How to cultivate aloe vera to grow well

Aloe vera is actually a very easy plant to grow. As long as you pay attention to its following growth characteristics and create an environment suitable for its growth, you can easily grow it to overflowing the pot. Let me briefly share with you below.

First, soil

If you want aloe vera to grow big and well, soil is the key. Use loose, breathable and fertile soil with good water permeability and good air permeability, which is conducive to the growth of aloe vera. Never use sticky soil, which is not conducive to the growth of aloe vera.

It is usually made of leaf mold, garden soil, river sand, and coal slag, and base fertilizer can also be added.

Second, the temperature is suitable

The growth temperature of aloe vera is very important. The suitable temperature for aloe vera is around 15 to 25 degrees. Low or high temperature will affect its growth. High temperature will cause it to hibernate, and low temperature below zero will cause frostbite. So if you want it to grow well, you must create a suitable temperature.

Third, watering

Although aloe vera is relatively drought-resistant, it will not grow well if it is not watered properly.

For example, lack of water will cause the leaves to shrink, and the plant's own growth can only rely on consuming the moisture from the aloe leaves. However, watering should not be too much, as too moist soil can easily cause the roots to rot.

Fourth, Illumination

Aloe vera is a light-loving plant, and sufficient light is conducive to its growth. However, when it is a seedling, aloe vera needs shade at noon, but can be exposed to the sun in the morning and evening.

Aloe vera at other times, whether spring, summer, autumn or winter, likes sunlight and is not afraid of the sun in summer, so sufficient light is very helpful for the growth of aloe vera.

Fifth, fertilizer

In order to grow fast, fertilizer is very important. Aloe vera can use some organic fertilizers, such as decomposed cake fertilizer, or decomposed rice water, soybean water, and fruit peel water, which contain a lot of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium elements, which can promote the growth of aloe vera.
