QC#1 - Hot Water & Dry-Ice In a Plant Pot (Just for Fun)
Boiling hot water is poured on dry-ice, nestled inside a plant pot. "Quick Clips" are clips of random experiments in a minute or less.

I decided to try it in the plant pot to see if it would give a cool jungle mist effect. WARNING: Use of video content is at own risk. Dry ice is -78C and is very cold and poses risk for instant frost-bite on bare skin. To avoid frost-bite on bare skin, handling of dry-ice should be approached with caution and attempted with gloves or other protection. Project History & More Info: Dry ice is super cold. I wondered what would happen if I heated some water in the microwave to the boiling point, then poured it over the dry ice. It made a dramatic effect of flowing cloud and fog. Just for fun, I thought it would be cool to stick it in the bottom of our plant pot, to get a wondrous flowing fog effect around the plant stalks. Some people wonder if the vapor is harmful for plants, but in actuality, plants use CO2 to grow, and produce oxygen as a byproduct, so in my opinion, the plants love it. 2 years later the plant is still healthy and well with no ill effects from the experiment. #tkor #thekingofrandom
