Signs of Cold Stress in Soap aloe
Symptoms
Soap aloe flourishes in warm conditions and does not handle cold well. Optimal growth occurs when temperatures exceed 65℉. In winter, maintain temperatures above 50℉. If the temperature drops below 40℉, the plant may weaken, droop, and become susceptible to root decay. Minor frost damage might not show immediate signs, but the plant will progressively decline after about a week.
Solutions
Remove any parts affected by frost, checking for root rot. If roots are rotted, trim them and consider propagating new plants from cuttings. Relocate the plant indoors to a warm spot immediately, positioning it near a south-facing window for abundant light. If natural light is insufficient, provide artificial illumination.
Signs of Heat Stress in Soap aloe
Symptoms
In summer, Soap aloe should be kept below 75℉. When temperatures surpass 85℉, the plant will stop growing, lose moisture, wilt, and be more prone to sun damage.
Solutions
Cut away any sunburnt or decayed sections. Protect the plant from direct afternoon sun until it recovers and resumes growth. For plants with root rot, cease watering until new roots start to form.
