First, intercept leaves

Select the strong aloe mother plant, cut off at least 8 cm long leaves from above, and be careful when intercepting the tools, whether they are knives or scissors, otherwise they will easily lead to infection and affect the survival rate.

Second, leaf treatment

After intercepting, dry the cross section and wait patiently for him to grow a thin film, this process is about 10-15 days, the time is uncertain. Be sure to wait for the film to grow, because the film isolates the soil bacteria from the leaves, and it will rot soon if it is infected.

Third, prepare the basin soil

Because the growth of aloe needs sufficient water, but it is afraid of waterlogging, it is necessary to choose flowerpots with drainage holes, prepare nutritious soil, and mix potted soil and sand according to the proportion of 1:1.

4. Insert leaves

When ready for the above work, insert the leaves directly into the soil, with the cross section facing down, and the insertion depth is about 1/3 of the whole leaf. It is best to soak in the rooting element before insertion.

5. Late maintenance

Place the leaves in a warm and sunny place. Keep the soil slightly moist in the first month, and wait for aloe to take root and survive before watering.
