Here Is How to Grow Aloe Vera Plant:
Aloe Vera is a succulent plant. In other words, it is very easy to grow. It is easily found in any health store or local garden store. You can also grow a new plant by transplanting the pups of a mature plant.
In order to grow your own Aloe Vera Plant, you will need the same type of soil as most cacti. You should get premixed cacti soil mix or mix 1 part coir, 5 parts potting soil and 2 parts pumice; or 1 part sand and 1 part soil. Next, you should place the soil in a well-draining pot.
Although it is recommended to keep this plant indoors, it could survive outdoors as well. You should not allow it to sit in the rain. Also, during cool months, the plant should be moved inside. During these months, the plant requires less frequent watering. It is recommended to water it once you notice that the top 3 inches of soil are dry.
Do not forget to mention that you should wait for 6 months before watering your newly planted Aloe.
Aloe Vera plants that have reached the age of 5 years old are the most beneficial. They provide the most powerful health benefits!
