Cultivation methods and precautions of Aloe Vera

Soil: the cultivation of Aloe Vera requires the use of sandy soil with good permeability. Light: it likes the sun, and needs to receive all day light during its growth period. Temperature: it can withstand high temperature, as long as the temperature is not higher than 30 degrees, it can grow. Watering: it is a drought resistant plant, which can be watered once a week. Fertilization: it does not consume much nutrients. It can be applied once or twice a year.

I. soil

It is drought resistant, so before maintenance, it is necessary to select soil with good drainage capacity and air permeability, and it is better to use sandy soil

2. Light

It has a large demand for sunlight. If the light is not enough, it will directly affect its growth state. In its growth period, it can be irradiated all day, and in the non growth period, it can reduce the light time, and guarantee five or six hours a day.

Temperature

It is cold and heat-resistant, so in the maintenance process, do not need to adjust the temperature

IV. watering

Drought resistant plants have little demand for water. Before watering, observe the soil first. Only when the soil is completely dry can watering be needed. Watering should avoid the leaf center. If the water accumulates in the leaf center, the leaf center will rot.

Five, fertilization

Before planting, if there is base fertilizer in the soil, there is no need to apply fertilizer. If there is no base fertilizer, topdressing once or twice a year is OK

6. Precautions

Its ability of absorbing nutrients is relatively weak, so in the selection of fertilizer species, we should use fertilizer with light efficiency. Conditional flowers at home can also be made into retting by using fruits and vegetables. The fertilizer made in this way has sufficient nutrients and little stimulation, which is very consistent with the growth habit of plants like aloe vera.
