Magnesium sulfate crystals, clingin’ to a petri dish. Chillin’.
Another quick lab snap. These are some nice crystals I grew. I was washing an earlier, less photogenic crystal garden with alcohol, and catching the runoff in a petri dish. I let it evaporate and was greeted with this happy little accident! The crystals are magnesium sulfate, available as Epsom salt at most pharmacies.

Looks like a low molecular weight amine kinda huh?
I haven’t got much experience with amines, I’m afraid! I’d have thought that the lower MW ones would be liquids though (and stinky!)
