How to grow aloe vera? Can aloe vera be grown in water?

1. Planting method

1. Prepare the soil: If you want aloe vera to grow better, choose a pot with good air permeability when planting. You can use a clay pot or a ceramic pot. The soil must also be sufficiently permeable. It is not recommended to use soil that is too sticky, otherwise it will not be able to grow normally.

2. Cutting: On the original aloe vera plant, gently cut off the newly grown side buds, starting from the bottom. After cutting, it needs to be dried, but not exposed to sunlight. In addition, the knives used for cutting must be clean, otherwise they will be infected with bacteria.

3. Planting: The final planting is very simple. Dig a small hole in the potting soil, put the side buds in, and slowly fill the soil. When it is just planted, do not rush to expose it to the sun. It needs to be kept in a semi-shaded place and do not give it fertilizer. Just add a little water and it will grow roots in about a week.

2. Can it be raised in water?

Aloe vera can be grown in water, but you need to pay attention to the quality of the water used. During the hydroponic process, clean water must be used. Do not use water with impurities, tea water, or rice washing water. Also, when growing them in water, you should remember to change the water and clean out the dirt in the container.
