I have a "rescue" aloe vera plant (found it on an a neglected patio) that is now doing wonderful. I would love to propogate and make new plants from it. Can you do a video on how to do this?

[@lisat9707]

From mine I just get these side plantletes. They grow like bulbs of Lillie's or Tulips as in they make mini mes and seeds are not something I have seen yet

What do you mean by....give it to the plants??? What are you gonna do with it?

Hey! Sorry for the confusion. This video was clipped from a longer one I did about feeding aloe vera to plants - we make a soil drench with fresh blended and diluted aloe to feed seedlings, new transplants/trees, etc. Here is our blog article that has more info about that - homesteadandchill.com/how-to-grow-aloe-vera/

Hey guys glad ur back I was on your cannabis cultivation site. And I got a question. I'm using r.o water for my plants and supplement with aloe powder and silica but I seem to be having calcium deficiency. How much calcium carbonate do u suggest and to top dress? Feed into water or what I appreciate you time

[@lisat9707]

That is a question that would be best answered by looking up supplimentation charts. And if your looking for organic then try eggshells. Either way the amount will depend heavily on your setup from plant type, substrate, lighting period, intensity, growth stage, etc etc. Dosing any setup is rarely covered in detail in video format because you need charts references and experimentation based on your own specific setup. Good luck and happy Googling .... Ooooh. Maybe ask chat gpt😅

Thank you so much!

What do you use raw aloe Vera for?

[@HomesteadandChill]

You can consume the gel in a smoothie, put it on your skin, blend it in water and use it as a fertilizer for plants.

love your videos, this is devin from mars hydro, may i know do you have interest in reviewing our led grow light

[@godsbabygirl1697]

can you reuse the leaf after you extract the aloe

[@HomesteadandChill]

I guess it depends on what you want to do with the leaf but at this stage, the leaf is on its way out and should be composted unless you want to blend the leaf material (it can be a laxative) with the gel to drink or to water plants with.
