Just a quick FYI- there is a part of the aloe that can be extracted and is edible, but the whole plant isn’t safe. I wanted to mention that because many people have their aloes in the house and it’s a good idea to keep it out of reach of kids and pets. 😊

i live in ireland. you can't even kill ants with a magnifying glass with direct sun. they just get little towels out and tan

[lalohuante]

one tip to lessen the bad smell: Cut your piece of length wise down the middle after cutting off your plant. Position the piece on a couple of napkins so that the piece is slightly tilted downward. After a few hours (2-4) A greenish - yellowish liquid will drip off of the cutting and seep into the napkin. That is the liquid that gives off the bad odor. Discard the napkin and enjoy your odorless aloe piece.

I grew up having an Aloe in my apartment, after 6 years it had it's first pup, a pup I claimed as mine. Now, 12 years later, that pup has given me over 16 pups. Yes. 16. I will be taking one to my college dormitory to continue taking care of Aloe. Thank you for your time!

When I just bought my Aloe Vera I noticed it wasn't doing well. I repotted it in a pot with a drainage hole. I noticed the roots were rotting because there were almost none left and they smelled really bad. I also started to water him the proper way, and after a few weeks, I noticed some roots coming out of the holes on the downside of the pot. I was very proud of myself!
A little tool I like to use to check if I have to water again is to put a small wooden stick, like a skewer, in the soil the day after watering it, so it won't rot because of too wet soil. When I think it's time to water again I just take the wooden skewer out of the soil and feel if it's dry or not. When it's still moist, just put it back in there and check again after a day or two. If you take it out and it's dry, it's time to water again.

I bought an aloe Vera 5 years ago and had it in my room for about a year. I then moved to a different room in the house and didn’t bring my aloe to my new room. I completely forgot about it for 3 years before I took it back. It wasn’t watered in 3 YEARS and it was sitting in front of a south facing window and it survived! I just repotted it and it’s doing Great now :)

I got an aloe Vera plant for my hair it leaves your hair extremely soft and thick and it’s amazing for split ends! Perfect way to use it is too get the gel mix it in the blender with virgin olive oil or coconut oil and leave that in your hair and cover with a cap for hours and results will be amazing!

My experience? I had one, that I basically forgot about for well over 5 years. It looked like a pile of dried grass. But as I was about to toss it, I saw two teeny bits with a very slight hint of green, so I put each of them into a succulent arrangement, just to see what would happen. They are now two good-sized plants (less than a year later) and one is producing a pup!

My grandma always had these in the window sills at her house. So, I had to have some as well. I love seeing mine and thinking of her.

My experience eating the Aloe (sans skin) has been problem free.

I live in the Caribbean and we were all brought up with the knowledge of the benefits of this super plant.

As a child into my teenage years, it was perfect to ingest (whole, preferably because it has a bitter taste), as well as for topical applications to treat acne, dryness, facial treatments, around eye treatment and leave in hair care and detangler.

Our naturally grown aloes plant has not harmed me, my parents, grandparents and so on. But this is the first time I'm hearing about a toxicity warning though. But thanks for sharing the vid.

We do consume aloe here in Malaysia and in most Southeast Asia country. We usually skinned the harvested leaves and wash off any green gel on the surface which appear to be toxic. It is actually safe to consume with a proper prep and we enjoy it as desserts here. Something more natural to replace jello. And is very refreshing and cooling especially where the climate we live here is like a never ending summer. Great tips by the way. I enjoy all your content and hope to learn more from you. Best wishes from Malaysia.😊😊
