1. Aloe cutting culture method 1. Choose aloe to cut leaves.
The first thing to pay attention to is to choose the most suitable aloe leaves. We need to choose a robust aloe vera and the strongest leaves. Note that in order to increase the success rate of cutting, we must choose leaves over 8 cm. Take a sterilized knife and cut it off.
2. Dry the sliced aloe in the shade.
The freshly cut aloe leaves cannot be inserted into the soil for cutting. Be sure to dry the incision in the shade before cutting. We need to put aloe leaves in a warm place at 25℃ and wait in the shade for time to dry the sliced noodles slowly. When you see a film growing on the cut surface, it is finished. This time depends on the environment. The environment is clean and the temperature is suitable for 5 days. If the environment is bad, it may be half a month.
3. Land
The selection of flowerpot and soil is the most important step in aloe cutting culture. The bottom of the flowerpot needs a hole to be permeable to water. Choose loose and fertile soil, or buy special soil for succulents, but we need to spread a layer of gravel at the bottom of the flowerpot to avoid blocking the drainage holes at the bottom.
Step 4 cut
Finally, just insert the aloe leaves that have been prepared for cutting into the soil. Note that the part inserted into the soil must be 1/3 of the leaves, at least two centimeters. Stand the leaves upright and let them grow without falling. Pour some water and wet the soil. Just wait 1 month, and new roots will grow.
Second, aloe cutting precautions 1, pay attention to cleaning.
Aloe cutting is actually a risky practice, and the survival rate is not high. Therefore, in order to increase the survival rate of aloe cutting, we must pay great attention to cleaning. No matter when cutting aloe leaves or drying aloe slices in the shade, you should not be infected by bacteria, otherwise the front fork will not take root.
2, the temperature is suitable
Aloe vera should pay great attention to the appropriate temperature when cutting. The temperature should not be too low or too high, and it is best to keep it at 25 ~ 28℃. Aloe that has just been cut and has not taken root is even weaker, so it must not be placed in an environment below 20 degrees.
3, keep the soil moisture
Aloe needs water during its growth, so it should not be too dry when it is cut. We need to keep the minimum humidity of aloe cutting soil, and the optimum water content is 50% semi-dry and semi-wet, and the water content must not be too much, otherwise the aloe will rot before it takes root.
4. Plenty of light
Aloe needs plenty of sunshine when cutting, and the leaves of aloe cutting will face the sun. Only aloe exposed to sunlight can carry out photosynthesis, transport nutrients to the soil and promote rooting. Note, however, that aloe vera is very weak at this time and does not need strong light, so it can be placed in a semi-cloudy environment under astigmatism.
Conclusion: Through the above introduction, I believe everyone already knows the method of aloe cutting culture. If you have aloe at home, you can also try the above cutting method and try to plant a new aloe.
