Can frozen aloe vera survive?A netizen asked : Can aloe vera survive after being frostbitten after the New Year? There are many varieties of aloe vera, which are easy to grow and bloom easily. It is a familiar and beloved foliage plant. At the same time, it is also a succulent plant, and the leaves are rich in water and aloe vera gel. Due to its thick flesh, it is very easy to frostbite in the low temperature in winter and the water accumulation in the pot. In fact, whether aloe vera can recover after being frostbitten for a year mainly depends on whether the rhizome is frostbitten: Frostbite on potted plants is also divided into different levels. Mild frostbite usually only occurs on the leaf tips or the outermost leaves, without damaging the roots. Clean off the frostbitten leaves and place them in a warm diffuse light environment to allow them to recover naturally. Generally, after the spring weather warms up, the plant can continue to grow side shoots and regrow . If the plant is severely frostbitten, the leaves will become transparent and water-soluble, and the leaves will become almost completely soft and the rhizomes will also become transparent. In this case, there is basically no need to remedy the situation. Can aloe vera leaves survive if they are frozen soft in winter?Aloe vera has poor cold tolerance and will be frozen soft if it is in a low temperature environment for a long time. After discovering it, cut off the frostbitten leaves as soon as possible and apply wood ash on the wound to avoid bacterial infection . After pruning, we need to move it to a warm environment, preferably with a temperature above 10 degrees . In such an environment, the wound will heal slowly. When the temperature stabilizes, it will resume growth. Tips for daily care of aloe vera in winter to prevent frostbite① Loose, fertile and well-breathable soil is suitable for potted aloe vera. Before planting, you can add some organic fertilizer or slow-release fertilizer as base fertilizer, which is conducive to rapid growth and the growth of more side buds. ②Aloe vera likes sunlight and avoids waterlogging. Maintaining sufficient light during the growing period is conducive to keeping the plant compact and preventing excessive growth. ③ In summer, you can provide appropriate shade to prevent the tips from drying out and the edges from curling due to excessive exposure to the sun. In winter, water sparingly and place the plant in a warm and ventilated place with scattered sunlight to overwinter. ④ Aloe vera is drought-resistant and does not require frequent watering. Waterlogging can cause excessive growth and root rot. In spring, autumn, and early winter, you can adjust the soil in the pot and apply thin fertilizer depending on how dry or wet it is. |
