Education is great! However fumbling around is science is it not? Make adjustments record data, theorizing then putting to test. Trying the same thing over and over without adjusting a variable, while expecting new results seems like a waste though.

Lookin good think your on a right path, dont know what your using as it looks very different from mine(more inclusion/coated vs crystallization) but looks like you just gotta figure out shape and clarity and you be set

Definitely have a ways to go on clarity, but have been given suggestions to help achieve better clarity and facet growth. Need to put those to practice.
So far been trying to dial in color and playing with shapes and behaviors with my solutions.

You’ve made quick progress - particularly for being newer to the processing world… in a couple of weeks I’d be willing to bet that you’ll have some nice transparent and faceted colored stones. Next time I’m in Missouri we need to throw a few of those colored stones in @MWCanna’s fancy rig and sesh

multiple crystals fused together like this is called twinning. it does look cool, but it’s likely to have inclusions (impurities) stuck between the multiple crystals. Slowing down your solvent evaporation rate will help make single crystals

Looks familiar took me a while to get clarity you’ll get it now just gotta figure out the blue and green shout-out to @slickric174 we started figuring out this tech after seeing @Thewillbilly blue stones in Michigan I’ll post some of my latest stones here soon.

I’ll post a picture with some sauce on some they get nice and clear these have been rattling around in a jar that’s why they have a bit of a dull look
