  • treehugger80 I was reading that they produce more when they are pot bound but the problem is they become top heavy in a pot too light and topple over all the time

    Hi Chriss ,when you mentioned  constant outbreaks of acne I thought of  the Neem Oil I have,perhaps you might want to just have a look at it,    NEEM OIL

    I prefer not to take the whole plant out of the pot to get the babies, so I very gently have a dig around the root of the baby then gently ease it out by wiggling it out. I then pot it on into its own pot, with compost made up of a 25% sharp sand, 25% grit and 50% compost

    i have one and i use it on my eczema and it is brilliant when it gets red and sore, by the next day all the redness is gone and almost healed, it's great for mosquito bites too, i used them when i was in malaysia as they grow everywhere.

  • Hi I am an undergrad student looking to do a project on Aloe and need to find some large plant leaves to extract the gel from. This will be used to redo a study looking into antibiotic properties. I live on the south coast so if anyone is local and interested please e-mail [email protected] thanks

  • Hi, I am desperate to get my hand on some aloe barbadensis plants for my home. If anyone is splitting or has spares then please can you consider me? [email protected]
