Hey everyone! I just came to here for a solution to my problem. You see I have polyblend non-sanded for grout joints that go up to 1/8. 

And basicaly. I don't have much else. I mean I have a little thing to put the mold and stuff into.

But I have spoons for mixing as well as long sticks. I have water to use too. I have a decent amount of items. But I fear not everything. So can someone please put a simple list of ingredients and instructions in the comments! It would be greatly appreciated. Also if you do have a list of things and instructions please include the way you prefer I give the ants water. Thanks!  Btw the box is like 10 inches in length and 6 inches width. (just an estimate)

This is the tutorial I followed:

I didn't have any chamois cloth, so I just made a sand- tunnel. You could also just make a water trough close to the edge of the glass.

That brand is one of my favorites, and I still use it to this day.

As Salmon said, there are a few grout tutorials on this link - http://www.formicult...of-handy-links/

 

I prefer the advanced hydration method, but the original tutorial has more ideas in it - http://www.formicult...icture +journey
