About 10 days ago, we began the experiment that I have to admit, I thought might not turn out so well.
But VOILA! Five pieces of bonified rock candy emerged from the crystallized mason jars and various glass containers we used to grow the sugar. Let it be written that it CAN be done. There were more petrified crystals stuck to the bottoms and sides of the jars than actually grew on the string, but a quick rinse and lengthy soak proved that the jars were not ruined. Sugar melts.
The challenge now, will be to keep all five pieces of rock candy from getting ingested by the same enthusiastic rock-candy-wizard.
Possession is nine-tenths of the law.

Fun! We'll have to give it a go
Where's the chocolate?
LL...LAUGHING!
Congrats on a successful science project. :) Well done!
I Love your last quote on possession!
My kids have begged to do this over the years, I'll give it a go.
