Aloe likes drought, although it can live without watering for a long time, but its growth will be inhibited. Next I will tell you how to water aloe.

Aloe is resistant to drought, but afraid of stagnant water, it is easy to cause aloe leaf atrophy, branch root rot and even death in the case of over-wet drainage of basin soil. In order to make aloe grow leafy and thick, timely and appropriate watering is very important. The optimum humidity of aloe is 45% 85%, and the watering of aloe is related to the season.

In winter, the growth of aloe is inhibited due to temperature, so boil water as little as possible, generally watering once every 15-20 days, if necessary, foliar spraying can be adopted to keep the basin soil properly dry, which is beneficial for aloe to survive the winter safely; in spring, when the temperature is 15-25 ℃, water is watered once in 5-7 days. High temperature in summer, large evaporation, generally 2-3 days watering once, in addition, every morning and evening can spray water to the leaves, in order to avoid hot summer sun exposure. As the climate is different in different regions, aloe watering should be flexible.

Aloe vera should be watered at the right time. Too much water will make its roots rot, and brown patches or brown rot will appear on the leaves. If the water supply is stopped at this time, it will slowly recover. If it is short of water, it will be dying and its leaves will wither.

Watering of potted aloe is related to the season.

In spring, when the temperature is 15-25 degrees Celsius, you can appropriately increase the watering times, generally watering once every 5-7 days, and take the principle of not drying and watering thoroughly, so that the basin soil can be seen dry and wet.

In summer, the temperature is high and the evaporation is large, so it needs to be watered every 2-3 days. In addition, aloe leaves can be sprayed with water every morning and evening, which can keep aloe leaves green and increase ornamental. Potted aloe in summer should also pay attention to less exposure to the hot sun, so as to reduce the loss of water in potted soil and plants.

The watering of aloe in autumn is basically similar to that in spring. 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 in a state of over-saturation for a long time, resulting in insufficient oxygen in the roots of potted aloe, difficulty in breathing and death of aloe plants.

It should be watered as little as possible when the room temperature is low in winter. Generally, it can be watered once every 15-20 days. If necessary, foliar spraying can be used to keep the basin soil properly dry, which is beneficial to aloe plants to survive the winter safely.

Watering of potted aloe is related to water quality.

The tap water in the south contains a high amount of chloride, so it is best to irrigate it with Rain Water or river water. if you must use tap water, you can prepare a large container to put the tap water into the container in advance and expose it in the sun for a few days to make the chloride volatilize. this can not only increase the water temperature, but also reduce the harm of chloride ions in the water.

Some aloe lovers use magnetized water to pour aloe, but also get better results, they can make their own magnetized water. Use a larger magnet, then use a 0.5cm latex tube, circle the magnet 20 times, fix the latex tube, slowly enter the water from one end, and release magnetized water from the other end, usually with a flow rate of 1000 grams per hour. Magnetized water can release nutrients in the matrix and increase plant physiological activity. Potted aloe lovers can try it.

The above is the whole content of the time and timing of watering aloe for you. I hope this article can help you. Please continue to follow us.
