How to Make Your Aloe Plant Grow Bigger

Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis) is a popular plant with some pretty cool health benefits

Aloe plants are known as a medicinal plant and are great for healing minor burns and soothing sunburns

Indoor aloe vera is fairly easy to care for but has a notoriously slow growth rate

In fact, aloe vera plants grown indoors can take up to 4 years to grow from an aloe vera pup (baby plants) to a full-grown plant

Fear not, here are some care tips to get the best out of your Aloe and get it growing!

Aloe Vera plants need good drainage so for best results choose a pot with drainage holes.

Aloe does well in succulent potting soil which  includes coarse sand, perlite, lava rock and/or chunks of bark

Water aloe vera plants deeply, but infrequently

Aloe Vera needs bright, natural light to grow and thrive

You may boost the growth rate with fertilizer. Use a fertilizer specifically made for succulents
