Primarily the cooling rate of the mineral compound.The faster the rate cooling smaller the crystal size of the mineral.Consequently, large crystal specimins are derived from igneous bodies with a very slow rate of cooling.

Crystal size is dependent on factors such as temperature, rate of cooling, and concentration of solute in the solution. These factors can influence the rate of crystal growth and therefore affect the final size of the crystals formed.
The dependent variable for growing crystals is typically the size, shape, or clarity of the crystals. These characteristics are directly influenced by the independent variables in the experiment, such as temperature, concentration of the solution, or type of crystal-growing substance.
Size-dependent properties of an iron nail include the length and diameter of the nail. Size-independent properties of an iron nail include its density and magnetic properties.
Size independent property is physical properties that do not change when an object changes. Size dependent is physical properties that change when the size of an object changes.
Faster cooling rates tend to produce smaller copper sulfate crystals, as they do not have enough time to grow larger. Slower cooling rates allow for more time for crystal growth, resulting in larger crystals. The size of crystals formed is often dependent on the rate at which the solution cools.
I have tried to make a crystal before and it work here is the procedure First heat up a cup of water for about two minutes Second poor in two tea spoons of Epsom Salt Third stir with a spoon Forth put in a sunny area(near a window is fine.) Then you are done.
