How to grow aloe vera? What does it do?

1. Absorb formaldehyde.

Just painted the wall, bought new furniture, or changed the floor, the smell of formaldehyde is in the face, in addition to more ventilation, you might as well raise a pot of aloe vera. According to research, a pot of normal aloe vera can absorb 90% of formaldehyde in one cubic meter, escorting your health.

2. Eat as a dish.

Plant edible aloe vera, pick fresh, wide and edible aloe vera leaves, and pick as many as you want. According to research, aloe vera can ulcerate, prevent diabetes, promote, and prevent cancer. Those who are weak should eat less.

1. Cut off the leaves.

Select the robust aloe vera mother plant, cut at least 8 cm long leaves from the top, and pay attention to the interception tool, whether it is a vertical knife or scissors, it must be clean, otherwise it is easy to cause residual chain staining and affect the survival rate.

2. Leaf treatment.

After the interception, the section is dried and patiently waited for it to grow a film, which is about 10-15 days, and the time is uncertain. Be sure to wait for it to grow a film before planting, as the film isolates the bacteria from the soil and leaves and will rot soon after infection.

3. Prepare potting soil.

Because the growth of aloe vera needs sufficient water, but is afraid of waterlogging, it is necessary to choose a pot with a key drainage hole, and prepare nutrient soil, and mix the potting soil and sand according to the ratio of 1:1.

4. Insert the leaves.

Once the above work is ready, insert the leaves directly into the soil, section side down, about one-third of the entire leaf depth. It is best to soak it in rooting before insertion.

5. Later maintenance.

Place the leaves in a warm and sunny place, keep the soil slightly moist for the previous month, and wait for the aloe vera to take root and dry before watering.

If you want to grow aloe vera, you can propagate it by cuttings in spring and autumn. Cuttings of aloe vera stems and branches in loose and breathable soil, appropriate amount of watering, can take root in the later stage. After aloe vera emerges, it needs to be given enough light and water fertilizer for its growth.

Aloe vera prefers warm climates and is suitable for growing in a warm, cool, and well-ventilated environment.

Aloe vera is a perennial evergreen herb of the lily family, and the main propagation method is propagation by cuttings. In spring and autumn, the robust shoots of the mother plant can be pruned, dried and then cut in loose and breathable soil. During the curing period, the soil should be kept moist and the temperature should be controlled at about 20 degrees, which is conducive to the rooting of cuttings in the later stage.

After the cuttings are rooted, the management needs to be strengthened in the later stage. During the curing period, the aloe vera should be watered in moderation and the soil should be kept moist. During the maintenance period, an appropriate amount of fertilizer should be applied to aloe vera, and the fertilizer is mostly nutrient solution or thin nitrogen fertilizer.

During the maintenance period, sufficient water and nutrients can promote the growth of stem and leaves of young aloe vera plants.

Maintaining aloe vera requires controlling the temperature of the environment and stabilizing the temperature between 20 and 30 degrees, which is conducive to the growth of aloe vera. During the maintenance period, it should be noted that aloe vera is very drought tolerant and needs to be watered in moderation, otherwise it will damage the root system of aloe vera. Keep aloe vera indoors, and open windows frequently to keep indoor air circulation.

Aloe vera likes light, has good negative tolerance, and is not resistant to waterlogging. Aloe vera is adaptable, not waterlogged, and can grow normally in well-drained soils. Aloe vera is thermophilic and suitable for growing in warm, cool and well-ventilated environments, and is native to the arid regions of tropical Africa and is also cultivated in Yunnan, Sichuan and individual coastal cities in China.
