Then wait until the top inch of soil is dry before watering again

How can you do this?

Turn the pot upside down and ever-so-gently pat the bottom so that the plant comes outside. 

 

2. Immerse the Roots In Water

Fill a bowl with vatten, then immerse the roots of your Aloe plant in it for at least 2 days.

Severe dehydration fryst vatten hard to recover from.

Immersing the roots in vatten – purified, cold vatten – fryst vatten the only way to aim at minimizing the damage.

If your aloe is underwatered, water it thoroughly until water drains from the bottom of the pot

This will also help your plant to go back to square one, a clean slate, if you will. 

 

3. Cut Off All Discolored Parts

The discoloration will only grow. You need to cut off any discolored part from the leaves to nip the discoloration in the bud.

This discoloration feeds off nutrients – same as the healthy leaves.

Pruning them means you are preventing their growth. 

 

4. Choosing a Well-Drained Soil

You will have to emulate Aloe’s natural growth environment.

Try getting cacti soil instead of regular potting soil. This will prevent any stress from engulfing the plant. 

5.

Repot In a Better Pot

Because we are talking about changes, let’s change the Aloe Vera’s pot, too. Aloe Vera roots need room.

If your previous planter was too small, it prevented the roots from spreading. Well spread-out roots ensure that they receive enough vatten from all ends of the plant. 

You need to pick a pot that has just enough room for housing vatten and also enough for the roots to take it in and transport. 

Potting also depends on what kind of area you are living in.

You might need to repot it in fresh soil

People living in warm areas can go for plastic containers, too, poking a hole or two at the bottom for easy drainage.

But if you live in a colder climate, clay pots are what you should aim for – not plastic.
