It can kill bacteria and beautify the skin, and it is also edible. If you cut one piece of this flower, it can turn into 10 pots. You will have too many of them at home!

One pot turns into ten pots, this is how to propagate aloe vera

Remove the aloe vera head:

1. If your aloe vera has already produced many side buds (small aloe vera), in order not to inhibit the development of side buds, you need to perform a "beheading" operation.

2. Aim at the part of the head you want to cut, cut it with a knife, and break off 2 to 4 leaves at the bottom so that you can insert the head into the soil.

3. Place the cut aloe vera head in a ventilated place to dry and wait for the wound to heal.

4. Choose a flowerpot of suitable size and mix garden soil, leaf mold and river sand in a ratio of 2:1:1 to prepare the potting soil.

5. Insert the dried aloe vera head into the soil and water it thoroughly. Keep the soil moist without too much water. Water it once every 8 to 10 days. When watering, water slowly along the edge of the pot to avoid causing the soil to become compacted.

6. Following the above method, the aloe vera head will regain its growth vitality after being beheaded, and will soon burst out of the pot again, just like Monkey King’s head, one pot will turn into ten pots!

Using side branch cuttings:

1. Aloe vera is suitable for cuttings in spring and autumn, when it is easy to survive and overflow the pot.

2. Select strong side branches and cut them off with a knife.

3. Place the cut side branches in a cool and ventilated place to dry. Do not insert them directly into the soil. Wait until the wound heals.

4. Insert the healed aloe vera branches into the soil, water them thoroughly, and wait for them to take root and sprout.

5. Transplant the sprouted aloe vera into pots and take good care of it, and you can get many pots of aloe vera!

Learn the aloe vera care guide

1. Soil. Aloe vera likes a loose and breathable soil environment. As we mentioned above, the best soil for growing aloe vera is a mixture of two parts garden soil, one part leaf mold, and one part river sand.

To make leaf mold, we can go to a place with big trees, choose the soil under the big trees, remove the surface, and dig the leaf mold underneath.

2. Watering. Aloe vera is a drought-tolerant and water-averse plant. It is not easy to overwater it. It is generally watered every 8 to 10 days in spring. When watering, do not pour water directly on the soil in the pot. Water slowly along the edge of the pot to prevent the soil from becoming compacted.

3. Temperature. Although aloe vera is relatively resistant to high temperatures, it does not mean that it should be exposed to the sun all day. If the temperature is too high, aloe vera will enter a dormant period and stop growing. Too low a temperature can also cause frostbite on aloe vera. The growth temperature of aloe vera is generally controlled between 15 and 35 degrees.

4. Fertilization. Spring is the growing season for aloe vera, and applying fertilizer can promote its growth. Normally, we can use a mixture of rice water and clean water in a ratio of at least 1:20 to water the aloe vera, and water it once every two weeks.

5. Ventilation. Now we are about to enter summer and the temperature will get higher and higher. If good ventilation is not maintained and the soil is too moist, the aloe vera will be infected with pests and diseases and its roots will easily rot. We can put the aloe vera on the balcony and open the window occasionally for ventilation.
