Aloe Vera Clump Division: No Water Rooting, Dry Callus, Gritty Soil

Critical: No Water Rooting

Aloe cuttings rot in water. Must callus dry.

Division Steps

1. Separate clumps by hand or knife (keep roots if possible).
2. Callus broken ends 1–2 weeks in shade.
3. Plant in fast-draining mix (cactus + extra grit).
4. Water thoroughly once; then only when dry.
5. Superthrive helps transplant shock.

Stem Planting Depth

Bury unrooted stems 3 inches deep. Stake if wobbly. Roots in 1–2 months.
