Hey sorry for taking so long to respond phlux SWIM has not been around much. A slow evaporation over a day or two (or more) at room temperature. A slow cool to rt wouldn't hurt so long as supersaturation is reached although this maybe difficult to accurately titrate it wouldn't hurt but may just be unnecessary. Just DO NOT use any heat to evaporate the water and large xstals will slowly form. Play around with it.

SWIM just found out he can get bestine cheaply and locally, so he'll have to try his hand at crystal growing one of these days.

Just got some heptane from the art supply store, sometime in the next few weeks I plan to do this re-Xing with 20+ grams (I have ~14g that need cleaning up and 1.5 extractions to go). Hopefully I will have some VERY sexy pictures to share with y'all!

Phlux- Very nice tek write up. Well organized, well written. Beautiful xtals. Well done Ice House is an alter ego. The threads, postings, replys, statements, stories, and private messages made by Ice House are 100% unadulterated Bull Shit. Every aspect of the Username Ice House is pure fiction. Any likeness to SWIM or any real person is purely coincidental. The creator of Ice House does not condone or participate in any illicit activity what so ever.
