Can you apply pictures of your reaction mixture?
Have you added CuO as said in tutorial?
If you read this tutorial, you should know that you have to heat and stir reaction mixture not less than 15h (not 6).
Have you got such suspension in your reaction mixture?
P.S. If you punctuate your text, it will be much easier and convenient to read.

No I didn't look like this ..I know I have to heat and stir for 15 hrs and also I did stir it for 17+ hours but what I was saying is in the start when I started everything the Rm looked same as in VEDIO but after 6 hours passed when I came to check the colour of RM bacame light brown unlike in the VEDIO also after 17+ hours the mixture didn't look like the one in VEDIO

1) first I added 100 gram of 4 mp in a 3000ml triple neck flask equipped with overhead stirrer and reflux condenser .third neck was closed . in water bath which was approx 60-65°c
2)second I added IPA 1000 ml .
3) third I added 54 grams of CUO in small portions to let it mix properly(took about 30 min)
4)then I added GRANULAR IODINE 130 gram in several portions (in about 30 min time)
5) then I let it all stir at 60-70° for about 20 hours the colour became light then I panicked and thought the iodine vapourised so I added 30 more grams of iodine .then let it stir again for 7 hours .total 27+ hours
6) then I switched everything off and let the mixture settle then decanted it in a flask (some copper came along in the RM ) I covered it and left it for 10 hours at room temperature then came and saw iodoketone forming on the black copper.
7) iodoketone was forming around the copper particles .I was worried
8) Marvin suggested to heat the mass to melt the ketone without boiling so I did it same .heated the whole mass with copper to 40-50 degrees all the iodoketone melted in about 15-20 minutes .then let it settle .then decanted the RM carefully without letting any copper in .colled the RM to room temperature iodoketone started forming again then I covered and kept in freezer in 12 hours there was more iodoketone than before .
