In situ observation of the surface morphology of {100} face of Potassium Dihydrogen Phosphate (KDP) crystals growing in solution was made with the use of Atomic Force Microscope. The slight movement of the steps connected with regeneration of the crystal surface has been detected for very low supersaturation. The height of the elementary steps has been established.
