Haley Nutrition - your garden soil looks pretty heavy to me. And your plants are in full sun? How about some clues as to what I can do in South Australia east of Adelaid 100km ? i.e. soil - leave out in the open - watering - whatever ?
If the leaves are thin and / or browining they either need some shade or more water. Potted plants are a challenge unless they are the thin plastic pots that are on the dirt. Pots on the concrete or rocks or in porcelain or teracotta... they tend to get too hot and brown the plants. Our pots that are on the pavers / pool deck are on risers so they don't absorb the heat from the pavers. This is how quickly they respond to cooling: ua-cam.com/play/PLpQXhnzXkRxNQ22cGvOlfEkfEMlhbvgH4.html
why be so insistent on a short stem - which will be all root, all planted in the ground ? Longer stem = longer, more, roots, deeper ?
Roots are thin don’t need as much water. Shorter stem means roots dry quicker so no rot
@@rebicul thanks for that. I just had a small aloe vera got some rot and all died. I couldn't save it. I think maybe over watering. I am a novice. Is it a major danger with them? Perhaps very important to have very well drained soil?

-If you are going to grow that plant in a pot, choose cactus soil that sold in stores because it has high drainage and put it in a pot with holes.
-Watering it once a week in summer and once every 2 weeks in winter is sufficient.
-Only morning sun sufficient, do not place it in a place that gets full sun all day long.
-Do not place it in deep pots, you can change the pot as the plant grows.
@@nucrow4729 I don't like buying proprietary mixes. Like to make my own. Got a recipe? Where do Aloe Vera come from, then ? I mean habitat. If they only can stand morning sun? I thought they were a sort of desert plant. But desert plants don't only get morning sun, do they?
Looks like habitat is very important to them so it becomes important where we are. Morning sun for me might be like full sun for someone else.
I am in South Australia and I'm a new and very amateur grower. I find placing of plants a bit problem. Summer hot days killed my Loquat seedlings, burned them to death. Then a couple of months later, like now, and the sun moving around has put the one I still have - and the poinsettia - into full afternoon shade! I'm thinking that's not going to be good for them. I feel they need more sun than that.
Yes, so advice, looks to me, has to be tailored to where the guy is who's getting the advice, some of these things seem to be so delicate. What do you think?
@@abrogard142 I think you right, I never thought of it this way I mean I live in Istanbul and we have mild climate here I guess I live in a place with easy difficulty level for growing plants in terms of climate😅 so different climates should be have different rules
They are not "babies," the actual horticultural term is "pups."
A pup is a baby dog or seal. Therefore baby is perfectly correct.
@@seacee4803 A new shoot on an aloe vera plant is called a pup in horticulture, not a baby. The things you mentioned about dogs and seals are completely irrelevant to that fact. If you want to sound credible, use the proper terminology. Or don't. I was just trying to help you. Calling new shoots babies is not perfectly correct.
