We made our very first crystal! Using this kit, we made a stalagmite. A purple stalagmite. Our first attempt was a huuuuge smelly disaster. (I don't like to admit this, but I am pretty impossible when it comes to following simple directions. Especially the direction of "keep an eye on the pan while the solution heats". Almost every time a recipe calls for me to watch a pot, I think I don't really have to.) Anyway, enough about me. The second attempt was a gorgeous success. We were able to grow a stalagmite in minutes, no millions of years necessary for us.
