Why Grow Aloe Vera?
Aloe vera is low-maintenance, purifies air, and provides soothing gel for burns.
1. Pick the Right Pot
Use a pot with drainage holes. Terracotta pots work best for airflow and water control.
2. Choose the Right Soil
Aloe vera needs sandy, well-draining soil. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal.
3. Planting Your Aloe
Place the aloe plant in the pot, cover roots with soil, and leave 1 inch from rim.
4. Watering Basics
Water deeply but infrequently. Let the soil dry fully before watering again.
5. Sunlight & Placement
Aloe loves bright, indirect sunlight. Keep it near a sunny window or on a balcony.
6. Care & Harvest
Remove damaged leaves, don’t overwater, and harvest gel from mature leaves when needed.
