The reason why aloe does not grow up and its solution

Aloe only has the effect of food and beauty, but also has ornamental value, many raise it as an ornamental green plant at home, its medicinal value is also relatively high, with anti-inflammatory, analgesic, laxative and other functions. But in the planting process, it is found that it has not been growing or growing very slowly, so what is going on at this time? Let's get to know it.

1. The temperature is too low

Aloe belongs to the tropics and subtropics, so it prefers a warm environment. If the temperature is below 5 degrees for a long time, it will stop growing. If it is below 0 degrees, it will frostbite and die in severe cases. Therefore, in the process of planting, we should pay attention to the change of temperature, the suitable temperature is between 15-35 degrees, if the temperature is too low, we should take measures to increase the temperature. If it is a family culture, it can be moved to indoor or bagged for heat preservation, and a greenhouse can be set up for planting in a large area. Keep it growing.

2. Lack of light

Aloe is a kind of sun-loving action, which requires sufficient light when growing, so as to ensure its normal growth and development. in general, it is required to light more than 8 hours a day. If the light is not enough, its growth rate will be very slow. Or stop growing, and the leaves are thin. Therefore, when planting, we must keep it in sufficient light for a long time, but the newly planted seedlings should not be exposed to the sun immediately, so as not to cause withering, first let it come into contact with scattered light, after it adapts, it doesn't matter much.

3. Lack of nutrition

The growth and development of aloe needs not only nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, but also some trace elements. It is best to use fermented organic fertilizer, such as cake fertilizer, chicken manure and compost. But at low temperature, aloe vera will enter the dormant period, at this time to pay attention to the control of fertilizer and water.

4. Improper watering

The leaves of aloe are thick, and the requirement for moisture is not high, so there is no need for regular watering in normal management. if you water too much, it may cause the rotten roots of aloe, which will not only cause aloe to stop growing. over time, the whole plant will gradually die. Therefore, watering must be less, and pay attention to watering methods, can not start from its leaves, easy to lead to water residue in the back of the leaves, the phenomenon of decay, reasonable control of watering water, to maintain the normal growth of aloe.
