By determining a control direction of a pulling-up velocity without using a position or a width of an OSF region as an index, a subsequent pulling-up velocity profile is fed back and adjusted. A silicon single crystal ingot that does not include a COP and a dislocation cluster is grown by a CZ method, a silicon wafer is sliced from the silicon single crystal ingot, reactive ion etching is performed on the silicon wafer in an as-grown state, and a grown-in defect including silicon oxide is exposed as a protrusion on an etching surface. A growing condition in subsequent growing is fed back and adjusted on the basis of an exposed protrusion generation region. As a result, feedback with respect to a nearest batch can be performed without performing heat treatment to expose a defect.
