If you want to trim it for the sake of beauty, how can you trim it to get a good plant type? First of all, ensure the correct operation method of cutting leaves. The cutter should be fast enough. It's better to disinfect it with alcohol first, and then cut along the base of aloe leaves. The incision should be as flat as possible. Pay attention not to scratch the root. After cutting off the lower leaves, the whole plant will feel higher, not as dull as the lower leaves.
When the root of aloe is rotten, it should be carefully pruned, and the rotten part of the root should be completely cut off, without any residue, which can also leave space and nutrition for the new root. After the root system is cut off, it can be planted in the soil after the wound is dried, otherwise it is not conducive to wound recovery. For withered or sick leaves, they also need to be cut
If aloe grows too much, you can cut off the leaves. When the tender root just sprouts, you can cut off the lower part of the leaf bud, which can properly inhibit its growth speed.
After pruning, the soil for aloe potting should be of sufficient fertility to ensure adequate plant nutrients. Secondly, the basin soil's water storage capacity should be strong, the flower soil moistens the natural water to be sufficient, so as to maintain its normal life activities. In addition, the air permeability of the flower soil is also very important for its survival. The air impermeable flower soil will make the root breathing not smooth and easy to rot.
However, if the air permeability is too good, the nutrient loss will be too fast, so the sand and clay used for cultivation must be treated and made neutral before they can be used as the substrate for cultivation of aloe. In addition to the above conditions, but also to ensure that there is no water in the basin, so not too much water. In addition, it is best to place it in a place where the sun is not easy to shine
