How to propagate aloe vera

1. Division propagation

The timing of this method is more flexible and can be carried out throughout the entire growth process of the plant from small to large. Specifically, there are three methods of operation:

①The first method is to break off its stem directly from the original plant, or to separate the new plant growing from its roots, and then plant the broken or separated plant in the soil.

②The second method is to separate the seedling from the original plant with a knife, but there is no need to take it out. Just let it stay in its original position. After half a month, it will grow its own roots and can be transplanted at this time.

③The last method is to separate it from the original plant and place it in a ventilated place to dry for a few days. After the wound has almost recovered, plant it again and add water in time.

2. Cutting propagation

This method takes advantage of one of its characteristics: roots may be produced underneath its main stem and the branches next to it. We just need to peel it off from the original plant, and then new roots will be produced.

However, this method has relatively high requirements for the environment. The temperature should be maintained between 25℃ and 28℃, and the soil temperature should be two degrees higher than the air temperature. Only at this temperature can the roots grow faster. If the temperature is too low, it will affect root growth. And the soil cannot be too wet, but the air humidity can be higher.

The specific operation method is to cut off its healthy and vigorous leaves with a knife during its growth period. After disinfection and drying, the wound can be inserted into the soil. The specific depth can be as long as it can prevent the leaves from falling.
