In Crystal Growth Lab, we made a solution by mix the mineral, then replaced this solution to the window, to let them grow the crystal by the 10 days. In each day, we need to measured the crystal, and to observed the crystal, like: color, shape. That help us to see how they growth, and wrote down into the data.
