If it is only a single aloe vera leaf, it is not recommended to plant it directly in a pot. Keep in mind that planting a single aloe vera leaf with a large cut directly is difficult to survive. As it is a succulent plant, the wound on a single aloe vera leaf is hard to heal when planted in a pot, and it is very prone to rot.
Methods for planting rootless aloe vera
For a rootless aloe vera with healthy leaves, we should clean all the bottom leaves before planting, expose the main stem, and new roots will grow from here after planting in a pot.
After removing the leaves, the aloe vera is likely to have wounds, and it is best to place the aloe vera leaves in a shaded place to dry. Once the wounds are dry and slightly contracted, it can be planted. The soil for planting aloe vera must be loose and breathable, with sandy soil being the most suitable. After potting the aloe vera, be careful not to water it to avoid root rot; it is best to water it appropriately only after it has passed the acclimatization period and started to grow roots.
