Since Logan has been off from school the past few days we were looking for stuff to do. He decided he wanted to made a Crystal Rock Garden. Here are a few pictures and the ingredients you need to make your own.
First you need:
1/4 cup salt
1/4 cup warm water
1/4 cup bluing
1 tablespoon ammonia
Mix the salt, water, bluing, and ammonia in a bowl
Get 4 pieces of charcoal
Breat apart the smooth brikets to expose rough edges
Put them in a glass pan or a glass pie pan
Pour the mixture over the charcoal
Sprinkle food coloring over the charcoal
Set the dish in a warm place wait atleast 45 minutes before you peek.
To keep in going water it with 1 tsp of ammonia a week!!
