Is it better to grow aloe vera in water or soil?

If you want to hydroponically cultivate the City of Night Aloe, the thickness of its roots must be relatively high, so only plants with intact roots are suitable for hydroponic cultivation. At the same time, the hydroponic method will make the City of Night Aloe look more beautiful and clean, more ornamental, and easier to care for.

Methods and precautions for hydroponic cultivation of Aloe Vera

1. Plant treatment: Remove the soil-grown Aloe Vera from the pot, rinse the roots at the bottom, cut off the rotten leaves and dead roots, fix the Aloe Vera in a hydroponic container, add a small amount of pebbles, and ensure that the water level covers one-third of the roots.

2. Plant maintenance : The growth temperature of hydroponic Aloe Vera cannot be lower than 15 degrees. It should be placed in a bright place without direct sunlight. Change the water frequently and clean the inner wall. When changing the water, also clean the roots in time and cut off the dead branches and rotten leaves.

Methods and precautions for soil cultivation of Aloe Vera

1. Soil selection : The soil for growing Aloe Vera should be loose, ventilated and breathable. You can also mix sand and humus in a certain proportion, or directly buy professional breeding soil.

2. Temperature : Aloe Vera prefers a higher temperature growing environment. Long-term low temperature will make the leaves of Aloe Vera turn yellow or even dry up and fall off. The minimum temperature should not be lower than 15 degrees. It will enter a dormant period when the temperature is low in winter, so it is not recommended to grow Aloe Vera in winter.
