Following the success of the crystal tree we followed the instructions and waited and waited and waited and I returned home ! and nothing happened.They were sad two boys but it was a valuable lesson !

There was great excitement as this kit was set up at Christmas. We did everything according to the instructions, but weeks later, instead of lovely crystals, we had evaporating opaque water with a semi-translucent sludge at the bottom. So shattered is our faith in chemistry, and science in general, we have since reverted to a stone-age animistic existence* and statistically-speaking, praying to rocks and fire has been more successful than growing these stupid crystals.
*We did keep our broadband account, obviously.

Of 33 boxes bought - 4 had cracked plastic containers which meant that the dissolved solution all dripped out.
The "tepid" water was not hot enough to dissolve all the fine powder.
After 5 days still no crystals have grown.
Instructions not 100% clear - does the lid stay on/off the box when left in the warm? (for example)
I'm hoping that the Beavers Cubs have had more success in growing their crystals than I have!
Bonne chance!

Great
I bought this for my neice but secretly wanted it for myself. My neice loved it. The instructions were easy to read and follow. It really worked and she found it amazing. Read more

Disappointing
The product was disappointing. A very small package. Cystals did form, but took a long time and there weren't many. Didn't get the results we'd hoped for.
