Can safely say I now have a solid idea of what my monster of a plant needs. (3 years old and it's in the largest pot I could find in IKEA) I left it in my flat at uni for 3 months in lockdown (with no watering) and I came back thinking it would be dead from dehydration... it's made half a dozen pups (two of which are ready to repot and four more showing themselves) and is now back to full strength!
I was given an aloe last spring. It was maybe 6" tall. I left it out last summer and it's out this summer. It is huge now and has 4 pups that are larger than the original plant. The pot is sooo overcrowded. I'm going to repot in a few weeks. Great video!!!...ty
So glad I watched this video. Bought a beautiful aloe vera today and it has a lot of babies. Will be repotting it tomorrow and had no idea , i would need to separate the babies. I was just going to repot the entire thing 😆. Thank you so much for this extremely helpful video.
Hi! Thanks for this video. It's hard to cover everything in one video but you explained everything necessary. Just one little thing I'd like to add is to choose a shallow but wider bowl type of a pot for aloe vera. I Avoid cocopeat because it retains water and rots the aloe vera since it's a succulent plant. Also, use 25% coarse sand that is available in the building supply store with 25% compost and mix well with 50% of the old garden soil that it came from so the changing shock is minimal but it gets nutrition too. Keep the newly planted pups and mother plant in a shaded area although not in the dark. You can bring the mother plant out in the sun after 7 to 10 days but let the pups remain in the shade a few days longer and bring them under direct sunlight according to their growth. It needs plenty of sunlight and too much shade will turn the leaves yellow and standing water will rot it.
I was gifted a beautiful aloe Vera plant 🪴 and I thought it would die on me because I wasn’t sure how to take care of it other than watering it once every two weeks. Now it’s growing out of control to my surprise with at least 50 pups, it definitely needs to be replanted. Your video was very helpful, thank you so much 😊
I watered my aloe and it turned brown I really thought it was dead, I put it by another plant and sorta forgot about it, a month later it was green again with lots of pups around it, so glad it didn’t die
SAME BUT IF I LEAVE IT, I DONT SEE IT IMPROVING SO I REMOVE IT FROM ITS POT THEN TRIMMED ITS ROOTS THEN AIRDRIED IT FOR A DAY. ON THE NEXT DAY, I REPOTTED IT AND ON THE NEXT DAY AGAIN, IT TURNED GREEN.
@@hmmwong2642 That sounds scary because if you don't let the cut dry sufficiently, you can run the risk of bacteria and rot. But it sounds like you didn't cut high enough for that to be too much of an issue
@@cijae7982 I've heard everyone say once month. They will be happier underrated than over watered. That's just how their genes are because they're desert plants. The indication to water is the dirt is fully dry and you can even let the plant shrivel and turn red, that just means they're using their water reserves and they're fine
We love doing this at end of summer to populate the house with cuttings and summer patio specimens over winter. They suit the low light indoors and also do wonders for air purity indoors. Come June, they do well enough outdoors in Southern England.
I have a lot of them outside my apartment. I will try to get the compse. I don't usually use any but now I think mine deserve a compose since they have grown so big, and a lot of pups are with mother. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Great Video! My aloe plant used to grow pups on the plant itself. They had no roots, I just took them when they started falling off, planted them, and they grew. I sadly sold the plant when I moved, but it produced at least 50 in its lifetime. 🥰🥰🥰
I have a monster aloe that I'm trying to figure out what to do with it. This was helpful. I was surprised you tucked the hanging roots into the soil instead of giving them a trim, but I really don't have a lot of experience with them. Thanks for the tips!
I had a big parent plant. I did the same thing you did in this video. But I think I did it wrong. Didn't wait like you suggested time. Thank for this video it helped.
It helps to wait until the cuts callus over, but saying that, your plant could grow just fine. It's always better to let any succulent that's been cut to dry a bit before planting though. It increases the chance of a healthy plant and successful rooting. Next time :)
Great video! Thanks! I have two aloe plants and some pups have come in and I'm looking to replant them because the pots they are in now are too small...
ビデオを見せてくれて本当にありがとうね。とても役に立つんですよ。アロエベラの植物がたくさん有ります。I own and grow these wonderful creatures. I forest my house with them however, I was running out of room for these creatures until I saw your amazing video- just in time for life saving techniques- thank you also by the way these succulents really appreciate the gravel rocks since they take little water-such techniques should help accommodate there lifestyle. 凄いですよねこれ。またありがとうね。
Great video! I’ve done this before with small aloes like you showed in the video but I have one that is absolutely massive that I’m scared to try to separate. It’s in a 20 inch pot and is so big it’s literally draping over the sides and almost touching the ground. It also has these big flower bud things growing really tall out of it that I’ve never seen from an aloe before. It’s a plant that started when I separated it and planted it as a baby and when I moved away from my parents home my dad just repotted the whole thing into a huge pot and let it grow massive.
PrettyAliceMoon PrettyAliceMoon What a gorgeous plant it must be! Does it have a name? :) If it’s doing okay then I’d leave it alone too. Big aloes can be separated but I’ve not done it myself either. It can take a couple people to just lift some!
Lovely Greens • Gardening, Beauty & Beekeeping Yes it’s beautiful! It took both my dad and uncle to bring it inside during a rare Texas freeze we had this winter. I occasionally cut of leaves and use them (peeled of course) in my beauty products. They make my soaps and other things very nice. I would love to see videos of how you use them.
I imagine there was a bit of huffing and puffing! Lovely to hear that you're using it already. Beauty videos, including aloe, are on the cards this year. Stay tuned :)
So I was letting my baby aloe vera dry out before transplanting them like you said. I came home from work yesterday and my dad had found them, thought I was neglecting them and had put them all in water 🙃🙃🙃🙃 Well intentioned but annoying. Hope they still survive.
Oops. I hope I didn’t water mine too much. I had 16 pups and re-potted them yesterday. I watered them, before reading your notes 😬 😱 I hope I didn’t kill them. Planned to gift them to friends and family. Anyway. Thank you for this detailed video. It was very helpful
Thanks for this video. You shared so much. Through guidance from a different video, I replanted an aloe and it's pup. I let the pup callus for a day, and dusted it with cinnamon. You didn't suggest that. Hopefully it lives and didn't harm the root system. But again, thank you for sharing so much; from the sort of soil to use, topping of alpine pebbles, when to repot, when to water and feed. I feel more informed and confident from watching. ✊🏾
Cinnamon is unnecessary. Some people use it to try stimulating root growth or to keep ants away but I’ve never used it and probably never will. Just another step and expense that wastes time, money, and resources
I named my aloe vera plant Al and he has a baby plant and I was wondering the what was going on. I don't know how to garden so this video helps thanks.
Thank you for posting this! I really needed some guidance with my aloe vera! I have lots of babies and now I'm realizing I need more pots to plant them in... Off to the store I go! 😂
For the price, instead of Perlite, I like to use paver sand to help with drainage. Seems to work so far on the lettuce, chives, potatoes, and mint. Now that I know what I need to do with the plant I will do that, and probably try harvesting some Aloe to make some Juice and gel.
Paver sand is also called polymeric sand. It contains polymers (chemical compounds) that help the sand to set. I wouldn't use it in any of my potting mixtures. You can get horticultural grit or sand that won't have these compounds in them, though.
I just bought an aloe vera and am impressed with your video. I'm from San Diego county and had the plant growing outside--no care needed, but now I live in OR and miss my plant so much. Thanks for the re-potting video
Hello I'm new to your video channel I love how you break everything down and explain it very well to understand I bought my first aloe vera plant it has two leaves on it that has brown at the very tip so I ran across your Channel and I am glad look forward to seeing more of your wonderful videos and wish you well
Succulents are crazy easy to take care of. They rarely need watering. I'm sure in the Isle of Man you never need to water them. They easy to propagate.
Thank you, great video and advice. I didn’t think about bringing them inside during the winter months. And the gravel on top of the pots, is a great idea. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
Hello. I just saw your video and I really appreciate the step by step tutorial. However I have a question, after you plant the parent aloe Vera and the baby aloe Vera, how often do you water it when it’s in direct sunlight? Do you put it directly to the sunlight after replanting them? Can you keep it indoors and how often do you water them if they are indoors? I hope you can see this and respond to me as soon as possible. Thank you so much 🙏🙏
Aloe vera naturally grows in the desert. I water mine just once a month, untill the soil is thouroughly soaked. can absouluty be kept inndoors. if you can put them somewhere with sunlight its better.
Hi, someone shared a very small piece with a group of us for Earth Day this year. It had four little prongs to it but, no roots at all. They did tell us not to water it until it dries out. To date, I have 2 very small appendages to it, and have lost one of the originals. I thought it might not be getting enough light so I moved it. Someone on YT said it could be outside but not in direct sunlight;after 2 days of that it appeared weaker and about to die. I brought it back inside this morning to the indirect sun position, then I decided to watch some UA-cam and came across your video. I have not finished viewing it yet. Will any roots develop for me if I am patient or should I just seek out another plant?
Plant it up to the bottom of its leaves in a pot of free-draining potting mix and place it indoors in a bright place out of direct sunlight. Water it every now and again but try to forget about it. It may begin to grow roots after some weeks.
Lovely! A thought....for your 20k giveaway maybe a "all you need to make it" kit for lip balm or some other goody? The more I enjoy your lip balm the more I want to make it :)
i have a monster aloe plant,it got its first pup.been waiting forever for it and i was just wondering do they grow more pups in a small pot because of how big mine is its in a larger pot.
It was a nice and informative videos. I recently bought a new aloe vera plant from the nursery. After repotting, its colour started changing.What should I do now.
I’ve had aloe turn brown on me twice from having it outside and it getting too much sun. If it’s outside or in a window that faces the direction that gets the most sun (that’s south for me in Canada) , you could try moving it to another spot with less direct sunlight. If that’s not it, it may be too wet at the base of the roots. If the roots are soaked, you could take it out of the pot and lay out the soil to dry a bit. I’ve had both of these problems and had the plants recover nicely.
Hey great video tons of info🤗👍🏽couple questions, Is it harmful to the aloe if you plant them too deep? I know you did yours just above the root. Also I peel the leaves from the bottom up, and just had to cut a mother up the stem including all roots to HOPEFULLY grow again 😰🙏🏾🙏🏾 and last of all, after repotting mother and babies separately- straight away!! I know 😣 sorry didn't know before they needed a day or so, should i uproot and start again??
If you plant the leaves or crown of the plant, they can begin to rot and the plant can die. And no, just leave them. Aloe is much more resilient than you'd think :)
One thing to keep in mind, compost in the US is something entirely different from what she is calling compost. What she is calling compost, we call potting soil in US. Compost in US is decomposed organic matter. Don't use that in your potted plants. Thanks for the video!
Hi, I am re-potting my aloe and separating the baby aloe... I am letting it stand at room temperature including the parent aloe since I cannot use the old soil. I just bought cactus soil and perlite on amazon. My cactus soil will arrive aug 24; however, my perlite will arrive a week after. Will it be okay to pot my parent and baby aloe with just cactus soil first? Then dug them out again and replant again when my perlite arrives? Hoping to hear your feedback/reco. ☺️ thank you
Thank you for the very informative video, i just seperated my aloe vera pups. I think i had 2 mother plants, now 11 seperate aloe veras drying. I will repot them in a few days, though how long untill you know if they survived?
They are hardy plants, and if each has roots, you can be confident that they'll grow. You'll know for sure if the plant stays perky and when you can spot roots growing out of the drain holes.
I left my pups to dry for a day before i repotted the pups..is that okay? And some of the pups doesnt have roots... will it survive? And some of the pups' leaves are curling.. help pls... i was just too excited to see pups on my aloe vera plant, it was a gift from a friend didnt expect to gets lots of pups from it.
New subscriber here. I started to plant alor vera like few months ago and unfortunately, haven't got a chance to see them growing as big.. i noticed that their leaves are becoming dry. Please note, I put them directly in the sunlight, also I dont overwater them. What should I do? Thankyou in advance
I have a plant with 3 pups, and I moved recently, and some of the leaves look really bad. Is it okay to split them now? Or should I wait till they look better? I've had this plant for almost 25yrs...
lovely video. where do you buy compost for potted plants? when look up big stores, they either sell fertilizers or bone meal or chicken manure. I am planting babies tomorrow :) big thanks!
Can safely say I now have a solid idea of what my monster of a plant needs.

Matthew Brooker Great gardening tradition- you must have a lot of aloes :) Or do you gift them away too?
Thank you so much for sharing your gentle way of repotting aloe vera! It's inspiring and informative🥰

They are the plant that keeps on giving! Great video, thank you!
Oh my gosh yes! Once you have one plant, you have plants for life :)
Brilliant explanation on how to replant Aloe Vera.! I learned a lot from you here! Thank you so much.

This is not only for aloe Vera but applies to all succulents.
Went using soil rub your nails on a bar soap to prevent soil getting in your nails. I always wear gloves. Thank you for sharing.
I was just going to repot the entire thing . Thank you so much for this extremely helpful video.
You are so welcome!

like goldfish lol

I wanted to know if and how can Aloe Vera plants be taken outdoors time to time or for a short period?
I wish I watched this before repotting all my pups
that's a lovely idea seed swapping.
Thank you very nice video and how old is your mother plant?? Thanks for sharing
My aloë has grown so 'wild', now I can devide it and give some away!
I’d love to know how you use your aloe for skincare
Simply put the inner gel right on the skin.
Hi, someone shared a very small piece with a group of us for Earth Day this year. It had four little prongs to it but, no roots at all. They did tell us not to water it until it dries out.

thanks for the info, hading off to divide my aloe. Another question : Have you knitted that beautiful top ?
:)
Oh dear just repotted babies but I didn't wait , I just planted, hope they're okay!!
They'll probably be fine. It's far better to let them callus over though just to avoid any rot or diseases getting into your plants.
@@Lovelygreens they're looking okay, we'll in a few weeks if they actually are haha. Great video which I watched it sooner
Just a thought - but, I'd be inclined to try washing away the compost with a spray hose, then I'd see what I'm doing.
Thank you for your feed back. Great videos.. Tram
that green color looks so lush on them!
Great tutorial! Show us how you put it in some skin care!
Dolly Perry Summer project maybe? :)

as easy as it sound but i came here to see how to grow huge and long leaf aloe vera ...thats the most important to get the most out of it

That’s very kind of you to say David :) Thank you
I use Alo Vera for skin care, eye care, hair care, for burns, and for skin wounds. There are many mefical uses also.

came to know so many things thanks
How can we encourage aloe vera to produce more pups?
Hi, I am re-potting my aloe and separating the baby aloe... I am letting it stand at room temperature including the parent aloe since I cannot use the old soil. I just bought cactus soil and perlite on amazon. My cactus soil will arrive aug 24; however, my perlite will arrive a week after. Will it be okay to pot my parent and baby aloe with just cactus soil first? Then dug them out again and replant again when my perlite arrives? Hoping to hear your feedback/reco. ☺️ thank you
My First time repotting aloe Vera cuttings,i don't think I took all cuttings with roots from mother plant ,will the now not root properly and spoil
thanks for this great vedio.
How long should you wait for the baby pups to “heal” before you transplant them into another pot?
At least 24 hour I believe
Great video! When should I water the alovera pups after they have been transplanted? Thanks. :)
You can water them in as soon as you plant them up :)
Thank you for the Video! Much appreciated!!!
Thank you for the very informative video, i just seperated my aloe vera pups. I think i had 2 mother plants, now 11 seperate aloe veras drying.
I will repot them in a few days, though how long untill you know if they survived?
They are hardy plants, and if each has roots, you can be confident that they'll grow. You'll know for sure if the plant stays perky and when you can spot roots growing out of the drain holes.
@@Lovelygreens thank you :)
So if I put an inch of aquarium rock Tumblr and regular compost for the kind you buy at Walmart that will work just fine?
I left my pups to dry for a day before i repotted the pups..is that okay? And some of the pups doesnt have roots... will it survive? And some of the pups' leaves are curling.. help pls... i was just too excited to see pups on my aloe vera plant, it was a gift from a friend didnt expect to gets lots of pups from it.
I repotted my pups yesterday without letting them sit out of soil. Should I pull them out of the soil?
Thank. Ya.
Nice Dear
Its helpful for me
I transplanted some pups just last week. When should I water them?
Please only water when the soil is dry.
This is a great vid thank you for sharing ✅
New subscriber here. I started to plant alor vera like few months ago and unfortunately, haven't got a chance to see them growing as big.. i noticed that their leaves are becoming dry.
Please note, I put them directly in the sunlight, also I dont overwater them. What should I do? Thankyou in advance
I have a plant with 3 pups, and I moved recently, and some of the leaves look really bad. Is it okay to split them now? Or should I wait till they look better? I've had this plant for almost 25yrs...
Personally I’d wait until it recovers. 25 years old as well! It must be massive
Carol Olsen - did your 25 yr old Aloe survive?...
@@judywhite7782 No it didn't. Thank you for asking.
@@carololsen4243 - did the pups survive and thrive at least?
well done ., so how long they gonna grow again when first separated. thank you
lovely video. where do you buy compost for potted plants? when look up big stores, they either sell fertilizers or bone meal or chicken manure. I am planting babies tomorrow :) big thanks!
From garden centers that also sell houseplants. You can order it online too.
When you say "compost" are you talking about potting mix? Because I've never heard of putting Aloe into compost
Yes, apologies. In Britain, potting mix is called compost, and I picked it up. I usually say potting mix these days, though.
Thank you . . . And my Aloe thanks you ❤
