Why does alum make big crystals?

It's not that only alum makes big crystals.. There are so many compounds that can make big crystals. Even Sodium Hydroxide makes very good and big crystals. For crystals you need a uniform arrangement of atoms in space. For big crystals all you need is patience. The slower is the crystallization process the bigger crystals are formed. What industries do is called seeding. They make a good concentrated solution of the compound whose crystals are needed and then they put a crystal of the same compound in the solution. The new crystals form and attach to the crystal making quick and big crystals.
