it depends on how big you want it. if u only do the process once then only a couple of hours
No, the alum grows faster.

Alum crystals turn into a solid mass of anhydrous alum
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.

To make pure crystals of alum from impure alum, start by dissolving the impure alum in warm water. Filter the solution to remove any impurities, and then cool the filtered solution slowly. As the solution cools, pure alum crystals will start to form. Carefully collect the crystals and allow them to dry to obtain pure crystals of alum.
either Aluminum or Boron are used in the synthesis of alum crystals

i like alum, and copper sulphate.
by adding acids in alum crystals

Alunite, bauxite, clay or cryolitemay be the sources of alum. Specifically, alum reduces to a fine powder as long as it remains moistened during the action of the earth's natural weathering processes on alunite. But from the powder to the highly prized crystals of alternative medicine, alum needs to undergo a heating process.Heating likewise is necessary to release alum from bauxite, clay, and cryolite. Bauxite and clay need the help of sulfuric acid and acid potassium sulfate in the process. Cryolite needs the help of calcium carbonate, to end up with alum crystals.
