom acquire these ingredients and - do they all need crystal seeds? and how to buy those?
You are create the crystal seed by yourself, please help some of my previous video
Today years old and found out this is a thing! WOW! Best part: Learned it from playing Homescapes! LOL
This is very fascinating!
I started off with simple crystals like alum,sugar,salt
Hi, I wanted to ask if it’s possible to scale up the measurements in order to achieve larger crystals but I’m not sure about the apparatus used?
Yeah definitely, you really just need a larger and larger container so the crystal can fit, and enough reagant to make the crystals
And where do I get the crystal seed?
@@jurassicdocs Amazon!🤓
@@jurassicdocsMake
Useful and attractive. Thank you
copper sulfate crystals are the most beautiful things in the universe to me. the shapes and the color...i could state at them for hours 🥰
After some time they just turn white. Also they are extremely toxic and a potent carcinogen
What did you put in that liquid?
Cool stuff dude!!! I wish I could afford it to myself.
awesome!! thank u so much for sharing!! loved it sooo much!! wanna know two things dear.
1. from where can I get or buy all these chemicals besides alum and borax as these two i know I get them from the grocery store, but how about other chemicals which u added over here to make crystal.. From where can I get them? 2. what is pipe cleaner & from where can I get it?
It’s just salt and food coloring
YOOOOO THAT LOOKS EPIC BRO
Is there a limit to how big these can get?
i dont think so as long as you have patience.
Is there a way to make any of these bigger/larger? ((minus the borax crystals))
More solution - > larger crystal

The (II) is the charge of the copper, since the charge of sulfate is -2.

Hi:), you only mentioned the time for growing ADP crystal which is 1-2 weeks, so how long does it take for the growth of other solutions and which one took the shortest time to grow?!
Borax and alum
Borax is fast
But I'm doing the copper acetate one
And that one takes the longest
and can take months or days
Are these comparable to the natural ones ?
I was hoping you would mix everything together for one big BOOM 😂
How About Diamond What Can Work It ?

Hi i'm in love with ur videos, I have a question. Where can u Buy the white thing?
nice crystals grown at home
Can we make the crystal from the sodium aluminium sulphate
Does it make a difference if you grow a crydtal at the bottom of a container or in the middle
the shape of crystal you got is different
Where should we buy crystal
Not the crystals I want to make but still pretty cool
Wow great video are these safe for kids?
are they water "tight" ? i m planing a little model mountain with runing water inbetween crystals ! would be a shame if they disolve from that running water over time !

Anyone else who thinks that the color of copper(II) suflate is just beautiful?
Are they soluble if submerge to water or salt water?
The chemicals are types of salts, so yes most if not all of them are water soluble and are as brittle as table salt.
