"A crystal has a specific, ordered pattern, and it’s quite unlikely that a disorganized soup of molecules will suddenly reach that state. But once the molecules start to organize themselves, a process called nucleation, they act as a template for others to get in line--and crystallization takes off. Grooves and pits in glass surfaces help crystals grow faster, because they act as nucleation hot spots. Chemists have known why for decades: The interface between crystal and liquid is unstable, and grooves minimize this interface." - bcultral from Bookmarklet
