Article: You need enough water to fill your jar. How much water you use will depend on how large your jar is. Keep the water boiling at this point. You can use any type of salt, such as: iodized salt, uniodized salt, sea salt or Epsom salt. If you plan on eating the salt crystals, do not use Epsom salt. Uniodized salt will give you the best-shaped crystals. If you want to make colored rock salt, add a few drops of food coloring. The more food coloring you add, the darker your crystals will become. Be careful not to get any of those extra salt grains into your jar. Some people find that placing a spoon into the jar first helps keep the jar from cracking. The string should be long enough to fit inside your jar, but not so long that it touches the bottom. About 1/2 to 1 inch (1.27 to 2.54 centimeters) from the bottom of the jar will be plenty. The string should be suspended in the water. If string won't stay down, tie a bead or paper clip to it. Again, the bottom of the string should not be touching the bottom of jar. If it is, cut the string shorter. If you can, try to keep the jar covered, such as with a box. You want the water to be able to evaporate, but you don't want any dust to get inside the jar, which can prevent the crystals from forming. The room temperature should also remain consistent. As the water evaporates, it will leave the salt behind. During this time, the salt will begin to come together and form crystals. Most of the crystals will grow on the strong, but you may also get some growing on the walls of the jar. It will take a few days for the crystals to grow. The longer you wait, the larger they will become. If you want really large crystals, you will need to use a crystal seed. Click here to learn how to grow and use a crystal seed. Once the crystals get to the size you want, carefully pull the string out and pour the water out of the jar. If you want to use these crystals to eat, carefully break them off the string. You can also use a butter knife to pry them away from the walls of the jar.

Boil some water in a saucepan. Stir some salt into the water and let it dissolve. Keep adding salt until no more will dissolve, and a few grains remain at the bottom. Take the saucepan off heat, and pour the salt water into your jar. Tie a string to a pencil. Lay the pencil across top of jar and dip the string into the water. Place the jar someplace where it won't be disturbed. Wait for the crystals to grow. Use the crystals.

If your computer's Java isn't up to date, you may run into issues while hosting your server. This is necessary to have installed on your computer before running any Java commands:  Go to the JDK webpage  Check the "Accept License Agreement" box below the "Java SE Development Kit 8u201" heading. Click the jdk-8u201-windows-x64.exe download link to the right of the "Windows x64" heading. Double-click the install file, then follow the on-screen instructions. Go to https://minecraft.net/en-us/download/server in your computer's web browser, then click the minecraft_server.1.13.2.jar link in the middle of the page. Right-click the desktop, select New, click Folder, and type in Minecraft Server before pressing ↵ Enter. Click and drag the downloaded JAR file onto the "Minecraft Server" folder, then drop it there. You can also click the server file to select it, press Ctrl+C, open the "Minecraft Server" folder, and press Ctrl+V to paste in the file. Double-click the server Java file inside of the "Minecraft Server" folder to do so. You should see several files and folders appear inside the folder. Once you see the "eula" text file appear in the "Minecraft Server" folder, do the following:  Double-click the "eula" file. Replace the "eula=false" line of text with "eula=true" Press Ctrl+S to save your changes. Close the text document. It will resume running in a pop-up window, and more files will be added to the "Minecraft Server" folder. Once you see "Done!" at the bottom of the server's main window, click the text box in the bottom-left side of the server window, then type in stop and press ↵ Enter. It's inside the "Minecraft Server" folder. Right-click the "server.properties" file, click Rename, and remove the period from the name, then press ↵ Enter. This will change it to a regular file entitled "serverproperties", making it possible to open. Double-click the file, then double-click Notepad in the resulting pop-up menu. Find the "server-ip=" line of text, then type your computer's static IP that you set earlier immediately to the right of the "=" sign. For example, if your computer's static IP address is "192.168.2.30", you would have server-ip=192.168.2.30 here. Press Ctrl+S, then exit Notepad. While you can launch your server by double-clicking the server file, doing so runs the server with a limited amount of computer memory. You can fix this problem by creating a launch file inside of the "Minecraft Server" folder:  Open Notepad (you may have to click Start {"smallUrl":"https:\/\/www.wikihow.com\/images\/0\/07\/Windowsstart.png","bigUrl":"\/images\/thumb\/0\/07\/Windowsstart.png\/30px-Windowsstart.png","smallWidth":460,"smallHeight":460,"bigWidth":"30","bigHeight":"30","licensing":"<div class=\"mw-parser-output\"><p>I edited this screenshot of a Windows icon.\n<\/p><p>License: <a rel=\"nofollow\" class=\"external text\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Public_domain\">Public Domain<\/a><br>\n<\/p><\/div>"} and type in notepad to find it). Type java -Xmx3G -Xms1G -jar server.jar into Notepad. Click File, then click Save As... in the drop-down menu. Type run.bat into the "File name" text box. Click the "Save as type" drop-down menu, then click All Files. Select the "Minecraft Server" as the save location. Click Save
