The most used aloe for the mask is "Aloe vera". This kind of aloe is easy to grow, and it is not easy to get pests and diseases. The four evergreen leaves are very useful, but they grow a little bit big and can grow into "trees" after a few years. If you want aloe to grow faster, naturally you have to conform to their growth rules. If you figure out a few key points of aloe vera, this is not a problem.
First, the soil must be configured
Although there are many varieties of aloe vera, most of the aloe vera leaves are hypertrophic because they store a lot of water and nutrients. substance. The original environment of aloe vera grows in a relatively arid area, which is dry and hot, with little rain. Relatively speaking, the growth of aloe vera prefers loose granular soil. If you want to grow aloe vera well, the soil must be loose and breathable sandy soil. If you use pastoral soil, stir half of the coarse river sand particles to increase the permeability of the pot soil, and it is also conducive to the respiration of the roots of the aloe vera, and the root system will grow strong and long. The aloe vera that comes out will be more vigorous and plump
The soil is well configured, and proper top dressing and watering are essential. It is best to pour it thoroughly without water, which can easily cause root rot. Naturally, aloe vera will have many problems, such as leaf spots, germ infections, and damaged appearance. Aloe vera is relatively tolerant. It can grow thick and prosperous even without fertilizing and relying on the nutrients of the soil. However, after a long time, the nutrients in the soil are exhausted. It is necessary to add a little compound fertilizer or nitrogen fertilizer every month. Only adequate nutrients can ensure aloe vera. Grows sturdily.
Second, watering should be controlled
Aloe vera is born a kind of lazy flower, just because it does not need to be watered many times, it will grow well, and it is found that the potted soil is dry. It’s not too late to water again. Because the leaves of aloe vera have already stored a lot of water and nutrients in advance, the epidermis of the leaves will not lose too much water due to the dry air.It's really worrying. It should be noted that aloe vera is not suitable for watering in rainy weather, the water in the pot soil cannot evaporate, and the roots will not breathe smoothly, and the soil air will reduce root damage and rotten roots.
Third, the fertilizer should be thin and frequently applied
Aloe vera itself has a good ability to store nutrients, if you want to topdress aloe vera, remember to apply a small amount of fertilizer several times , It is relatively tolerant, there are too many nutrients in the soil, it is easy to burn the roots, fertilization can use compound fertilizer, or fertilizer based on nitrogen fertilizer, the flowers of aloe vera are not beautiful, therefore, there is no need to increase the application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizers. Once or twice a nitrogen-based fertilizer can make the leaves thick, full of aloe vera gel, and a pile of side buds. This is also the best state for growing aloe.
Although aloe vera grows all year round, the leaves are always green and thick, but in the winter in the north, aloe vera is also dormant in winter. In winter, aloe vera in the north must be kept warm, not too low, but many northern areas indoor They are all heated, generally above 15 degrees. Aloe can not only grow quickly, but also bloom. If the temperature is too low, do not fertilize frequently, water too much, and grow dry, even if it is not watered for a month. It's okay, the nutrients in the thick leaves are enough to supply it for growth, and the temperature in spring is high, naturally it will burst.
Fourth, the lighting of aloe vera is knowledgeable
As a plant with great ornamental and beauty value, aloe vera cannot grow without sufficient light. Although aloe vera likes light, it should not be too bright. Exposure to the sun will cause the leaves to become shriveled and red. It is a semi-shade-tolerant plant. A sunny balcony can grow very fast, and a shaded place will grow well, but when placed in a semi-shaded place, the aloe vera leaves will grow bright and green and vigorous, which is of great appreciation value.
Aloe vera wants to grow plump, straight and tall, the light position is very important, but after passing through the glass, it shines on the aloe leaves.The refraction of ultraviolet rays causes uneven illumination, so that the leaves are easily twisted and twisted. You can't find the reason, but it is actually the problem of light refraction. The aloe vera can be taken outdoors for uniform illumination in all directions. At the same time, the outdoor environment is well ventilated, so that the entire plant of aloe can grow better and the leaves are more tidy.
Among all aloe varieties, Aloe vera can be regarded as the powerful "king" among aloes. Aloe vera grows vigorously. If the water and nutrients are sufficient, the pots can be burst in a short time, and then divided into pots. After a pot of Aloe vera is grown, there is no need to buy aloe potted plants. Therefore, many places are artificially raising aloe vera. You can buy large aloe vera per catty online. There are still many aloe vera bases. There are dozens of catties of aloe vera everywhere, mainly for cosmetics or facial masks. , Used for drinks.
The plants of Aloe vera can grow very big and the leaves are very fleshy. Girls who like to use aloe vera for skin care can directly buy aloe vera leaves for skin filling or face mask, which can play a good role in whitening and moisturizing. The most important thing is that Aloe vera will be better cultivated, so the price will not be very expensive.
The growth of aloe vera is very fast, and the leaves of aloe vera can be used for skin care. It is better to raise aloe vera at home. Pick a leaf randomly, divide it into several sections, and use it separately without waste. Cutting the bottom leaf often will not affect the growth of aloe itself. On the contrary, this will promote the growth of aloe vera, and the stalk will gradually grow into old and strong Old piles, and then form an aloe tree. If you can grow a big aloe tree at home, then you will have endless aloe gel.
