Hi, it's time for another episode today. I believe everyone is familiar with aloe vera, right? Aloe vera has many functions, not only does it have antibacterial and moisturizing effects, but it can also help remove acne. When we have pimples on our face, we can apply fresh aloe vera to our face. Aloe vera can also be used as a face mask, providing moisture for our face. Aloe vera is an indispensable plant in our home. Some friends say that aloe vera is difficult to cultivate, so today, our editor will introduce the correct cultivation methods for aloe vera.
When cultivating aloe vera, the soil has a significant impact on its growth, so we can use a mixture of half-rotten leaf soil and river sand to cultivate it. The soil must be soft and well-ventilated. When cultivating it, we can place some stone-like fertilizers on the soil and water it adequately to keep the soil moist.
The growth of aloe vera cannot be separated from water, but some friends have difficulty maintaining the right amount of water when cultivating it. To prevent water leakage in the pot, we can use a plastic pot to grow aloe vera. If we choose to use a ceramic pot, we should also place a small water-retaining plate at the bottom of the pot.
Aloe vera is one of the best plants for purifying the air in our lives. It is a plant that loves the sun and grows faster in sufficient sunlight. newly planted aloe vera should not be exposed to direct sunlight for about half a month, but it should also not be grown in low sunlight. Aloe vera is sensitive to cold, and in summer, it should not be placed in an air-conditioned room. It should be grown in an environment of about 20 degrees Celsius to allow it to grow better and perform its functions.
Aloe vera requires the most water during its growth. When cultivating it in summer, we should water it every 3 to 5 days, making sure to water it frequently. In winter, when aloe vera is growing, we can water it every 7 to 9 days. If there is no heating at home, we can also reduce the watering frequency to help it survive the winter safely.

When propagating aloe vera, it is important to choose a soil that is loose and well-ventilated. Cut directly from its root and place it in another pot. After propagating, we should water it thoroughly. This makes it easier to cultivate after propagation. During the growth of the propagated aloe vera, we need to pay attention to the soil's ventilation, and watering it once a week is enough. To prevent root rot, we should make sure not to expose it to direct sunlight.
When pruning the roots of aloe vera, it is best to do it in a shaded area, then change the pot. After repotting, we must ensure good ventilation and softness for the aloe vera. At this time, we can loosen the soil in the pot. We can also place some pine cones at the bottom of the pot, which not only increases the drainage but also helps in better cultivation after the pine cones decompose. We must ensure the moisture level of the soil and not water it too frequently. Also, place it in a shaded area for 3 to 5 days before moving it to a place with sunlight and good ventilation.
