1. LightingAloe vera needs sufficient light to grow. It cannot tolerate shade and must be cultivated in a full light environment. 2. SoilAloe vera requires loose soil with strong water permeability and drainage capabilities. It does not require too much fertility in the soil. Of course, it is better if there is sufficient fertility, but it can also grow without fertility or with insufficient fertility. 3. WaterWhen caring for aloe vera, it is better to keep it dry than wet, and water it thoroughly when it is dry. Because it is a succulent plant, it has a certain ability to retain water and is relatively drought-resistant, but it is afraid of waterlogging. 4. TemperatureThe room temperature for aloe vera growth is between 5 and 25 degrees. It can tolerate short-term zero degrees, but prolonged freezing will cause cold damage. 5. Prevention and control of pests and diseasesPoor ventilation during maintenance will cause harm such as red spider mites and scale insects, as well as some diseases such as leaf spot and anthracnose. When it occurs, take preventive and control measures as soon as possible. When it just occurs, wipe off scale insects and use appropriate miticides for red spider mites. For diseases, it is recommended to spray more protective fungicides when changing seasons. 6. Notes1. It is not recommended to use a pot that is too large for aloe vera care. A suitable pot will do, because its root system is not particularly strong. Water management in a pot that is too large is difficult to control, which can easily cause water accumulation and root rot. 2. Aloe vera needs sufficient light. A dark environment will cause the leaves to grow too long, become thinner and the plant shape to become disordered. 3. When aloe vera sprouts new buds, its plant shape can be adjusted by pinching. In particular, some plants with longer branches need to be pruned to make the plant grow fuller and prevent the columns from being too disordered and falling over. |
