All my crystals.
Total weight of 2620mg.

The yellowish in the bottom left corner is from the post 329.
The one above the yellow crystal is from post 331.
And the one on the right is from the post 332.

Most of the other pieces are from the right crystal from post 332.
Unfortunetly the crystal broke when yielding it.

Got a specific plan? I'd say choose a seed crystal, then redissolve the rest in ever so slightly more than just enough heptane, then suspend the seed xtal (preferably on a silica fibre) in the solution. Follow @The Traveler's advice with cling film [saran wrap, whatever you call it :p] with a pinhole or two for slow evaporation and you should get a nice result.

Or just dump in another lot of near-saturated solvent, ideally from a mini A/B, if you want something more like a geode cluster.

Any which way, I'll be excited to see the result (y)

No plan, just ruminations, and impromptu acts.
I was thinking about adding some heat to get the structure of much of what's in their to soften to aid in merging the xtals together.

I'll probably go the mini a/b route if this doesn't work out as well as hoped.

Thank you for the tips.

Well, my little idea didn't work out so well, so will be doing a mini a/b and then trying again.

Melted material would have to be kept very close to its solidification temperature to stand a chance of forming a nice crystal. This is technically challenging. You're more or less attempting zone-refining of your material, and as we know, DMT likes playing silly buggers in that game.

Hope you still have a seed crstal for the next bit!
