User questions & answers

Question:	One review complained that this needs to connect to a computer, however I do not see that in the description. Can this be clarified... batteries only
Answer:	The crystals do not need light to grow so you could place them inside a cabinet if that is easier. If you choose this method, you may want to leave them an extra couple days. (we leave ours for 30 days resulting in 1 1/2"-2" points)
Question:	Is this too young for a 2.5 year old
Answer:	If you have additional powder, you should be able to grow an additional crystal reusing the seed rock.
Question:	Does this require a computer download of any kind
Answer:	Our Crystals can be handled once they are grown. We do recommend washing hands after contact. For more information please contact us directly at [email protected]
Question:	Is this appropriate for a 1 year old
Answer:	Left undisturbed, you should see crystals begin to form within a day or two and full growth between 7-21 days depending on location and temperature.
