How do you take care of your aloe
vera during the wet or rainy season? A couple of months ago, the wet season
started here in the Philippines, Most people call it the rainy season. If you grow Aloe vera plants,
you might want to make slight Changes in how to take good care of
your plants during the wet season. Aloe vera is originally a desert plant, adapted
to thrive in arid conditions with minimal water. However, over time, it has shown
remarkable adaptability to various Climates and weather conditions where it is grown. This resilience allows Aloe vera to
flourish in diverse environments, From deserts to more humid and temperate regions, As long as it receives proper care, including
well-draining soil and adequate sunlight. If your Aloe vera are planted directly
on the ground, the only real issue you Will face during the wet season is that
nearby weeds and grasses may grow more Quickly than usual, which could stunt
the growth of your aloe vera plants. But, If your Aloe vera plants are potted like Mine, weeds are not much of a
concern but nutrient leaching. Prolonged and heavy rainfall can cause
nutrients in the soil to leach out More quickly. Water flowing through the
soil can wash away essential nutrients. As nutrients are washed away, the soil
may become less fertile, requiring Replenishment to ensure that plants continue
to receive the necessary elements for growth. You may consider fertilizing your potted Aloe
vera plants more often during the wet season. I recommend incorporating organic
matter like compost into the soil To improve its structure and
nutrient-holding capacity. In my experience, aloe vera reacts
more favorably to organic debris, Such as composts and animal manure
than it does to commercial fertilizers. Also, you may add a layer of small
gravel or pebbles on top of the soil. Mine are semi-composted durian peels that
I sourced from a friend. These may also Serve as a natural fertilizer when they decompose. This helps prevent soil splashing and can
reduce moisture retention at the surface. Aloe vera has a shallow, spreading root
system that allows it to quickly absorb Water during heavy rains. The roots are also adapted to
withstand temporary water logging. However, prolonged water logging may occur during
the wet season if your pot is not well-draining. This will make your Aloe vera
plant sit in water longer and
May eventually cause the plant's root to rot. It's not all bad for Aloe vera
during the wet season. This is Also the season when the plant
thrives and produces more pups. Producing pups is a natural way for
Aloe vera to propagate and ensure its Survival. The rainy season provides
ideal conditions for reproduction. Rain can help in the natural cycling of nutrients
in the soil, making them more available to plants. The increased moisture can enhance
nutrient uptake by the roots, Providing the necessary elements
for growth and pup production. Lastly, another observable change that can Happen to the plant during the wet
season is in the plant's leaves. The Aloe vera leaf has a waxy cuticle that
helps prevent excess water absorption and Protects the plant from fungal infections,
that can occur in overly wet conditions. But, during the wet season, this waxy cuticle is
stripped off slightly because of too much rain, Resulting in leaves with uneven patches. However,
this does not affect the gel inside the leaves. I hope you learn something from this video.
This is Danny and thank you for watching.
