Physical.

Explanation:

A chemical process requires a change in the composition of a material. It may also affect the physical properties. A physical process only affects the physical state of a substance. It does not affect its chemical properties.

A crystal growing is just the increase in the size of a particular substance's form. It is not changing the chemical properties of the substance.
