Definitely go for a yearly skin check 😊
I, need your help with my Aloe. I, do not know what to do anymore. I , have lost beautiful Aloes, due to fungus gnats!! What, iamdoing now is this : plant outside, it is summer. I, reported last week, due to these gnats!!! All, over the apartment alond with fruit flies and some other gnats. I, saw another video where she said to order this brilliant type mesh. I have put down to cover the soil. Put, rocks on the mesh. Now, am watering with mosquitoe bits, your way, your measurements. To, me I could be wrong,but does not look like it is doing well. I, need your advice, please. Should send a picture,but it is dark out now. Thank you!
@@jennymoore7623 hi jenny, i believe your question came to me and not Ashley .?
Ps: Ashley, I did not notice any lump on your face. I, was too busy listening to you. I am willing to bet , your followers never notice anything different, also. Ashley, you are self conscious about it !! And, I truly do understand. I am, there every day, at 68 , I still have acne scars. Your, lump will go away, my scars are here to stay.
You, are still just as pretty!! That, is one of the reasons I follow you. You, are so real and down to Earth. Nothing, phoney about you. Not, like some of the young women on CZcams. Look, like they just walked out of a beauty salon, including the fake nails. Thank, you again.
Fun fact baby aloe / pups will have a root to the mother plant when they are ready they will get themselves off the mother plant root.
I came for the plant but that dog! 😍 he’s so curious and just such a good dog! Mine probably would have taken off with my stuff lol 😂
I have a 6 year old aloe vera that is about 4' tall and has produced a flower this year!!!! She gives me about 3-4 dozen pups every year. I am doing to learn how to harvest aloe gel. Thanks for your teaching videos!!!!
Hi I would love to see your plant.
Love the puppy break while you're repotting the pups. 😂
The best!
I have a HUGE one in a pot outside in the full sun in FLORIDA and its got a TON of pups ! Good to know they have shallow roots. now i dont feel like its as pot bound as it looks most likely. Thanks Ashley!
I have a huge one living in the ground in my front yard in Central FL! She gets absolutely drowned during all of the summer storms, but sits in direct sunlight otherwise. Still thriving somehow!
Living in the Phoenix metro, Aloe Vera grows prolific in ground and containers outdoors. When stressed by the sun, the leaves turn brown in color, so I keep my containers in bright shade. They bloom beautifully in February and March bringing the hummingbirds, butterflies, and bees. They are very drought tolerant! Thank you for your how-to videos, Ashley. Your furry friend was a nice intermission to the show. 😄
5 years ago, I planted 3 pups in a very deep 20” pot. In January I decided to thin the container and had over 50 plants to share with others!
Please tell me why my Aloe Barbanensis leaves to turns an orangy-red? Outside in full sun back porch
Sun burn
A blessed appearance by the little dog lol
Love this! So helpful and informative. You’re a joy to watch 🙂
Great video! When I'm propagating aloe I like to loosen the soil to see where the pups connect so I can snip the direct connection or sometimes they just come right off without any cutting! And then I can see the little babies that aren't ready yet and I will just leave them in the pot with mama so they can grow more!
Great video. I love Aloes so much!!! Such easy, beautiful plants. Thanks so much for this!!!! 😃😃😃🌱
Im glad I found u. Im gonna buy those soils. I end up with pest from store bought soils. If u soak terra cotta a couple hrs before planting it wont soak up the water from the soil. I also put a piece of weed barrier ( its thin ) over drain holes so my soil doesnt wash out.
I WISH I WOULD HAVE SEEN THIS BEFORE I GOT MY SOIL BUT FROM NOW ON I WILL BE HAPPY TO USE YOUR CODE THANK YOU ASHLEY 😊
As always, another great informative video. thanks
Omg love your puppy baby. Thanks for your advice with aloe plants 💕
Great vide- very informative and LOVE your Furry assistant💜💜💜💜
Hi Asheiy 👋 you just taught me something I was not aware there was so many different kinds of Collabera plants mine is so big thank you for the get tips😍🥰🤩😁💛🧡🖤👍👍🤟🤟
Thanks for the video. I learned a lot. I’m thinking about purchasing an aloe for my bedroom.
💚 I love it when you have your furbabies on video! Love the larger size. We have 2 pitties. What happened to your littles?
I love your channel! ❤
So helpful!
Oh great information just what I’m looking for as I just purchased a small Aloe vera plant, standard. All the doggie is so cute😍
I have pugs!
I kind of wished you would have watered the re-potted pups. So I would’ve had a good idea of about how much water you would’ve had put into that much soil with that many plants in the planter I would it would it gave me a pretty good idea on how much water I should add for a planner with that much soil in it about that size!😊
Love the dog 😊
Thank you for this video! (And for sharing your cute pup) I'm a new Aloe plant mom and I want it to thrive. I appreciate that the video wasn't too long as well.
I love the pup....just checking things out!
Thank you 😊
Quick Tips :
1) Its a succulent, that chunky foliage is for holding in moisture/water, like a camel. Stop overwatering them, and use soil blends designed for succulents.
2) Once every 4 months when its due for a watering, put it in a bowl with water thats been properly mixed with Root & Grow root stimulator (water all of your plants w/this 1/4 months). Let it soak for 10 minutes, take it out and let the excess drip out into the sink
3) Its not a desert cactus, it does not like being under the direct sun for a majority of the day (it will sunburn). It likes bright light but not many hours of direct sun, if you're going to give it direct sun : Make it either morning or evening sun with bright light the remainder of the day.
4) How do I know when I have everything right? A: Your aloe will be a healthy green (from rich jade to a frosty turquoise), and the foliage will feel nice and plump.
My mom used to put the fallen off bits of the aloe or pups didn't have much roots into clear water for few days or weeks (don't remember exactly) and they produced roots. after they were planted and grown with no problem. how does that work?
Once something roots it can survive on its own in the dirt. It’s pretty cool because people (including myself), have grown a rose bush from a bouquet rose by the stem in clean water and it ends up growing leaves and rooting
@@KeilaKahloi tried growing a rose from a bouquet and it dried out and died. ☹
Thank u for the tip .
That’s what she said!
The one plant I could never get the hang of haha
This was very informative! Thanks! I just picked up a nice Aloe Vera plant from Home Depot and wasn't quite sure how to grow it. Thanks for the advice on soil and watering. These were growing all over the place when I was in Aruba a couple of years ago, so I figured they liked a drier soil.
sweet puppy
Good information
Thank you
❤thank you.
Can I stop root rot ?
I need help I planted a new sprout in a smaller plant in hopes to have a new house plant but it’s dying I changed the lighting and I added coconut water to the soil after everything else failed please help I usually keep it in my window sill I’m in the Bahamas so it’s hot I placed it outside next to other plants invade it was lonely I don’t know what to do anymore 😢😢
Aloe Aloe. What have got here?
I have a huge Alevera plant that is just straight up and it broke at the base. What do I do?
Also, can I use orchid planting mix to transplant it?
Hi, thank you for sharing this. Much appreciated. One question. How soon do I repot my aloe. I just got one a few days ago. It has 4 pups. The pot looks a little cramp. Shd I repot it now or wait a while to allow it to acclimatise to my environment. I live in a high rise apartment in Singapore. It rains every few days here. My plants get direct sunlight in late noon till sunset for about 3 hours on a sunny day. Your advise? Thank you in advance.
I like a lot Aloes i have 5 diferents and the Aloe vera ,that I use a lot in shakes .
I have a bird's eye fern. Could you tell me the best way to care for it? I am a newbie and would like to learn before getting more plants.
As mine have gotten bigger they have spread their leaves wide instead of standing up and they are now leaning over due to the weight. How do I help them?
I’ve been told it’s good luck to have a aloe vera on your front porch
Of course it is good luck. I got thrush in my mouth, took antibiotics, still was miserable . Made another appointment with Md, started eating aloe from my greenhouse and 4 days it was almost gone.
I have chronic dry mouth from using a CPAP, Aloe helps it a lot.
You’re so beautiful and love your aloe ! :)
🤗
Over watering was it bc I love the plant but didn’t understand how and what Ty
Yw! Glad I could help!
I just saw a reply to another video that suggests using aloe gel as a rooting hormone to propogate woody stem plants.
hi love the video. been doing tons or research. from what i found out im pretty sure that the plant in the video is an aloe vera chinensa, non barberensa miller. the chensa is more fan like and has spots on both sides of the leaves. the barbadensis miller doesnt have spots on the inside of theleaves. also the barbadensa miller doesnt grow like a fan shape it grows in much more of a rosette with cicular alternating leaves at the stem. im really not trying to make anyone look silly or be a pest. i just thought you should take into consideration what i found. as far as the entire rest of the video spot on. im wondering if that plant was miss label at the store. just share what i read. the chensis is still medicinal however it is not edible just adding that information thanks and keep making videos i thought it was great
Hi, my first time here. Can aloe survive without direct sunlight but with only light?
💚
I just rescued an aloe vera plant thanks to a staff member letting me and helping me get it! It already had a dead leaf on it! When I found it in the store! And was bone dry there as well! I was thinking that someone was messing with the leaf because it was squashed and rotted out and was easy to pull off the plant! 😢 So my staff member helped me purchase it and brought it home and now soaking it in a bowl of water 💦! Thanks for your video it helps me out a lot!
Cute interruption towards the end. Any tips for repotting dogs??? :-)
Haha
I used to kill Aloe Vera plants until I began making my own succulent/cacti mix. I now use at least half perlite and pumice to the soil mix. Even those commercial brands that label soil as succulent/cacti mix usually do not have enough drainage material in them. There are a couple of hand mixed brands that come from small businesses that have more drainage material in them but big box stores all have less than ideal mixes.
If you watch some people who grow Aloe Vera in other countries they seem to use no drainage material in their soil but most of those areas have very sandy soil. Aloe Vera seem to love sandy soil like that. Since we don’t know the sand to soil ratio in those areas I wouldn’t recommend trying to replicate it. Good perlite and pumice mixed in work well.
I have never used the Repotme brand succulent/cacti soil so I can’t speak about that. I do use the Repotme orchid mix and my orchids have done well with that.
Repot me doesn't seem to have any larger sizes. I need to go from 12 to 16 or so inches, any other recommendations for going higher? I love the slot pots they have!!! Really want a bigger size...thanks :)
Put aloe in a terra cotta pot you don’t like since it can grow really fast and the roots are super strong! Plastic might be better.
I find worn castings are good for them
Hi Ashley, Great Video. I recently bought and Potted an Aloe Vera Plant. The Mother Plant seems to be thriving. Although I used a normal potting mix rather than a Cactus/Succulent Mix since I wasn't aware of it. Would my Plant still be OK? Also, there is one leaf at base of the Mother plant that is sort of rotten and mushy. However, I'm sort of worried about removing that Leaf since there's a very tiny pup right next to the Leaf and I don't want to damage the Pup in the Process. Could you give me some Advice? I'm from Southern Ontario, Canada and I've got my Aloe indoors right by the Window. We don't really get Great Weather most of the times though at the moment we're enjoying our Spring/Summers. Thanks
My huge plant went to seed last summer. I had no idea what was going on. It put off a stem about 2 feet tall and seed started dropping.
Hello, I have to ask you what kind of aloe vera that you could use it to eat some some people they said you could have the jelly it’s good for you to eat them. It should be aloe vera or where is it? Thank you.
Would succulent type plants benefit from distilled water or is hard tap water ok? I know with my terrariums and carnivorous plants both need distilled
The black tray you used I really like but can’t find it at IKEA. Does it have a specific name. Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.
I heard you should give your aloe a good soaking when watering leave it in the water for 10 minutes then remove any excess water is that so?
Any advice on how to encourage pup growth? I've had mine for almost 3 years and it's grown a lot, but has yet to give me a baby... :(
The smaller the pot, the more the babies
My Aloe Vera plant isn't looking very well ,the leaves are going brown and looking wilted ,what am I doing wrong and is it too late to save it?
I don't know which one I have, it came with no label or care instructions, just a plain pot. Is there a way I can check exactly what type it is?
Please tell me What causes the whole leaf to turn an orangy-red?
Hahahaha so cute
How much water do you give them
Guy I need help. All my soil and substrate has miracle grow in it.
Can I do it in that? Help!

You did say how much for water is needed for them size pots
Why won’t getting bigger and fater my one , I always put inside kitchen door 11:55 getting lighter before put out side garden direct sun was brown.
Can you root a broken stem
Weekly how many time give water
I have an aloe plant it’s leaning to the side. How do I get it to grow straight up😳
It may need to be repotted or it could need more sunlight. Aloe tends to become bendy and less sturdy if it doesn’t have enough light. Also, coming into the summer months, it does like to be watered once the soil is dried out. Best of luck!
I just repotted it we’ll c what happen 🙂
Can i mix aloe with snake plant
Can we put inside house?
But mom I love to repot 😂
I thought the pot was supposed to be wider at the bottom than the top
Is that incorrect?
Thank you for the information.
I think my aloe has fungus…it’s got black spots.
Could you suggest a natural alternative for the treatment?
Good
If a tiny little bit of the plant has died wots the best thing to do
Thought you weren't to water them for a week after proppigating them?
Why did you plant it so low with soil on the aloe leaves?
I am asking because I have a medium/large aloe and I didn’t do that. So the base of the plant is at top of the soil line in my pot.
I want to make sure I do it right
Tan eik fai l am 22 years malaysia loph😉☺😏💃🐨😚hi💃
TV show how to water it says to order them from the bottom but you didn't show how to do
I had one and killed it 😢 I think I watered it too much
I thought we could only eat 1 kind of aloe ?
In watering you never covered how much water to add
I do not cut the root system I simly pull the plant away from the mother allow them to soak in water for about 4 to 5 hours (roots only) then I plant them. I have had great success with my Aloe. That is until I hired a landscaper who decide there were a few weeds and so he soaked them with weed kliller. Needless to say he is no longer my landscaper and I have returned to handling my own landscaping. NO I did not sue him I just let him leave my property never to return.
It is your language mam
Hahaha pot squared
Know nothing
How are you? I Enjoy your videos I have a question. Hope you could help. I took a Oliveira plant out of a bucket and it was brown and I replanted it in the ground and watered it once how do I get it to go green? Hope to hear from you.
More light
