Aloe vera, also known as oil onion, Luhui, Nehui, elephant gallbladder, slave society, Lao Wei, is a new star of edible, medicinal, beauty and ornamental plants. How often do you water the potted aloe? How do you water it? Can a leaf grow alive? What are the methods of family farming? Learned from Ms. Liu, a great potted plant grower, that a leaf of aloe vera can be inserted, but you should pay attention to let the cut dry, collect water and then insert it, preferably in spring, do not water it after insertion, pour small water two days later, and slowly let it be shady tide. Never water it.

How often do potted aloe vera water?

The water demand of aloe is closely related to the seasonal change, and the watering situation of each season is as follows:

1. Spring: the temperature rises sharply, and the water evaporation of aloe leaves and soil speeds up, so it is necessary to increase the number of watering times, generally 5-7 days should be watered once.

2. Summer: the temperature is very high and the water evaporation is very large, so it should be watered every 2-3 days.

3. Autumn: the climate is similar to that in spring, and the watering frequency is also similar.

4. Winter: the temperature is very low and the water evaporation becomes slow, so the watering interval can be enlarged properly and can be watered once every 15-20 days.

No matter which season, watering aloe should follow the principle of "do not dry, do not water, dry then water thoroughly", because too much watering, aloe may have insufficient oxygen supply, difficulty breathing, and too little watering, the growth of aloe will become slow.

How to water potted aloe?

1. In spring, the watering times can be increased appropriately when the temperature is 15 ~ 25 degrees Celsius, and the principle of no dry and no watering should be adopted, so that the basin soil can be wet as well as dry.

2. With high temperature and large evaporation in summer, aloe leaves can be sprayed with water every morning and evening, which can keep aloe leaves green and increase ornamental. Potted aloe should also pay attention to less exposure to hot sun in summer to reduce the loss of water in potted soil and plants.

3. The watering of aloe in autumn is basically similar to that in spring, and sometimes it is better to water less and make up watering after the basin soil is short of water, rather than make the basin soil be in a state of over-saturation of water for a long time, resulting in insufficient oxygen in the roots of potted aloe, difficulty in breathing and death of aloe plants.

4. watering should be done as little as possible when the room temperature is low in winter, and foliar spraying can be used if necessary to keep the basin soil properly dry, which is beneficial to the safety of aloe plants through the winter.

What are the methods of raising aloe in the family?

1. Pay attention to temperature. Aloe is afraid of cold, it will stop growing at about 5 ℃ and frostbite at 0 ℃. Therefore, aloe vera grows fastest at 15-35 ℃.

2. Aloe is afraid of stagnant water. Aloe needs to grow in places with good drainage, so when planting, the soil can be mixed with some gravel to prevent soil consolidation, increase the air permeability of aloe roots and avoid obstructing root respiration.

3. Aloe needs photosynthesis. Like other plants, aloe needs sunlight to grow. First planting aloe, it is best to see the sun, do not be directly exposed to the sun at noon.

4. Black spot disease is the main factor affecting the growth of aloe, which is not only common, but also serious. The occurrence and prevalence of black spot is mainly due to heavy rain and low temperature, and the incidence is obvious in spring. In the prevention and control measures, prevention should be given priority to, and the comprehensive control methods of agricultural cultivation measures and pesticides should be adopted to clear ditches and reduce soil moisture, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing harm.

5. Attention should be paid to watering in summer. Aloe likes light and heat resistance, but it should also prevent drought when the summer temperature is high and precipitation is low. Proper watering can make aloe grow rapidly. Watering can not be excessive, usually once every 5-10 days.

6. Apply fertilizer with aloe. Fertilizer is indispensable to any plant. Aloe needs not only nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, but also some trace elements. In order to ensure that aloe is a green natural plant, try to use fermented organic fertilizer, cake fertilizer, chicken manure, compost can, maggot worm manure is more suitable for growing aloe.

7. Seedling propagation. The seedling propagation of aloe is mainly asexual propagation, and the propagation methods are split propagation and cutting propagation, and the breeding season should be carried out in spring and autumn. Ramet propagation means that when the tillering seedlings of aloe vera are more than 5 leaves, carefully pick up the seedlings, try not to damage the root system, and transplant to other places or flowerpots. Cuttage propagation refers to cutting aloe side branches about 15 cm, putting them in a ventilation and shade place for two or three days, when the incision shrinks dry, inserting them into other places or flowerpots, and then shading for another month, try not to water during this period, when the cuttings begin to grow, and then move to the place where they are placed, and then start watering. After many years of growth of the old aloe plant, after growing to a certain height, it is easy to appear lodging phenomenon, affecting the ornamental, so cut off at the leaf base of 7 cm, using the planting method, the old aloe plant can be rejuvenated.
