We harvested lots of pears! I share how I process them by canning and making pear powder after juice extraction. I also share briefly about the tomato and grape powder I make from their seeds and peels. And recipe tips for cucumber chips. As I process the pears I share the hymn “Come Unto Me” and expound on it’s message using the pear as an analogy. This is in honor of my mother who will be 92 ...

Aloe Vera - How to Replant

The Aloe Vera Plant has many medicinal uses. I grow Aloe Vera in my Sunroom. This video is to show you how to replant when they get too big for the pot.
Could I use a juicer to do the same thing? Or is it better to do it your way for prickly pears?
@@WDWanda6 this juice does have a lot of mucilage. I don’t know if a juicer would work. I do have a juicer and I’ve never tried it. I don’t think it would work as well, but you can find out.
@@WDWanda6 also the seeds are very hard and you don’t want to crush them in juicer
Amazing plant growing i wish i could grow more aloes.
I took pups off today and I'm glad I found you here,I was afraid I was going to kill it😊
Thank you. I now know how to trim down and repot my beast and puppies.
@@rosemaryesquivel2939 you’re welcome glad it was helpful☺️ God bless 🌸
What a wonderful video! I love the way you dehydrate and mill this. I do something similar, I am a soap maker. I do not have any waste and I absolutely have many byproducts. One thing I do is make not a sugar scrub, but a fruit scrub. How fabulous to watch you. I can’t wait for persimmon season. Yummy and terrific for skin. Thanks for the video🌹
@@HB-yk4ut thank you and I’m glad it was helpful to you☺️God bless 🌸
Just seen this video. I am from the Apache reservation out in Arizona and wanted to get back into this. This video really helped me understand the process or another process I can use to prepare; what we call Pre-reservation diet.
@@Skodenoutdoorsmen Ok! Glad it was helpful! ☺️
2024 you are doing it wrong you cut that long root and plant it in a biger container
The container size depends on the size of the plant. But Aloes grow well in smaller pots where the soil does not stay wet for a long time. You can put in larger pot but do not overwater. It just depends.
Well, now I know everything. I was afraid I'd damage mine, or that new roots will not grow if I break the stem. Nice to know I was worried over nothing. Suggestions? Nah, you won't get a single one. You explained everything.

I found a giant discarded aloe plant nearly three feet tall. Someone left it on the side of the road after a move-out. So I decided to rescue it and all your questions are my questions! And your problem solving is giving me hope I can find a solution for this beauty.

I love eating the stems lol. Hope you come back to us!! Miss your videos!! Much love to you and your family. God Bless!!
I find that it works to cut the roots, then surround the plant with rocks under the soil. This suppports the plant and keeps the pot from tipping. I first found this works with Bromeliads but it would work with Aloe Vera.

thanks..I can plant seeds before dehydrating?
I suppose, I have never done that. The easiest and quickest way to start a new prickly pear cactus is to just plant one of the Naples leaves. You can just lay it on some worked mulch soil and it will grow. Do not have to bury it. Or you can stand the noodle upright and plant a few inches in the ground.
what do you use the aloe for have you made a how to video? thanks much
@@whitefamily4573 I use the gel internally, make a hair rinse, and freeze drying for powder to make creams & soap. I am just starting to freeze dry.
I mention about my hair rinse near the 5 minute mark. czcams.com/video/TCuqood4VNM/video.htmlsi=DSIkd5sv1erF3VRs
Thank you for sharing this video. I wish I could show you my Aloe Vera. It was doing great, It's about 3 feet tall and now wants to tip over. It has a lot of pups and I have been using bamboo sticks to hold it in place as I'm afraid it will break. Your video is great and now I won't be afraid to transplant it along with the pups. Like you, I love Aloe Vera plants and have several in my house. I have transplanted a lot of the pups and given them away to people in our small village. Thanks again. God Bless you and your family.
You’re welcome I am glad I was helpful to you. You can also just cut the large one off leaving a long enough neck after removing whatever leaves you do not want on there and then replant the mother in a separate pot. Then let the pups grow in the original pot. Or you can remove all the pups and mother and repot. You still will have to remove leaves from the mother and if the main stem (neck) is not too long to the bottom where the roots are you may be able to keep roots but you can cut off roots and just replant in damp soil but not to wet. Be sure to leave a good 4-6 inches of main stem. If watched and watered occasionally when dry it should produce new roots.
Thank you sooo much . I watched you video just to know if blended seeds are safe to eat but i learned a lot more . Good work

Thank you for this! I have a big sucker I got from Lowe's and it's leaning now and has 3 pups that need re homed. Thank you for the education! I have to ask though, what's the purpose of the mesh vest?
@@govegan0424 Glad is was helpful. The outfit I was wearing was actually a modest bathing suit, and I prefer to wear the mesh vest when I’m not swimming. It gives a more modest appearance in my opinion. ☺️
@@Gods_creation.His_harvest very interesting! Now I know. Thank you for the explanation and again for the education on the plants!
@@govegan0424 your welcome and God bless ☺️🌸
I have 3 huge ones! They are growing curved and bending to the side. Can I cut the root all the way up to the size I need to have them grow upwards again? Will it survive if I do that? They are just too big the stems are toooo long to turn and twist to to try and fit into new pot. Please help. How can I add pictures here?
@@angelt2379 Yes, remove the pot from the soil and brush off the dirt. Turn it upside down and start pinching and removing all of the lower leaves that you don’t want you can save the ones that have gel in it if you want to use those, but if they’re dried up, just throw them away then keep going until you finally have the leaves that will make it look right when you put it right side up. Then make sure you keep about a 5 inch stem and just cut it and then you can just place that stem in the dirt. Make sure the dirt is slightly moist, just keep it watered occasionally but let dry out some between waterings, and always make sure it drains completely and there’s no water sitting at the bottom. It should grow new roots.
@@Gods_creation.His_harvest I will try it. I don’t have no other choice. I wish I could post a picture. Thank you so much for your help.
Supert ❤️ thank you so much❤️
@@malgorzataplanterhaug600 Glad it was helpful ☺️
Thanks so much. Best aloe video. I have 3 that are massive but floppy due to my dark lil apt. Using larger pot to hold it up is genius and much prettier than trying to tie or stake it.
@@LisaS-nc3nu Glad it was helpful ☺️🌸
What if my stem is nearly 2 feet after trimming all the leaves off?? The aloe is huge but extremely droopy
@@fabuloushairbymelg.6308 just cut the stem to around 4-5”
I never thought about bending the long part to make it fit. That’s genius

So very helpful! I love your Name: GOD’s Everything 🙌🏾 I’ve had an aloe plant for about 1-2 years now and it’s still hanging in there. It’s grown pretty big and has started to make new roots/plants, so I’m looking into replanting! This was very helpful. I was wondering what to do with the big glass pots that don’t have holes at the bottom; I will be going to buy the smaller pots to put inside of them as you did. Thanks for the Tips! ✨

Hello 👋 I know this is an old video, but I'm hoping you'll sill see it. Your cactus are gorgeous 😍 What type are they? I love how they are not so large and they grow a lot of fruit ❤ thank you for sharing this video!
Hello yes it is old but I do get notifications when so one comments ☺️ This are prickly pear Cactus. If you lived by me I would give you one to start your own. They are easy to grow. But require full sun to bear good fruit.
I am so happy I found you! You have a great energy.
Thank you 😊 Glad it was helpful, God bless 🌸
Thank you for this. I've one that's scrawny, leggy and over 2ft tall. Its about to fall over. I had neglected it next to a north facing window (I live in england) but I've moved it to my office which is much brighter. There's been a bunch of pups appeared plus new leaves on the top. I now hope I'm correct in removing the oldest, bottom leaves rather than it's crown and shorten the stem.
Yes, you can pull out whole plant and remove pups to replant elsewhere or add back to pot after you have removed lower leaves and replanted. And yes you may have to cut roots off if too leggy and keep removing leaves until you can have a 3-4” stem and have the plant positioned correctly upright when repotting. Hope that helps ☺️
omgosh this is so so helpful!! Thanks
I am glad it was helpful 🌸☺️ God bless
❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing your expertise - I recently bought my first one at a vintage store. I'm going to re-pot it now that I have a clue lol May God continue to bless you and your family😊😊
I am glad the video was helpful. God bless you also.☺️🌸
This aloe vera variety is barbadensis miller?
Yes
What species is that aloe vera in the video you potted up? Aloe vera perry or linn?
I believe all that I have is barbadensis Miller
@@Gods_creation.His_harvestThanks:)
Thank you for sharing. I have a very large leggy (indoor) aloe, a couple of months ago she SENT UP A PRETTY YELLOW FLOWER! Now that the flower is spent I really need to repot her. Thank you for the video.
Yes, it’s exciting. When you see those flowers come up not all mine produce flowers, but some of the larger ones will 🌸 I’m glad the video was helpful. God bless. ☺️
Hi, sorry. Can i pot aloe with snake plant together? Put a small Aloe in the middle and surround it with Snake plant leaves? Or do you have another suggestion? I live in Texas.
I wouldn’t personally snake plant grows differently than aloe.
Can U poit with snake plants?
I’m not sure about your question are you asking if you can repot snake plants?
I love the family vibz on the farm. Beautiful! Keep the love flowing and the videos coming! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you 😊 🌸
chickweed has a poisonous look alike as well if I remember correctly. The poisonous one has a square stem instead of a round one. Do you know what I’m talking about?
I know it well but if you don’t it is good to know what could appear at first glance as look alikes. Here is a link. Is the one you are speaking of in this article? thehomesteadinghippy.com/chickweed-lookalikes/
why do we need to remove roots
It depends on the plant. How large it is. If it is too leggy then keeping roots will make it hard to transplant. Sometimes you can repot in larger pot. But if it is a very large plant and you are removing lots of lower leaves then just starting fresh with the top part of the plant leaving a good amount of stem will be best. It will grown more roots if cared for properly.
Thank u for the video
You are very welcome 🤗☺️ God bless 🌸
