One may also ask, can I cut the top off my aloe plant?
Answer: You mostly see this kind of bare stem on either very old aloes (Aloe vera) or those seriously lacking light. Fortunately, you can easily solve the problem by cutting off the top of the plant and rerooting it. … Place the cutting in a well-lit spot, preferably one that gets a few hours of sun daily.
- Water aloe vera plants deeply, but infrequently. …
- To ensure that you’re not overwatering your plant, allow the top third of potting soil to dry out between waterings.
Subsequently, how do I fix my stretched aloe plant?
Aloe plants absolutely must have bright light to stay healthy. Luckily, if it does etiolate – stretch – then it’s easy to fix. Simply unscrew the top five to eight leaf cluster at the top of the stem, just like a light bulb.
