How to grow aloe vera in summer

Maintenance methods

temperature

Aloe vera needs a warm environment to grow, and the temperature cannot be too high. If the temperature exceeds the suitable range, the aloe vera will become dry. Aloe vera does not like cold environments, and the temperature should be controlled more when the weather is cold. Generally, the maximum temperature should not exceed 30 degrees. Try to keep the temperature constant at around 20 to 25 degrees, which will be conducive to its growth.

Watering

The weather is hot in summer and the temperature can easily be high, at this time aloe vera will lose a lot of water. Therefore, we must ensure sufficient water and increase the frequency of watering. If water cannot be replenished in time, the growth of aloe vera will stop.

Fertilization

Management of aloe vera in summer requires proper fertilization, because aloe vera grows most vigorously in summer and has a strong demand for nutrients at this time. If fertilization is missing, the aloe vera will develop poorly, so it is necessary to fertilize once every two weeks, using liquid fertilizer containing nutrients.

illumination

Aloe vera cannot grow without light, but in summer, the light is relatively strong, and long-term exposure can easily damage the aloe vera. At this time, we need to control the light exposure of the aloe vera. When the weather is clear, just ensure that it is exposed to light for a few hours a day.

soil

When it comes to growing aloe vera, the choice of soil is also very important. In summer or other seasons, soil management is very important. The soil in the pot needs to be replaced every year to ensure a suitable growth environment for aloe vera.

Precautions

If aloe vera lacks sunlight for a long time, the leaves will wilt and become soft, and wrinkles will appear, affecting its appearance.
