    Aloes don't need a lot of water so it should have been fine left alone for a few days. The soil looks rather wet. Could it have been overwatered before you went, or by someone else while you were away? Does the pot have good drainage holes to let the excess water drain away?
    Doncaster, South Yorkshire. Soil type: sandy, well-drained
  • Thank you so much, I've just called my mom and she said that she had watered it when I was out of home. Also, after your post I've decided to look at drainage holes and you won't believe, it wasn't cut. Hope, it will survive

    My aloe is an odd one. It hates too much light and gets watered when it looks as if it needs it. I think the term is 'thrives on neglect' though some might have other experience.
