What to do if aloe leaves turn black

1. Caused by watering

1. Overwatering

In fact, aloe vera grown in potted plants at home does not need too much water, otherwise water will easily accumulate. Over time, the roots will rot, affecting the normal breathing of the roots, and causing the aloe vera to turn black. At this time, we need to reduce the amount and frequency of watering and change the soil.

2. Too little watering

Although it is relatively drought-tolerant, it cannot be deprived of water for a long time, otherwise the roots will dry out and the leaves will begin to turn black. At this time, we should water in moderation and water thoroughly at one time. We only need to water when the soil is not dry.

2. Caused by soil impermeability

When raising it, some people may not turn the soil for a long time, causing the soil to become compacted, which directly affects the root breathing. In severe cases, the leaves also begin to turn black. At this time, we need to loosen the soil in time to ensure that the soil is well breathable, and the phenomenon of blackening leaves will disappear.

3. Temperature caused

Usually it can grow well at a temperature of 25 degrees. If the temperature is too low, its roots will slowly rot due to the cold, and the leaves will turn black. At this time, we should keep it warm in time and adjust the indoor and outdoor temperatures to facilitate its normal growth. In addition, the temperature should not be too high, especially in summer. Excessively high temperature will burn the leaves, and the leaves will turn black. Therefore, when the temperature is high, it is necessary to cool down appropriately.

4. Caused by improper potting

When repotting, if you are not careful, it is easy to damage its roots. Once the roots are damaged, it will directly affect the leaves and cause the leaves to turn black. Therefore, you must ensure the safety of the roots when repotting. If it is injured, you should take good care of it and wait for it to recover slowly.
