Depends upon what type of mineral is crystallizing. For some types of minerals (aragonite in particular), their growth is mediated by photosynthetic algae. Obviously, they would grow faster when exposed to light. Otherwise, the algae die and the crystals are left to grow inorganically, which may mean not at all.
