Crystals

Yesterday afternoon, our group of agents donned the lab coat again to create crystals. We mixed equal parts of ammonia, salt, water, and bluing liquid and poured them over our host sponges. As the air started to work its magic, we hypothesized on what color the crystals might be, what shape, and how long it would take to develop. We had quite a range of guesses!

Upon walking in this morning, 12 hours later, this is what I found:
