First of all, borax (sodium tetraborate decahydrate) in water produces boric acid and raises the pH. So the studies on boron toxicity that refer to boric acid are absolutely relevant for Borax as well.
Borax is very soluble in hot water-so lots and lots of powder will dissolve. It is not very soluble in cold water. So as the solution cools down, the borax wants to come out of solution. Crystals start growing by a process called nucleation.
