Now that you know, you can make it your special gemstone and fortunately they're easy to make right at home!
If you are a collector, you understand how precious any gem is, including rock crystals.
This gem, in particular, is a transparent variant of the silica mineral quartz frequently mistaken as lead crystal glass.
Most rock crystals are naturally-occurring, but thanks to science, you can grow some in your home.
The primary use of rock crystals can go from ornamental to spiritual. They easily stand out from other stones, and it is pretty safe to allude that they are one of the most artistic gems on earth.
Therefore, it comes as no surprise that they are used in making jewelry and as home décor. Nevertheless, some will argue that they are the most underrated gemstones.
We will let you be the judge of that. Additionally, some use these rock crystals as a healing stone to channel energy levels to achieve a peaceful mind and revitalize the physical body.
Copper sulfate is popularly used as an herbicide, fungicide or algaecide, among other uses.

However, copper sulfate has another extra-ordinary use: growing beautiful rock crystals.
Typically, Copper sulfate crystals have a beautiful oceanic blue color. Also, they relatively grow quickly and can result in pretty large crystals.
The chemical compound is ubiquitous, thus making the entire process inexpensive.
The process is pretty minimalist and straightforward. The materials include:
Step one: Boil Your Water.
The first step is heating your water until it boils. This allows the crystals to boil faster and accelerate the chemical process.
Step two: Saturate the Copper Crystals.
Add the copper sulfate into the boiling water and stir until it can no longer dissolve. The solution should be a clear blue, color-sometimes with hints of purple.
Step three: Place the Solution in an Undisturbed Location
Let the jar of saturated solution sit in a room or corner location as long as it shall remain untouched for hours but can easily be observed.
After some time, you should notice crystals forming at the bottom or on the walls of the glass jar. You can proceed to pick out the perfectly formed crystals.
They say good things take time, and so do beautiful crystals. You will need to be more patient if you want larger crystals.
Typically, the process should take a while as the solution evaporates slowly and the excess crystals combine to form gorgeous single pieces.
Throughout the period, the temperature changes should be as minimal as possible since that will likely disrupt the formation.
Therefore, it is advisable to place the jar of saturated solution in a room exhibiting negligible temperature shifts.
As your crystals grow, you may also notice many tiny crystals forming.
To aid the process, you can remove the larger crystals from the solution, decant the solution into another jar and place your more giant crystals back within the shortest period to avoid any interruptions in growth.
It is crucial to remove the smaller crystals as they are likely to compete with the larger ones.
As easy as the process is, it is vital to prioritize safety. Copper sulfate is a chemical and can have side mild to severe side effects.
Always have your protective gear on, especially safety gloves, whenever you want to touch the copper sulfate solution.
You can get your own copper sulfate crystals from our online shop, and we will have the product shipped to you within no time!

On one hand, proponents of tire planters suggest that reusing old tires as containers for plants, benefits our environment.
This is because disposing of unwanted tires isn't as easy as tossing them in your dumpster.
Tire material is non-biodegradable and flammable. It's dangerous to the environment to have them accumulate in a landfill, but tire planters create a new use for them.
Meanwhile, those against tire planters maintain that the chemicals within the tire materials may leach into your plants and soil.
This can be especially problematic if you decide to grow edible plants.
The last thing you want to do is ingest harmful chemicals!
Some argue that the leaching that occurs happens gradually and is only dangerous after decades of having the tires in contact with your plants.
If this is worrisome to you, a great alternative is to plant non-edibles in the tires and distance any food plants from the soil being used within the tire planters.
With that said, it's entirely up to you to decide whether you'd like to create a tire planter. If your answer is yes, we've got you covered with the instructions below.
How to Make a Tire Planter
Materials:
Optional:
Instructions:
1. With a sponge, scrub your tire clean with soap and water.
2. Allow your tire to air dry or dry it manually with a towel.
3. *Optional* If painting your tire, place the dry tire on a tarp or cloth to protect the surface of the area you are painting the tire on.
4. *Optional* Take your paint brush and paint the outside of your tire using durable, non-toxic paint.
5. *Optional* Allow the painted tire to dry.
6. Place your tire where you'd like your plants to be. Keep in mind how much sun exposure your plants need.
7. Fill the tire with soil until it reaches the surface of the tire.
8. For one plant, dig a hole wide/deep enough to fit your plant and it's roots. For multiple plants, make sure each hole is wide/deep enough to fit your plants, as well as spaced apart enough to allow air flow between your plants.
9. Place your plants within the holes inside the tire. Make sure they're planted snug enough to withstand the outdoor elements and still allow water to absorb through the soil and into the roots.
10. Enjoy your new planter!
Don't forget to supplement your tire planter's soil with our nutrient-rich fertilizers that you can shop below.

It is a very scary experience when your home is infested with bed bugs. The pests can give you and your family sleepless nights.
Bugs appear all over especially during the summer season. You have to work hard to protect your home and children in particular.
You will need to employ effective methods to eliminate them completely and protect your house from future infestation.
Sulfur is one of the best and valuable pesticides that you can use to get rid of bed bugs in your home.
It is safer than other commercial pesticides, and it does not cause harm to other beneficial insects like the honeybee.
It also animates and kills repels insects. You can use both lime and elemental sulfur to create your homemade insecticide to kill bedbugs.
You can use it in various forms some of which include;
This type of sulfur is destructive to all forms of life. It is the most dependable insecticide. It is a dry gas which is very poisonous to pests and insects. The dry sulfur dioxide, however, has no germicidal value.
Fumigation of this gas may, however, damage property during dry days. It destroys metals and fabrics when moist.
To prevent this, before fumigating, cover the assets that cannot be removed from the room by covering them with paper or coating with petroleum jelly.
To produce sulfur dioxide, you need to burn sulfur or liberate the liquefied sulfur dioxide.
This sulfur in its dry powdered form can be used to kill bed bugs.
You can apply the organic yellow sulfur powder by several means, and the simplest method is by sprinkling the powder in the area of infestation.
You can also combine the organic yellow sulfur powder with other insecticides like resin wash, kerosene emulsion or soap wash to make it more efficient.
You should first mix it into a paste and add it to a spray tank in a proportion of about 2 pounds to 50 gallons.
This is applied just in the same way as the sulfur flower. All you have to do is implement the ointment in the infested area and leave it for some time.
Sulfur has a low toxicity to people, but it is wise to take safety measures when dealing with it. It could cause skin and eye irritation if not handled with care.
Always ensure to put on safety clothing like rubber gloves, dust mask, and goggles. Keep children and pets out of reach until the applied area has been watered and allowed to dry.
Make sure to choose the right type of sulfur you need. For example, if you want to use it in conjunction with oil spray, lime sulfur is the best.
With elementary sulfur, you will have to wait for at least a month after application of the oil before using the spray thus chose wisely.

Axes, picks, chainsaws and pry bars are the tools required, along with at least a whole day of hard work.
Epsom salt is the best substance to remove a tree stump if it is in your garden or lawn, since it enhances the quality of your soil.
Using chemical applications makes stump removal an easier yet slower process.
Why Epsom Salt?
After a tree has been cut down or fallen, the root network will continue to feed the stump. A living stump will not rot and may grow new shoots.
Epsom salt (or magnesium sulfate) is hygroscopic, which means the crystals absorb water.
With enough quantity added, Epsom salt pulls moisture from the wood, which then kills the tree.
There are many other products that could be applied to a tree stump to kill it, but Epsom salt has advantages over other stump removal chemicals.
Rock salt or caustic lye would dry out the wood, but high sodium levels could make it difficult to replant after the stump has been removed.
Commercial stump removal preparations contain potassium nitrate, which helps decomposition but does little to kill a living stump.
Epsom salt kills the stump while improving the surrounding soil by adding magnesium and sulfur; plants require both for chlorophyll production.
How to Apply Epsom Salt for Stump Removal
1. Drill holes on the top of the stump with a one-inch spade bit. The number of holes you will drill depends on how large the stump top is.
2. Start your holes three inches from the perimeter of the stump and keep them three to four inches apart until you run out of room.
3. Drill the holes as deep as you can, at least eight inches into the base of the stump.
4. Pour 100 percent Epsom salt into the holes and add enough water to moisten the salt. This moisture will carry the salts into the cells of the tree, drying them out.
5. Then use a mattock or grub hoe to uncover as much as the root structure as you can.
6. Pour a thick layer of Epsom salt on all exposed roots to prevent to roots from carrying moisture and nutrients to the base of the tree.
Larger stumps may take a month or two to die, so plan to reapply the Epsom salt every three weeks. Brittle, dark wood is dead; while soft, light wood will require another application of Epsom salt.
A dead stump will decompose naturally, though you can speed the process by adding a high nitrogen fertilizer, like our organic Blood Meal fertilizer, to the drilled holes and around the base of the stump.

]]>The Journal of the American College of Nutrition says that at least 68% of us are magnesium deficient leading to a host of health problems — including insomnia, depression, and fatigue.
Topically-applied magnesium oil is perhaps the best tool we’ve got to combat that deficiency and improve our health and wellness.
While it’s true you can buy magnesium oil already made, it’s far less expensive to make magnesium oil yourself (and surprisingly easy)!
What is Magnesium Oil?
First, I should clarify: magnesium oil is not an oil. It’s simply called magnesium “oil” because of the oily feel of magnesium chloride suspended in water.
(Please note that this is not the same magnesium found in Epsom salt. Epsom salt is magnesium sulfate. This is magnesium chloride and is better suited for transdermal absorption.)
You’ll usually apply magnesium oil to your skin with a spray bottle, then rub it in and let your skin absorb it for the next half hour or so.
Why Use Magnesium Oil?
Here are a few reasons why:
1. Most of us have a magnesium deficiency. Where we used to get magnesium from our soil and water supplies, we’ve now depleted our soil and scoured our water supply clean of trace minerals.
So, we can either make the extra effort to eat more magnesium-rich foods like nuts, grains, and seeds, or we can supplement with magnesium.
2. Magnesium is more easily absorbed transdermally through the skin than it is internally.
3. Magnesium oil is a useful, inexpensive, and simple way to apply magnesium to your skin.
Ingredients:
- ¼ cup to ½ cup of Magnesium Chloride Flakes
- ½ cup of water
- Jar or spray bottle to store the mixture
Directions:
Note: You may use the magnesium oil several times per day, using anywhere from 10 to 20 sprays spaced throughout.
Note: For optimal absorption spray/apply the magnesium oil to your stomach area, arms and legs.
Note: If you find that the application of magnesium oil tingles or stings, you can dilute the mixture by adding more water.

]]>1. Weigh your gold smelt.
For every ounce of gold, you will need a container with a 300-milliliter capacity.
So, if you're refining 5 ounces of gold, you will need a 1500-milliliter container or about 1 ½ quarts.
2. Add 30 milliliters of nitric acid for every ounce of gold.
So, if you're refining 5 ounces of gold, you would need to add 150 milliliters to the container. Allow the gold to sit in the nitric acid for 30 to 45 minutes.
3. Add 120 milliliters of hydrochloric acid for every ounce of gold in the container.
For 5 ounces of gold, that would be 600 milliliters of HCL. The addition of hydrochloric acid turns the mixture brown and can result in fumes.
As the chemicals react and heat up, the gold will dissolve. Let the mixture sit for 1 to 8 hours to cool off.
4. Line the funnel with filter paper and pour the acid through the filter and into another, larger container, stopping before any particles are poured off.
The filtered acid should be green and clear. If the acid is cloudy, filter it again.
5. Boil 1 quart of water. Remove from heat and add 1 pound of urea.
Slowly add the urea mixture to the acid.
This will cause an acid/base reaction, much like the old school volcano using baking soda and vinegar.
The acid will foam up, so don't pour too quickly or you'll have a huge mess on your hands.
When the mixture stops foaming, stop pouring urea in. All the nitric acid has been neutralized.
6. Boil the second quart of water.
Remove it from the heat and stir in Storm. For every ounce of gold, add 1 ounce of Storm precipitant.
So, for 5 ounces of gold, add 5 ounces of Storm. (If using a different gold precipitant, follow the package directions).
Slowly stir this solution into the acid. The solution will turn a muddy brown color and emit a strong odor.
7. Wait for 30 to 45 minutes. Check the acid for dissolved gold.
To do this, take the end of the stirring rod and insert it into the acid.
Remove the rod and touch it to a paper towel, creating a wet spot. Add one drop of gold detection liquid to the spot on the paper towel.
If the spot turns dark, there is still gold in the acid. If you see this, give the Storm more time to work or add more precipitant to the acid.
8. When the acid has separated into layers, with a clear amber top and a muddy brown bottom, pour off the top layer into another container.
Be careful not to pour off any of the mud at the bottom as the mud is your gold.
9. Add water to the mud when the acid has bee poured off.
Stir vigorously and allow the mud to settle. Repeat, rinsing the mud with water 4 times.
10. Rinse the mud with aqua ammonia.
When the aqua ammonia is added, white vapors will form as the remaining acids are neutralized.
11. Rinse the gold mud a final time using distilled water.
When it settles, pour off the water and scrape the mud into a heatproof bowl.
Place the bowl on a hot plate and allow it to dry.
When the dry mud is melted and allowed to reform it will take on the appearance of metal and will be 99.95 percent pure.
