Aloe leaves can be inserted alive. However, it is less likely to grow roots. Because there is a lot of water in its leaves, if it propagates in the way of leaf cutting, it is likely to rot before the long roots. Only by taking the right way can we improve its rooting probability.
(1) choose the robust leaves, which are about eight centimeters long. Weak aloe is not easy to survive.
(2) after selecting the leaves, prepare a sharp knife. It can only be used after disinfection, otherwise leaves are easy to be infected with toxic bacteria. Pay attention to oblique cutting and control the angle.
(3) after cutting, it cannot be inserted into the soil immediately. Put them in a cool and airy place for about two weeks. In this period of time, pay attention to the prevention of bacteria, or perishable. Can use some good antibacterial substances, such as cinnamon, etc.
(4) pay attention to the selection of containers. Aloe does not like water, drainage must be better. There should be drainage holes at the bottom, and they should be large enough.
(5) select specific soil. It can also be prepared by yourself without adding some fine sand. Add some broken tiles to the bottom of the basin.
(6) insert the leaves down into the soil, about one third of them.
(7) after insertion, place it in a place with good ventilation and light. Keep the soil moist, but not water.
