I. brief introduction of aloe

Aloe, native to the Mediterranean and Africa, is a perennial herb and succulent plant of Cyperaceae. According to textual research, there are more than 300 wild varieties of aloe, mainly distributed in Africa and other places. Aloe vera has short stems; leaves evergreen, fleshy and succulent, margins sparsely spiny, leaves long and pointed, up to 15 to 40 cm long, 1.5 cm thick, grass green; summer and autumn flowering, racemes drawn from leaves, up to 60 to 90 cm, in which inflorescences up to 20 cm long, with sparsely arranged yellow florets; capsule seeds are numerous, and there are great differences in shape among different varieties.

2. Culture methods and matters needing attention of aloe vera

Aloe can not grow without soil, water, light and fertilizer, so we should pay attention to the following breeding methods and matters needing attention:

1. Soil: aloe vera does not have very high requirements for soil. Generally, loose soil with good air permeability, good drainage performance and not easy caking is selected. Soil with poor drainage permeability will lead to rotten root necrosis. However, excessive sandy soil often causes the loss of water and nutrients, resulting in poor growth of aloe.

2, flowerpot: the flowerpot for cultivating aloe can not be too small or too large, choose the right one according to the size of the plant, there must be some drainage holes at the bottom of the flowerpot to facilitate the breathing of aloe roots, it is recommended not to use porcelain pots or plastic pots, the air permeability is poor.

3. Temperature: aloe is afraid of cold. The most suitable temperature for growth is 15 ℃ ~ 35 ℃ and the humidity is 45%-85%. If it is less than 0 ℃, it will frostbite and enter the dormant period at about 5 ℃. Therefore, it is necessary to control the temperature, pay attention to shade in summer and keep warm in winter. It is recommended that you plant aloe vera in spring or summer. If you need to change the pot midway, it is recommended that you try not to hurt the roots in April and May.

4, moisture: aloe is most afraid of stagnant water, do not give it too much water during maintenance, it is easy for leaves to shrink, branches and roots rot or even die in rainy and wet seasons or in the case of poor drainage.

5. Watering: aloe can not be watered too much, too much will lead to root decay. Watering should be controlled after autumn. Spraying method can be adopted. It is recommended to water once a week in spring and autumn, once every three days in summer and reduce sunlight. Once a month in winter.

6. Lighting: aloe vera not only pays attention to keep warm in autumn and winter, but also needs sufficient light environment for growth. Indoor potted aloe vera can be put in a place away from the wind and the sun. If the temperature is low, it can be covered with a transparent plastic bag, after 9: 00 in the morning. 3: 00 p. M. before the sun. (note: aloe seedlings should be kept in a cool place for a period of time before lighting.)

7. Fertilization: it is best to choose organic fertilizer for aloe fertilizer. During the peak growth period, nutrients in the soil are constantly absorbed by the plant. If not topdressing in time, the growth of aloe vera will be affected. Fertilizing should not be excessive at one time, and the fertilizer should be cleaned in time after getting the leaves.

8. Loosening soil: strengthening management during planting, loosening soil and weeding many times can promote soil ventilation, accelerate the transformation of soil nutrients, promote the development of root system, improve disease resistance and achieve rapid and healthy growth.

9, flowering: only the stem diameter of 3cm or above, the whole plant up to 40cm meters or so of aloe vera will bloom red flowers, generally just started to raise aloe is certainly impossible to blossom, want to let the aloe at home blossom quickly, we must ensure that the appropriate temperature conditions and light conditions, maintenance temperature conditions can not be less than 7 degrees, and it is best to its open-air maintenance.

10. Picking: aloe vera that has been planted for about three years can be picked. The leaves that have been planted for more than three years have higher medicinal value. When picking leaves, you generally start from the lower part of the plant, do not harm the plant, and keep the middle body intact.

Third, how to save the root rot of aloe?

1, root rot reasons: aloe root rot is mainly caused by two reasons, one is too much watering, stagnant water leads to root rot, and the other is bacteria causing rot.

2. Treatment method

Cut off all the rotten parts of aloe with a knife, be sure to clean up the rotten parts, then apply plant ash to the wound for disinfection, put it in a cool, dry place for 3-5 days, and wait for the wound to heal and put it in the new soil. Aloe vera should not be inserted too deep, and when the roots grow, the soil will be added, and new roots will take place in about a month.

In addition to paying attention to the above points, we should also see whether the soil is suitable, such as changing the soil with good permeability and good drainage in time.

Fourth, does aloe dispel acne and freckle?

Aloe has a little auxiliary effect on freckle, but has no great effect on acne and acne imprint desalination. Aloe contains minerals, amino acids, vitamins and a variety of other nutrients, including mucopolysaccharides, fatty acids, anthraquinones and flavonoids, sugars, active enzymes and so on. among them, the polysaccharides in aloe juice have a certain effect on removing skin pigment. However, there are many varieties of aloe and not all of them have medicinal uses. You must distinguish them well and do skin allergy tests before skin care, otherwise they will cause skin sensitivity.

Conclusion: through the introduction of this article, we must all know the breeding methods and matters needing attention of aloe vera. Usually, as long as we master the correct watering method, fertilize properly and give sufficient sunshine, aloe vera will grow very well and even bloom ahead of time.
