Growth

Growth of Aloe : 

5/3/18- Aloe plants should be planted in a wide plant with soil that is well drained. When plants aloe buds make sure to give space between them. These plants should be placed in light or under a light and have the room 55-80 degrees. Make sure not to give your plant too much light or they will start to die out. Aloe plants like to be watered deeply but not until the soil is dried out. If you over water an aloe plant too much it will die easily. Watering an aloe plant around every three weeks is good and in winter even less. If you are planning on leaving your aloe plant outside, make sure you take into consideration your climate because aloe plants can freeze.

Growth of Succulents: 

5/4/18- When looking for succulent plants make sure to look for ones with no damage or bugs/disease around the plant.  Once you have your plant and are ready to plant it put it in well-drained soil because succulents like to be dry. You can practically plant a succulent in any type of pot if it has a hole in the bottom and can drain the water out. Succulents with leaves that pucker aren’t getting enough water and ones with soggy leaves are holding onto too much water. Get into a regular watering schedule to help plants thrive. Succulents love light and can be in the sun for 6-8 hours. Make sure you keep an eye on your succulents and pick off dead leaves if needed or keep maintenance up.

Growth of Cactus: 

5/4/18- Strong light is essential for healthy cacti, especially in the winter. During the active growth period, cacti prefer hot, dry temperatures, ranging from 70 F to more than 80 F. In the winter, the plants prefer a cooler period, down to 55 F. In the spring and summer, when the plant is actively growing and blooming or both, water whenever the soil begins to dry. During these watering's, make sure the plant is thoroughly watered. During the winter barely water the plant for a rest period. Pot into a fast-draining cacti mix.  Cacti are slow-growing plants and will rarely need re-potting.
